  • Troubleshooting Curt 56420 T-Connector Not Working When Plugged Into 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe Connector
  • First you will want to contact your Hyundai dealer as the factory trailer connector the Curt 56420 T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # CU94FR connects too has a recall on your 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe. If your harness is not part of the recall there is a 30-amp fuse in the engine compartment fuse panel marked Trailer you will want to check.

  • Causes of Uneven Trailer Tire Wear
  • Do you mean that the inside of the tread (the half closest to the trailer) is wearing unevenly? Or are you speaking of the inside sidewall? Many things can cause uneven tire wear, including a bent axle, an overloaded trailer and worn or broken suspension components. A trailer axle should be slightly arched, with the high spot in the center of the trailer and the spindles on either end being slightly lower. When the trailer is loaded the arch will flatten, placing the trailer tire treads...

  • Why Won't The OneControl Remote Sync To My Ground Control 3.0 Leveling System
  • Lippert originally had packaged the remote with the certain Lippert Ground Control 3.0 Systems, like the # LC675817 or # LC358590, because it would connect to the control modules that came with an antenna (pictured below). For whatever reason the remotes also got put in with models that do not have the antenna which renders the remote useless for the leveling system. If you do not have the antenna on your control module then you won't be able to sync the OneControl remote included with...

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Wiring Harness on a 2009 Hyundai Veracruz that Right Turn/Stop Stays On
  • It sounds like you had a short on your trailer's wiring that took out the trailer wiring harness you have installed on your 2009 Hyundai Veracruz and now that is why the right side taillight circuit has constant voltage. This happens all the time unfortunately but the good news is the harness did it's job and shorted out instead of allowing the short to make it's way into your vehicle's taillight circuits and potentially damaging your vehicle wiring. You will want to first find the short...

  • Setting Up Australian-Market 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe to Tow Trailer With Electric Brakes
  • In the US market, Hyundai does not pre-wire the Santa Fe for electric trailer brakes. From my research online, I found that an Australian 7-way flat trailer connector does use the blue wire in the # 5 position to carry trailer brake output voltage. To actuate your brakes, you would need to install a brake controller. Your vehicle might be pre-wired, you would need to check with a local Hyundai dealer about that, there might be an adapter harness available that would make installation...

  • Center Exhaust on 2013 Hyundai Veloster Can Melt Plastic Trailer Hitch Accessories
  • The center exhaust on the 2013 Hyundai Veloster is fairly high up in relationship to where a hitch receiver would be. That is going to be a problem for any hitch mounted accessory. Interestingly enough the bike rack probably ended up protecting the bikes. The only option for this is to have an exhaust down turn, see link, to direct the exhaust downward instead of straight out. The only problem with this is finding one that fits the exhaust on a Veloster. A metal handle is not available...

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Lights Staying On After 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe is Turned Off
  • The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56332 receives the signals for lighting from the vehicle and sends power to the lights from the battery via the converter. Your 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe does have a welcome/surround light feature that will continue to keep some of your lights on when you either unlock your vehicle or switch off your vehicle. Typically this will have a time delay and will turn your lights off after that time has elapsed. If your trailer lights are on when the...

  • Troubleshooting Curt Echo That Is Not Paired With Solid Blue Light
  • I reached out to Curt and they said the only reason this might happen with the # C51180 is if it was previously paired and you're also using the old Echo Smart Controller App. This app will no longer work with the Echo so you will need to update and get the OneControl Auto App instead. Once you have this app you will be able to see the Echo and pair it properly.

  • Testing a Malfunctioning Wiring Harness on a 2021 Hyundai Tucson
  • This can be caused by a few things. First and foremost, you will need to check to make sure your ground is secure and attached to bare metal. It is best to not have this stacked with other wires and should be its own ground source. Once this is done, you will need to check your 4 Flat connection using a tester, like the Circuit Tester # PTW2993. The green wire is for the right turn signal, the yellow is for the left turn signal, and the brown wire is the brake signal, the one you are having...

  • Trailer Brakes Do Not Lock Up When Brake Controller Is At Max Settings on 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe
  • If the brake controller seems to be operating correctly, then it is possible that the brakes on your trailer need to be adjusted. If you have manual adjust brakes, then you will need to rotate an adjustment dial inside of the brake assemblies at the bottom just under the magnet. The brake shoes could not be close enough to the drum. To ensure the brakes are properly adjusted, you will want to turn the adjustment dial until you cannot rotate the hub and then back off about 10 clicks. I...

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Connector on 2016 Hyundai Tucson Not Sending Power
  • It sounds like there is a problem with the OEM wiring on your 2016 Hyundai Tucson. You can try following the wiring that is giving you issues to see if there is damage and check your fuses. If you have a lot of lights on your trailer you may be overloading the circuit which is causing a fuse to blow. If the fuses and wiring looks good then I recommend installing the Tekonsha T-One # 118501 so that you bypass the OEM wiring. This plugs in behind your tail lights and then draws power directly...

  • Troubleshooting Curt C56332 Wiring Harness Installed on 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe
  • First, you'll want to make sure the included 10 amp fuse has been inserted into the red fuse holder on the wiring harness. The harness won't operate without that fuse installed. Be sure that both the connectors were firmly pushed together until they clicked, or the connection might not have been made. If all this checks out, you could be missing a fuse or relay that would activate the tow package. There is a 30 amp fuse in the main fuse box in the engine compartment for the trailering...

  • Trailer Lights Dont Work After 4-Way Install
  • Thank you for your purchase from etrailer of the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118758, and I have a number of suggestions. The first thing to do is take a look at your owner's manual to locate any fuses or relays and ensure they are all there and in working order. If they are, in order to determine the specific problem you will need to purchase a circuit tester if you do not have one - the very handy Cordless Circuit Tester # PTW2979 - and test the connector...

  • Troubleshooting a Curt 4-Way Harness with No Output Voltage
  • What you will want to do is test the wires going into the box of the Curt Wiring Harness part # C56496 for voltage with a circuit tester like the # PTW2993 to see if there is voltage going into the box when the taillight functions of your vehicle are applied, and then test the output side of the box to see if the current is making it through the converter. If not then the problem is that the converter box has shorted itself out and would need to be replaced. Before you replace it you will...

  • How to Select a Ball Mount for a 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe and Other Items for Towing a Travel Trailer
  • To determine the correct ball mount to use for your Hyundai Santa Fe with a Class III 2 inch receiver hitch and the Jay Feather Ex Port 17c travel trailer you will need to measure from the ground to the top of the receiver hitch opening on the Santa Fe and from the ground to the bottom of the trailer coupler on the travel trailer, with the trailer parked on a fairly level surface and the trailer frame level. Once you have those measurements, you can subtract the height of the Santa Fe...

  • Turn Signals are Not Working with the Tekonsha T-One # 118415 Installed on Tow Vehicle
  • If you are just testing it by hooking up your trailer and watching the lights, then what I recommend doing is using a Circuit Tester # PTW2992 to test the 4-Way flat connector on the Tekonsha T-One # 118415. This will help you to determine if the problem is on your trailer side or vehicle side. If the functions all work correctly when you are testing just the connector, then the problem is on your trailer. If not, then you maybe need a new # 118415 since it connects in-line with your taillights. To...

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Wiring Harness on 2008 Hyundai Entourage
  • The first thing I'd recommend you do is troubleshoot the wiring harness, I've linked you to an FAQ article that explains how to do this. If you confirm that the trailer wiring harness is faulty, you'd want to remove it before installing the # 118410. It's theoretically possible to simply cut the wires and remove the old converter and splice in the new one. However, the short that damaged the converter box might have been caused by a damaged portion of the remaining trailer wiring, which...

  • Troubleshooting Intermittent Turn Signals On 2005 Hyundai Tucson
  • It is possible that a controller like the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C55528 has gone bad. To test it, I recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to see the function at your 4-way when the trailer is not connected. This will help you determine if it is vehicle wiring or trailer wiring causing the issue. If the issue is with the vehicle side, you will need to replace the unit. If the 4-way is good on your vehicle test, then I...
