  • Brake Control Wiring Adapter for Installing Tekonsha Primus Brake Controller in 2016 Toyota 4Runner
  • The # 3041-P isn't included with the Tekonsha # TK90160 Primus brake controller, it's sold separately. One end of the # 3041-P would plug into the rear of the controller, the other end would plug into the brake controller connector located above and to the left of the emergency brake pedal. There is a ground wire with a ring terminal that needs to be grounded to metal under the dash, but there will be no cutting or splicing required.

  • Wiring to Look for Installing Westin Lighted Running Boards for 2022 Toyota 4Runner
  • Thank you for the purchase of the Westin Molded, Lighted Running Boards w/ Custom Installation Kit # 27-0005-1945 for your 2022 Toyota 4Runner. According to my research the driver's side trigger wire is a dark green and then a purple after the junction connector and then the passenger's side is gray and then light green after the junction connector. You'll need to use a circuit tester to verify these functions prior to making any splices into your wiring. Once you have the correct wires...

  • Installing Redarc Trailer Brake Controller on 2019 Toyota 4Runner Using Tekonsha Plug-In Adapter
  • You can absolutely install the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR on your 2019 Toyota Tacoma using the Tekonsha Plug-In Harness # 3041-P. The vehicle end of the harness will plug right into the factory port behind the dash of your Tacoma, but since the controller end won't match up to the Redarc unit, you will just need to cut off the plug and hardwire it to the controller's pigtail. The wiring from the Plug-In Harness matches up color by color to the Tow Pro's pigtail...

  • Will etrailer.com Windshield Cover # 288-06603 Damage Weatherstripping on Vehicle
  • For as many units of the # 288-06603 as we've sold, not one customer has reported any sort of damage to their vehicle door's weatherstripping. So, it's safe to say that unless you plan on leaving the cover on for months and months at a time (other covers are available specifically for long term storage), you have nothing to worry about. Automotive weatherstripping is typically made of a mixed rubber material that is naturally very elastic and long lasting. Before closing the doors, just...

  • Does the SportRack Roof Rack Lock to the Side Rails of a 2016 Toyota 4Runner
  • The SportRack roof rack # SR1098 for your 2016 Toyota 4Runner features a special fastener that requires a special tool (included) to tighten or loosen the rack on the factory side rails on the vehicle. So while it isn't a traditional lock it is a theft deterrent because of the uncommon fastener/tool. For a system with traditional locks (at the feet and bars) I recommend Malone roof rack # MPG201. I have linked a video review of this roof rack for you.

  • Where to Connect Blue Wire for 4-Way to 5-Way Adapter on a 1999 Toyota 4Runner
  • The Tow Ready 4 Pole to 5 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter # 20036 will connect directly to the 4-Way on your 1999 Toyota 4Runner 4-Way like part # 118341 and then according to my research you will need to splice the blue wire to a Red/Yellow wire behind either of your tail lights for the reverse light function. You will want to verify this wire color with a circuit tester like part # PTW2991 though as your vehicle is older and some wiring could have been swapped out.

  • Can a 2014 Toyota 4Runner Be Flat Towed Behind a Motorhome
  • I looked up the manual for your 2014 Toyota 4Runner and on page 191 under "Dinghy Towing" Toyota states not to tow your vehicle with all 4 wheels on the ground so you need to get a trailer to transport your 4Runner. Some people like to put magnetic lights on their trailered vehicle and tie those in to the trailer lights so other people on the road get more of a full picture of what's going on. If this is what you'd like to do then I recommend checking out the Optronics Magnetic Lights...

  • How to Attach Weight Distribution Chain Hangers to Trailer When Top of Frame is Inacessable
  • In a situation where using the normal style chain hanging brackets isn't feasible because the top of the trailer frame isn't accessible, I'd recommend using a bolt-on hanger like part # RP58305. I wouldn't recommend using a chain hanger from a different company, because the parts haven't been tested together. Draw-Tite and Reese are sister companies under the same parent company, Cequent Performance Products, which is why using the Reese bolt on hanger would be okay.

  • How to Install Reverse Circuit on ETBC7 for Boat Trailer with 7 Way Plug and Surge Brake Actuator
  • The reverse light circuit on a 7 way plug like the # ETBC7 will be the center pin/blade on the plug, so you'll want to splice into the reverse light circuit on your vehicle and connect it to the 7 way. You can use some 10 gauge wiring # 10-1-1, which is sold by the foot and splice it together with a butt connector like the Deka Heat Shrink Butt Connector - 12-10 Gauge - Nylon Insulation - Yellow - Qty 5 # DW05745-5.

  • What Is Green Wire for on Factory Brake Controller Harness for 2019 Toyota 4Runner
  • In regards to the green wire on the factory harness, this won't be used. It's for an illumination circuit that is not used on most newer brake controllers.

If you want to use the provided factory harness you can instead use the Universal Wiring...
