Recommended 7-Way and Brake Controller for a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L w/out the Tow Package
Question:
What parts do I need to tow a trailer with brakes with a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L? I do not have the tow package. I know I need a 7-way connector and I do not see one on your website.

Expert Reply:
To install a 7-Way harness on your 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L without the towing package you will need two separate wiring harnesses because they don't make just one that'll do the job. That's why you're not seeing one.
The first harness you'll need is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # C27BR. This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your Jeep's wiring harness, which is located behind the tail lights. This will provide you with a 4-flat connector.
The second harness you will need is the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller item # ETBC7. The kit includes a pre-wired 7- and 4-way trailer connector that mounts easily at the rear of your vehicle with an included bracket. This kit is designed for use on a vehicle with an existing 4-way flat trailer connector and plugs directly into it.
Some other parts you will need to tow a trailer with your 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L are listed below:
Trailer Hitch - Curt Hitch item # C96NR
Wiring Harness Mount - No-Drill Mount Bracket item # 18136
Brake Controller - Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller item # RED24FR and Wiring Adapter item # RED69FR
Ball Mount - Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534
