We installed a Tekonsha brake controller in a 2018 Nissan Pathfinder and made a video on it. I linked it for you. Even though you're installing a Hayes controller with the # HA81786-HBC adapter the vehicle-side connector is the same.
Skip ahead to about the 6:30 mark in the video and you'll see where the connector is located. view full answer...
The brake controller adapter plug can be found by checking near the parking brake pedal for a main harness; you'll follow that main harness up and look for an offshoot (sub harness) of the main harness, doubled up and taped to the main harness about half way up behind the dash. You may want to remove the fuse box cap to get a glimpse at it. The cap is white with no wires coming out of the top and held by fabric black tape.
There is a cap that has to be removed, which you'll just press... view full answer...
The # 118266 is designed for a 2008 Nissan Pathfinder without a factory trailer connector. The plug for the jumper will be in the location you described, behind the kick panel on the passenger's side. However, since you already have a factory trailer connector there will already be a jumper in place which means you aren't going to see an open plug. This is probably the reason why you aren't finding it.
This would also mean you have the relays in place. Assuming that is the case, you can... view full answer...
Although we have not yet had the opportunity to install the # C56225 trailer wiring harness on a 2012 Pathfinder, my contact at Curt tells me that the only difference in the installation between the Pathfinder, Xterra and Frontier is the location of the connector at the rear of the vehicle that the 4-pole connector would plug into.
The procedure for installing the remainder of the harness and the relays behind the kick panel in the passenger side front seat foot well is exactly the same... view full answer...
The location of the trailer relays on a 2005 Nissan Pathfinder will vary based on if you have a factory tow package or not. If you have the factory tow package then you should have relays or at least a spot for them in the engine bay fuse box. If you don't have the factory tow package then odds are there are no relays nor a place for them to be inserted inside the engine bay fuse box therefore you need a relay harness (T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 7-Way Trailer Connector part # 118266)... view full answer...
I have a video that I attached to the right that shows a very similar brake controller as the P3 part # 90195 being installed in a very similar Nissan Pathfinder as your 2014 model using the same install harness part # 3050-P. view full answer...
I spoke with my contact at Draw-Tite about your 2013 Nissan Pathfinder. They said there have been no reported issues with removing the tie-downs they are aware of.
Per the instructions all that is mentioned is that the tie-downs need to be removed from the vehicle. I have attached a link to an installation video you can check out that shows how they remove the tie-down on a Pathfinder. In the video they use an air tool that seems to work quite well.
From the video it looks as though... view full answer...
We definitely have had people install an aftermarket transmission cooler on their Nissan Pathfinder before so it is possible, but I would be surprised if that was something that Nissan would be okay with under their warranty. It is our understanding that the transmission cooler is actually inside the radiator.
If you were to go this route then you will need to find the largest aftermarket cooler you can find. For this application I recommend the Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler... view full answer...
The blue wire coming from the 7 way at the rear would connect to the blue output wire coming from the brake controller. Typically this wire would run from the port under the dash to a location somewhere near the rear of the vehicle. Check the driver's side frame rail or behind the bumper for a blue wire that is not connected to anything. The black wire is for your 12V lead, and would run to a 12V power source via a 40 amp inline circuit breaker like part # 9510. The orange lead is either... view full answer...
There is not a better photo than the one I added here from the installation video (linked below) on a Nissan Pathfinder for the ground wire location of the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56281.
This is on the passenger side of a Pathfinder, right behind the rear bumper, where the # C56281 plugs in. view full answer...
Since there isn't a custom fit wiring harness to easily plug the Curt Venturer Trailer Brake Controller # C74VV into your 2022 Nissan Pathfinder you can cut the connector off and just hardwire it into your vehicle in the following method:
Black - 12v power with an in-line fuse ( # PK54230)
Blue - Brake controller wire for your 7-way (typically blue wire)
White - Ground
Red - Brake light switch wire

You may have found the wrong connector on your 2013 Nissan Pathfinder to install the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3050-P. The harness is located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal.
I attached an install video and installation instructions for this product for you to check out. This may help you determine if you have found the correct harness or not. If the # 3050-P you received does not look like the picture... view full answer...
To install a Curt Brake Controller, like the Discovery # C84VV, on your 2017 Nissan Pathfinder you will simply need to plug the Custom Wiring Adapter # C51382 under your dash like you mentioned.
I am attaching a video where one of our install guys installed a Tekonsha Prodigy P2 # 90885 in a 2013 Pathfinder using the Tekonsha Wiring Adapter # 3050-P. If you skip to the 2:45 mark you can see where he plugs in the adapter for the Prodigy P2. Your Curt adapter will plug into the same place. view full answer...
The actuator of the Detail K2 Rampage II Elite Snowplow - Custom Mount - Electric Actuator # K2RAMP8219ELT is powered directly from the 12 volt battery of your 2018 Nissan Pathfinder. You can find the diagram on page 14 of the instructions linked below.
To mount the # K2RAMP8219ELT to your '18 Pathfinder you will also need the Custom Mounting Brackets # K286621. view full answer...
The AutoAttach pin on the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 is essentially just a guide for ensuring that the shank of the rack is far enough into the hitch receiver that the rack is secured.
Once the AutoAttach system is lined up with the hitch pin hole and it snaps in place then you use the anti-rattle knob to expand the shank to take all of the wobble out of the rack. The anti-rattle knob can then be locked which prevents the bike rack from being removed even if that AutoAttach... view full answer...
The connector to install an electric brake controller, like the Primus IQ # TK90160 you purchased, that is under the dash of your 2015 Nissan Pathfinder is pretty hard to find. In addition to that it's also capped and covered in tape.
Take a look at the video I've linked. The install isn't on the same controller but it's on a 2013 Pathfinder that uses the same # 3050-P connector. Skip ahead to about the 2:55 mark and our installer starts showing the location under the dash. view full answer...
We have not had a chance to install the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs # F4118 you were looking at in a 2020 Nissan Pathfinder so there is not a video of the install available.
I did however include a link to the written instructions that go over how to get the kit installed. Basically you will need to feed the springs into the coil springs on your Pathfinder with the valve pointing down, and then run the air lines to the rear of your vehicle and install the two valves to fill... view full answer...
The correct Coil SumoSprings that fits your 2018 Nissan Pathfinder is the part # CSS-1195R. The other part number is basically just slightly different dimensions so it won't fit your vehicle well at all. view full answer...
Since you likely won't have enough clearance for a winch that uses a standard rotating handle, a winch with a ratcheting handle like the # DL16003 would be your best bet. I'd recommend using a couple of U-bolts to attach the winch to the crossbar. Also keep in mind that your roof rack crossbars are meant to withstand a weight equal to their weight capacity bearing down on them. A set-up like you propose will put lateral force on the crossbar and roof rack. I'd proceed cautiously, and carefully... view full answer...
All 2020 Nissan Pathfinders come from the factory prewired for a brake controller and a 7-way trailer connector, though it might lack the 7-way and the relays needed to activate the tow package. You will need a brake controller.
If your vehicle doesn't already have a 7-way, you can easily install one using part # 118273. You will also need a # PK12711U bracket and a # 18136 no-drill mount if your hitch doesn't already have a trailer connector mounting tab on it.
For a brake controller,... view full answer...
