  • The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch # 76290 that fits your 2019 Honda Passport will not interfere with the hands-free liftgate feature.

  • Brake Controller for 2020 Honda Passport
  • There are no brake controller harnesses available for a 2020 Honda Passport. Brake controllers for this vehicle have to be hardwired in by a local Honda dealer, unless you go with a wireless brake controller. Because of that I highly recommend the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # C51180. I have added a link to a video review as well.

  • Troubleshooting Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness Ground Wire Not Fitting In 7-Way Connector
  • It sounds like you're having trouble fitting the ground wire in the back of the 7-way connector on your T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118291. This is larger than the other wires so you need to make sure you are inserting the wire in the correct spot. See the diagram below. The ground wire fits in the larger hole on the right side marked "B." There is only one orientation for the wires to fit, and once inserted they will lock in place. It should not require a lot of pressure so if you're...

  • Can I Use the Curt Echo on the 2020 Honda Passport with Factory 7 Way without Brake Wire Connected
  • There's nothing to worry about in this case and you can use the Curt Echo with your 2020 Honda Passport. The reason for the confusion is that brake controllers are not fit guided on our site to particular trailers, since they'll work with any trailer including your Satellite Comet Mini. The reason that your 2020 Honda Passport does not have a signal on the brake signal pin is that all wired brake controllers for this vehicle would need to have it wired by the dealer, but you would still...

  • How To Install Tekonsha Trailer Brake Controller On 2021 Honda Passport with Factory Pigtail
  • There isn't a direct plug-in-play brake controller wiring harness for a 2021 Honda Passport but you can use the factory brake controller pigtail to install a controller like the Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller part # TK90160. It sounds like the wire colors of the factory pigtail aren't matching up with the Tekonsha pigtail therefore you'll have to match by function not color. Factory Pigtail - Tekonsha Pigtail Blue to Black Black to White Sky Blue to Red Brown/White to Blue

Anytime you make electrical connections on a vehicle there is a risk a short could be created. So while I could see how installing the part # C56291 wouldn't require the battery being disconnected for most people I have to recommend you stick with the manufacturer recommendation.

  • Any Vehicles Modifications Required to Install Trailer Hitch on 2020 Honda Passport?
  • Neither the Curt # C13421 or the Draw-Tite # 76290 Class III hitches would require any trimming or modification of the vehicle.

Really the only appreciable difference between the two is that the Draw-Tite # 76290 includes a horizontal bracket welded to the hitch crossbar for...
