Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs into OEM tow package wiring harness. Powered converter reduces strain on wiring system. SMT construction ensures superior performance.
Features:
Installation
This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's factory tow package wiring harness, which is located behind the passenger's-side interior trim panel in your rear cargo area.
Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your cargo area.
It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.
A tail light converter is built into this T-connector. This converter is a circuit-protected, battery-powered unit that bypasses the electrical routes that are used by a basic wiring harness. As a result, there is virtually no draw on your tail light circuits.
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.

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs into OEM tow package wiring harness. Powered converter reduces strain on wiring system. SMT construction ensures superior performance.I bought this specifically for my 1997 Grand Cherokee with the tow package. Like alot of people who bought this (as i later found out) it had an extra connector that didnt fit anywhere in my jeep. My jeep had a big 8 pin connector behind the spare tire, but this kit has a small 2 pin connector that had nowhere to go. I emailed customer support and never got a response from them. I ended up buying another one somewhere else that did fit.
the included instructions from the manufacture are wrong. for my 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee the proper vehicle harnesses are located on the driver's side behind the spare,not the passenger side. You will see an access panel there. Open it and both connections are there. You need to switch the yellow and green wires for proper operation. plugs are on the harness
I have called curt mfg. to have them correct their instructions I hope you will correct your web site. otherwise the product works great.
Easy to order, quick receipt of product, and super easy install. The included instructions didn't exactly match my vehicle, but there were several benefits online. It literally involved plugging in 3 plugs and that's it.

Product is still working perfectly a year later. Id recommend this harness to anyone.
I got just what I ordered and it was delivered on time. Everything went smoothly until I went to install the harness in my Jeep. That’s when I realized I ordered the wrong harness. My Jeep has a towing package but it did not come with a factory towing package. I ordered the harness for the factory towing package and it does not fit. It’s my fault. But YES I recommend this seller because they did as promised and the harness was in perfect brand new condition.
I think you guys are great,I ordered the wrong one ,but I talked with Baduon and he helped me with ordering the right one ,real nice person,I was going to do the little survey but my phone went wacko,I am very pleased with the service and how helpful he was,and very courteous
Perfect fit! Thanks
the instructions are not clear. but i did figure it out and got it installed and it works,
thanks for your help
great snap in no problem!

I am installing the Curt Trailer Hitch Wiring Connector Kit 55260 and i dont see where the black plug goes. The one with two spades in it.
It almost the correct Product. My fault, I ordered the factry installed
rather than a new install. Cable leading to the right side was too short.
I'm gonna see if I can modify it to make it about at least 1 1/2 ' longer.
If not I'll just order the correct product.
Thank you.
