First off, this is our wire harness right here that has a side that plugs into the factory port and your four pole flap on the other side.

Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2014 Ford Van- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2014 Ford Van we're gonna be taking a look at and showing you how to install the T-One vehicle wiring harness with a four-pole flat trailer connector, part number 118551.Here's what our wiring looks like when it's fully installed. Now it is gonna live on the outside of the vehicle and it's gonna provide us with a four-pole flat for our trailer giving us all the required lights to get down the road such as our turn signals, brake lights, and clearance lights.As far as the installation goes it's gonna be pretty straight forward. There's gonna be a few connections behind the taillights we're gonna have to make and then we're gonna have to run a line of wire up to the battery. Now that we've seen what it looks like when we're done let's show you how we get it installed.To begin our installation we're gonna need to remove our taillights and we're gonna have four fasteners holding them in place, I'm gonna be using a T15 torques bit to remove those. Once we have all the bolts removed we can grab the taillight and we gently pull it out and just push in on that tab, it should release the connector and we'll do the same thing for the other one. Now with this taillight removed we're gonna go ahead and do that on the other side too.We're gonna go ahead and grab our wiring harness and we're gonna start with a green wire on the passengers side. more
