Expert Answers about Toyota Sienna


  • What Wire Should The Red Wire From Redarc Brake Controller Connect on 2022 Toyota Sienna?
  • When we installed the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR on a 2022 Toyota Sienna in our shop we determined the blue wire coming out of the brake switch to be the correct wire to connect to the red wire for the Wiring Harness # RED69FR. I have included this install video below which you can see at the 15:05 time mark in the video. I do recommend using a Test Light # PTW2993 to verify this is the correct wire on your Sienna as well.

  • How to Route Converter Power Wire When Installing Taillight Converter on 2014 Toyota Sienna
  • I don't have an article that specifically addresses that particular vehicle, but the article I'll link you to offers some general strategies and techniques that will make the installation easier for you. There's no 'one correct way' to route the wiring, but the important thing to remember is to stay away from anything that's hot like exhaust components or anything moving like the steering and suspension systems. I've also linked you to installation videos for both the Tow Ready # 118498...

  • Will Installing The Curt Hitch C22UR Effect The Liftgate Sensor On My 2023 Toyota Sienna
  • The liftgate sensor on your 2023 Toyota Sienna will not be disabled after installing the Curt hitch # C22UR. The sensor will still work, but the receiver does partially block the sensor. So it will still work but it may function a little differently. You will likely need to wave your foot on either side of the receiver, rather than right in the middle to get it to activate. It may take a little bit of getting used to at first, but functionality will not be lost.

  • Trimming the Appearance Panel when Installing Curt # C13105 on a 2017 Toyota Sienna
  • I added a picture of the drawing from the instructions. If you click on it it will enlarge the picture so that you can better see where the measurements need to be taken. An installation video of the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13105 being installed on a 2015 Toyota Sienna has also been linked for you to check out. This process will be identical to your installation. If you jump to the 7:15 mark you can see our installation team member cut the fascia and then install the trailer hitch. The fascia...

  • Will Installing a Trailer Hitch Receiver Void the Warranty on a 2017 Toyota Sienna
  • According to the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act, unless a modification that you added to your vehicle actually causes the problem, your dealer must honor the warranty. We do have some trailer hitch receiver options that are confirmed to fit your 2017 Toyota Sienna. I recommend going with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame # 75237 since it is a Class III hitch with a 2 inch receiver opening which is compatible with more accessories. This hitch has a Gross Towing Weight (GTW) of 4,500 lbs (5,000 with...

  • Are Sidewalls Available for the Yakima SlimShady Awning
  • I do have a solution for you but unfortunately the Yakima SlimShady Awning # Y36VR does not have any side panels that you can add. We do have the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning # RR32132 though which is a little bit larger and is comparable to the SlimShady. Rhino-Rack offers the side panel # RR32112 which you can add one to either side and the front panel # RR32111. You can use these to extend the footprint of the awning or as a windbreaker/privacy section. I have attached a review video...

  • Connecting 2012 Toyota Sienna 7-Way Backup Light Wires
  • You will need to use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 to test all of the wires going to the reverse lights. Which ever one has voltage only when the reverse lights are on is the one you are looking for. Once determined, you can use these Deka Heat Shrink Butt Connector # DW05745-5 to complete the job. Included are video resources for additional information from here.

  • Does 2015 Toyota Sienna XLE Already Have Power Wire for Converter
  • If there is indeed a power wire already ran, it would terminate in the cargo area of the van, most likely in the spare tire or jack storage compartment. The other end would terminate in the engine compartment near the battery or the fuse box. Both ends of the wire would likely have a label or tag on them for identification. I checked with my trailer wiring brain trust at Curt and Tow Ready, and they haven't heard of this option. Both the Curt # C56261 and the Tow Ready # 118648 include...

  • Should Brake Controller Ground Wire Run to Negative Battery Post of 2015 Toyota Sienna
  • If you can run the ground wire of the Tekonsha Voyager part # 39510 to the negative post of your battery that will give you the best ground and would be what I would recommend. You'll have to use the install kit part # ETBC7 with your factory 4-way to install this which I attached an install video for.

  • What Size Bolts are Used for the Curt 2" Trailer Hitch on a 2007 Toyota Sienna
  • The weld nuts on your 2007 Toyota Sienna XLE won't actually stop the M12 - 1.25 x 40 HEX bolts that come with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13105 you referenced. The bolts should be driven up until they make contact with the included washer and trailer hitch. These need to be torqued to the specs found in the linked installation instructions. I am not sure how deep the OEM weld nuts are on your Sienna. If you are looking to acquire new hardware you can get M12 - 1.25 x 40 HEX bolts...

  • 4-Way Trailer Connector Mounting Bracket Recommendation for a 200 Toyota Sienna
  • The 4 pole trailer connector will be able to be mounted under the Toyota Sienna by the hitch. From the way the instructions seem to explain it, the 4-Way will be on the outside underneath the vehicle and not hanging through the rear cargo doors. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view. For a bracket, you can use a combination of # 18144 and # 18140. If you determine that the 4-Way would have to be pulled through the rear hatch, you can follow these alternative...

  • Adapting 4-Pole Flat on Toyota Sienna to 5-Pole Flat Using Part # 20036
  • To provide the converter you already have with a 5-pole connector, you have two choices. You can use and adapter, like part # 20036. The blue wire on the adapter would tap into the circuit that feeds the reverse lights on your Sienna. A more permanent solution is available. You can cut off the 4-pole connector on the vehicle, and wire in a 5-way flat vehicle end, part # HM37908. The brown, white, yellow and green wires would match those used by your existing connector. As with the adapter...

  • What Rear Fascia Trimming Is Required to Install a Hitch on a 2013 Toyota Sienna
  • The part # 51080 is a Cequent part number for a Class III hitch confirmed to fit your 2013 Toyota Sienna. While we don't carry that part number we do carry the Draw-Tite part # 75237 which is basically the same thing and would work well on your 2013 Toyota Sienna. If you check out the picture I attached you will see exactly where the panel needs to be trimmed. I also attached an install video for more info as well.

  • Cleaning Out Weld Nuts to Install a Trailer Hitch on a 2006 Toyota Sienna
  • In all likelihood you will not have to tap the holes on your 2006 Toyota Sienna to get the hitch bolts to fit. Usually the issue is that the weld nuts on the vehicle will get packed with grime and corrosion and all you will have to do is clean them out. You will need some spray lubricant such as WD40 and a wire brush or battery terminal brush such as # 814092 or # DW00254. Spray the weld nuts with the WD40 and let them soak for about 15 minutes. Then go at the holes with the wire brush...

  • Where To Route Air Line on 2021 Toyota Sienna with Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs
  • I checked with Firestone and confirmed the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F4155 for a 2021 Toyota Sienna (FWD). It looks like we have installed a few of these kits on some older models, in these the air line went through the top of the spring mount. I don't show any obstructions in the way but if you do have any then you make need to make an opening, you shouldn't have to drill through metal or anything though.

  • Recommended Hitch and Wiring for 2021 Toyota Sienna and Where to Get Them Installed
  • I'll start out by mentioning that in most cases, if you've got an extra set of hands and some basic tools, you can install a hitch like the Curt # C22UR and the Tekonsha # TK69FR wiring harness on your own in an hour or two. If you don't feel comfortable completing the task or don't want the hassle, the best place to find someone to install these parts is via a local RV service center since they will have experience in putting these types of parts on a number of different vehicles. We don't...

  • We recommend going to a local shop that has a good reputation for trailer hitch installations. If you are in the St. Louis area we do have an install team at etrailer.com that can help you out if you would like.
