Installation
This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side interior trim panel in your rear cargo area.
Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed within the spare tire compartment of your cargo area.
It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plug on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.
Tail Light Converter with Surface-Mount Technology
A tail light converter is built into this T-connector. Because most trailers run on a two-wire system - wherein the brake and turn signals are carried on one wire - the separate brake and turn signals from your vehicle's three-wire system need to be combined so they are compatible with the wiring system of the trailer. This converter combines the brake and turn signal functions of your automobile so that they run on one wire to properly activate your trailer's tail lights. Note: This will not affect how the tail lights on your vehicle operate.
Curt builds each tail light converter using surface-mount technology (SMT). This method of construction involves soldering electronic components directly to the surface of a printed circuit board. SMT eliminates the need for leads, which are used in older through-hole technology. The result is a circuit board that is smaller yet provides more routing area and that offers superior performance, reliability and durability.
Circuit boards constructed using SMT have been shown to perform better under rough conditions with excessive vibration than those made using the through-hole method. And where would vibration be more likely to occur than in towing applications? Curt converters also produce less heat, leading to increased durability and longer life. In addition, lower levels of resistance ensure better performance, especially for parts that operate at higher frequencies.
Each Curt circuit board is made using high-quality components that are pieced together in the most technologically savvy fashion, leading to greater predictability and reliability in functioning.

Works great. Easy installation.

A year later this is still working. It was simple to install for anyone who considers themselves "handy." Installing this is the sort of project I would give someone to do under supervision for training.

I’ve purchased a Hitch and wiring from etrailer.com for both of my cars and installed them myself. One being a Honda CR-V and the other a Mazda CX-9. If you are mechanically inclined it’s a breeze. etrailer.com also has video’s on their site for help of ease for installation. Also purchased the wiring kit for my Honda and installed that.
I’m in the process of ordering the wiring kit for my Mazda CX-9
Very good company for all your trailering needs.
Prices are competitive

It plugged directly into my 2010 Honda CRV 8 pin vehicle connector. I decided to route the wires under the bumper cover like the Honda factory trailer harness for a cleaner install. I followed the Honda Trailer Hitch Kit P/N 08L92-SWA-101 installation instructions for removing the bumper cover and routing the wires. The only problem was I had to cut the wires about 6 " past the controller so I could pull the wires through the vehicle panel hole (the 4 pin trailer connector wouldn't fit through the hole). I just spliced them back together in the left rear cargo area opening (see pictures).

Never received it. I was told by etrailer, that I have to wait 14 days for the USPS investigation to be over with. Then they will make a decision. I asked them for the tracking number and they (etrailer) never supplied it to me. So, I don't have the cable and I'm out $[XX] I can't tow anything because I'm missing that cable

Easy install. Have a trim removal tool handy.
by: Jeff04/06/2023
Because the attachment points were so rusted out, and my exhaust pipe also, I had the hitch installed by a friend of mine who is a mechanic. It went well, and the wiring was easy as could be. Very, very happy!

2010 Honda CR-V
I like the price (about 1/2 of Honda) of this hitch compared to other products. We have a very light kayak trailer to pull so the hitch construction does not appear to be vigorous enough for it's 1,000lb plus rating! It is clearly sufficient for pulling our fully loaded Kayak Trailer (with 3 kayaks and 2 bicycles) but total max weight is less than 350lbs.
I do NOT like the electrical connection dangling out from under our rear door!! This is ugly, prone to leaks into the cabin, causes door seal deterioration and very unprofessional install - looking. I used a 3/4 inch drill to put a hole in the bottom of our spare tire holder to route the electrical wiring and connector. The area is a thin steel structure and easily penetrated. To seal it, I put Duct Tape on the inside and outside then coated both sides with the black-tarry undercoat available at AutoZone. My mods, notwithstanding the original installation, cost about $15 plus my time.
This installation is in our 2010 Honda CRV and we have driven to FL and back (1,300 miles) with our trailer. It pulls very nicely ...but as may be expected, the CRV's gas mileage suffered. Also, on long or steep hills, the engine worked quite hard to overcome the additional drag (from the high profile) of the trailer and cargo. Although I extended the tongue by 4 feet (to clear the kayak) there is no tendency of trailer sway or bounce excessively and no hitch shifting or looseness.

2007 Honda CR-V
I installed this along with hitch # 24792 on my 2007 CR-V. The installation video was very helpful. The wiring works well. It's really nice to install a wiring harness that plugs right into the vehicle's connector without having to splice wires, etc. I would definitely buy this wiring harness (and the hitch) again. I use the wiring harness and hitch to pull a boat trailer with a 14 foot aluminum boat to go fishing.

After one year the wiring harness and the hitch work just fine. I would definitely buy this wiring harness and the hitch again.

Selecting the proper hitch for my car was very easy. The ordering process was straight forward. The order tracking kept me informed during the entire shipment. Before the product arrived I watched installation videos on YouTube. These made the installation trouble free. Once the products arrived it took me 1 hour to install the trailer hitch, and 45 minutes to install the wiring harness. Everyting is working just as I had hoped.

2011 Honda CR-V
Pulling the plastic sidewalls out in my new CRV had me a bit worried after watching the youtube vidio. The package included step by step directions including pictures. The instructional pictures were actually pictures of a CRV not a generic one size fits all vehicle. This wiring harness plugged in to an existing connection that Honda had pre wired and it looked exactly like the pictures. 15 minutes tops. It was so easy I had to double check to make sure I didn't miss anything. First time I've ever plugged in a harness, otherwise I was usually under the vehicle and cutting into wires and taping them.

I purchased the draw-tite hitch and the wire harness for my 2007 Honda CR-v. The items were shipped at no cost and what I ordered is what I received. The order was delivered on time and complete...absolutely no issues! I have ordered previously from etrailer and I have never been disappointed. etrailer prices beat another site and an auction site and included easy to follow instructions, this was a very easy installation which took less than an hour to install. I will continue to use etrailer as my choice for equipment and parts in the future. THANK YOU!!

I finally installed the 'T-connector wiring kit' in my '09 CR-V. It went well, installed in about an hour following the clear instructions. Have not been able to test the install yet because I don't have a trailer, but I don't expect any problems - will contact you if I have. However, I still don't understand the 'T-connector ' description, there is no 'T' involved just a straight connector into the CR-V's wiring system.....Terry L!

The products worked well and stood the test of time. I sold the vehicle recently and the items went with the car as they were not interchangeable with my new vehicle. I like doing business with E- trailer and frequently recommend friends looking for accessories.

See what our Experts say about this CURT Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring
- Best Hitch for a 2011 Honda CR-V I pulled the manual for your 2011 Honda CRV. It says your vehicle tops out at 1,500 lbs for towing capacity so paying extra for a 4,500 lbs capacity hitch like item # 75547 doesn't make sense. Adding this high of a capacity hitch won't give you anymore than the 1,500 lbs your CRV is rated for. The best hitch for both value and ability is going to be the etrailer Hitch item # e39AR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your 2011 Honda CR-V with included hardware. This is our house brand...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Install 7-Way Connector and Brake Controller on a 2007 Honda CR-VFor the most part the products mentioned in the answer page that you referenced for the 2014 Honda CR-V can be used for your 2007 Honda CR-V. The only difference is that the Curt 4-Way Flat Connector # C56158 will not fit your 2007 CR-V. Instead you need the Curt T-Connector # C55106. Once you have installed this 4-Way on your CR-V you can then install the Universal Wiring Kit # ETBC7 and a brake controller like the Prodigy P2 # 90885 that was recommended. If you like the features of...

With your motorcycle carrier and motorcycle you would definitely be overloading your vehicle but I have another solution. To safely transport your motorcycle with your CR-V I recommend installing the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13555. You will also need a trailer wiring harness such as Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C55106. Next you will need to find either...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Add 7-Way and Brake Controller to 2011 Honda CR-VOk, we can help you out here, and to add a brake controller as well as apply a maintenance charge to your batteries, you are correct that you will need to add a 7-way to your 2011 Honda CR-V. First, for the brake controller, the part number you mentioned is the same (just re-branded) as the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller # 90885, and along with that you will need the Brake Control Harness # 20127. Then you will need to add a 4-way in order to utilize the lighting functions,...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Curt C55106 Trailer Wiring Harness without Functioning Right Blinker and HazardIf the right blinker and hazard works normally on the vehicle, then it's unlikely that it's a fuse that's blown. I would start by using a circuit tester like the # PTW2993 and checking for power on the port of the 4 way plug on your Curt # C55106 where the green wire is connected; if you're getting power on that circuit with the blinker activated, the issue is going to be on the trailer. If you're not getting power on the harness when the blinker is activated then there will be an issue...

But if you are getting voltage just on the brown, yellow, and green wires around 12 volts then it is working properly. I have included a link to an FAQ article that will help you troubleshoot the vehicle side trailer wiring harness. On a 4-Way, the white wire is the ground, brown is running lights, yellow is left turn and brake light, and green...
view full answer... - Tow Ready and Curt Wiring Harness Comparison for a 2011 Honda CR-VThe Tow Ready T-One Wiring Harness, # 118427, and the Curt T-Connector Wiring Harness, # C55106, are basically the same harness from two different manufacturers. The main difference between these two harnesses is that Curt uses surface-mount technology (SMT) which is newer technology from the older through-hole technology. The Curt harness also has higher amp ratings of 3 amps per circuit for the stop and turn lights and 7.5 amps per circuit for the tail lights. The Tow Ready harness...
view full answer... - Can Flat Tow Wiring Harness for 2011 Honda CR-V be Connected to Trailer Wiring HarnessThat is an excellent question. The difference between a trailer wiring harness like the Curt # C55106 and a flat tow wiring harness like the Hopkins # HM56300 (similar to the Curt you mentioned) for your 2011 Honda CR-V is that the trailer wiring harness sends power to trailer lights while the flat tow harness receives power from your motorhome. So even though they connect to the same circuits, they serve different purposes so they aren't interchangeable. For a complete flat towing setup...

view full answer... - Is It Safe to Route 4-Pole Trailer Wiring Harness Through Rear Hatch on 2010 Honda CR-V Some hitches do provide a small bracket for mounting a wiring harness such as a 4-pole flat connector like that on # C55106. However, mounting any trailer connector outside the vehicle does tend to expose it to the elements and potential damage. Water, salt and road debris do tend to speed up wear and tear and the potential for corrosion that can lead to electrical connectivity problems. When our tech installed this harness in a 2010 CR-V, please see the linked video, he did not route...

I have provided a link to the installation instructions for this particular harness. The wiring harness will not require any drilling as the connector is installed in the inner trim area of your vehicles rear cargo area, however you will need to shoot in a self-tapping screw during the installation. Once you have completed the installation, you will want to test the connection with a test light or a...

And the correct fit for a trailer hitch receiver on your 2010 Honda CR-V is the Trailer Hitch Receiver # e39AR. Then if you were planning on doing some towing and needed a 4-way wiring harness the right fit for your '10 CR-V is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C55106.
