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 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.
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.

Fast easy connection and install. Saved my hundreds and over a year later still works perfect with no problems.
Thanks again George.

2003 Pontiac Montana
The trailer hitch installed in about 20 minutes and has functioned well towing small trailers. The wiring took a little longer to interpret the instructions, but once we got started, the install was very simple. I did not rate the product 5 stars because I have not put a significant load on the hitch to know how good it might be.

Oldsmobile Silhouette
Works great. Was difficult to find the vehicle in-line connector. It was hidden behind wiring and tubing for rear blower assembly. Once located, and pulled out to get to it, install was a cinch. But I did have to remove LR taillight assembly to get enough wire release to pull factory connector plug assembly out of it's hiding place. Obviously, it did not go back where it came from.
This van is the Premier version of the Olds Silhouette.

2001 Chevrolet Venture
Wow!. Fast service. I ordered this item on a Monday, maybe around noon. By the next day around 3:00PM it was at my doorstep via UPS Ground.
This item works exactly as it should and was a breeze to install. Just like the video on the etrailer website demonstrated, you just basically plug it in to an existing plug on the vehicle, (a 2001 Chevrolet Venture), and connect the white ground wire to the body of the vehicle. Thanks etrailer!

Ordered this for my brothers 2004 Chevy Venture. Installation was simple: Plug and Play! It's been a year and it still works perfectly. Can't say enough about this company. Super fast shipping, and excellent tech support if you need it.

See what our Experts say about this CURT Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring
- Trailer Hitch Fit for 2005 Chevy Venture or Boeing 737Oddly enough, we don't offer a hitch for a Boeing 737, but the Draw-Tite # 75278 you'd looked at will fit a 2005 Chevy Venture. If you'll be using the hitch for towing, you'll also need a # C55355 trailer wiring harness, a # D-28 ball mount with a # PC3 hitch pin and # 40038 for a 1-7/8 inch or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball.
view full answer... - Setting Up a 2004 Chevrolet Venture to Tow a 2,500 Pound Camper with Trailer BrakesSuspension supplements like the Timbren kits we carry may or may not be needed. At 2,500 pounds dry you should be within the tow capacity of the Venture. If your total trailer weight is close to the limit of the van, then I would suggest a suspension supplement. Since you will be towing a camper that will have pretty much the same load each time, I would suggest the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System as it will not need to be adjusted for varying loads. You would use part # TGMRREN if...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch, Wiring, and Accessory Recommendations for a 2003 Pontiac MontanaThe Curt trailer hitch # 13344, is a fit for a 2003 Pontiac Montana. The hitch fits all models of the 2003 Montanas. In terms of the different hitches available, see link, they will all look similar once installed. The receiver will be visible but most of the crosstube will be hidden behind the rear fascia. There are both 2 inch and 1-1/4 inch hitches available for this vehicle. The Curt hitch is a Class III with a 2 inch receiver. The 2 inch hitches are more versatile than the 1-1/4...
view full answer... - Can 4-Way Trailer Connector Be Routed through 2001 Oldsmobile Silhouette Cargo Area Outside the VanWhen installing the Curt wiring harness, # C55355, on a 2001 Oldsmobile Silhouette, the 4-Way is meant to be stowed inside the rear cargo area and pulled out when in use. The hatch door can be closed on the wiring and the weather stripping will protect it. Take a look at the video I have linked as an example. If you wanted to route it through the bottom of the van interior and to the bottom, you may be able to find a grommet at the very bottom of the cargo area through which you can route...
view full answer... - 4 Pole Trailer Connector on a 2004 Chevy VentureI'm sorry you found the instructions with your wiring harness lacking. The 4-pole trailer connector is meant to be stowed in the rear cargo area when not in use. When you need to tow, run the 4 way out the door, and close the hatch on it. The weatherstripping provides enough cushion to prevent damage to the wires. Just be sure to keep the wire away from the latch, which WILL damage the wire. This arrangement protects the trailer connector from moisture, corrosion and damage. I use this...
view full answer... - Where Does the C55355 Install On a 2003 Chevy VentureThis T-connector will plug into your vehicles wiring harness that is located in the rear cargo area of your van on the drivers-side. I have included a photo showing the location in the rear cargo area of a vehicle similar to yours. I would recommend using some dielectric grease # 11755 when you are installing this wiring harness, this can be used on all electrical connection points and it helps to prevent corrosion. After you have completed the installation of the wiring harness, the...

- Availability of a Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2000 Oldsmobile SilhouetteWe have several hitches that will fit your 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette, but the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, item # 36423, is not a match for your vehicle. I would recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver Class III, item # 75278, for your Silhouette. The 2 inch Class III receiver will give you more options for towing and accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers. Items needed to complete a Class III towing setup are listed below.

view full answer... - 2000 Pontiac Montana With Insufficient Voltage for Turn Signal/Brake Lights at Trailer ConnectorIt sounds like you have the ground taken care of. Are you using a tail light converter? Part # C55355 is the converter offered for your vehicle. The factory does provide the port for the towing wiring, but a converter is still needed. If you have a converter installed already, I would recommend testing the wires on the input side of the converter. You should have 12-volts entering and exiting the converter while each function is activated.
view full answer... - Trailer Wiring Harness Recommendation for a 2004 Pontiac MontanaActually, all you will need to do is install a wiring harness, # C55355, on your 2004 Pontiac Montana. But if you wanted to use those factory wires, because you have separate wires for turn signals and brake lights, you would first need to install a converter. The converter, # RM-732, takes the separate signals and combines them which is what a trailer uses. To wire it up your yellow wire will go to the yellow wire on the converter, green will go to green, white will go to white, and red...
view full answer... - Trailer Running Lights Not Working and Other Lights are Dim on Trailer Towed by 2001 Pontiac MontanaSince the trailer lights work fine on a different vehicle, I would start looking at the trailer connector on the 2001 Pontiac Montana. If there is any corrosion build up inside the connector, then that can cause a poor connection and cause the issue you are describing. If the vehicle side connector is cleaned out, you can go on to testing the converter itself. Start by testing the wiring going into the converter from the vehicle using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 if needed. If the wiring...
view full answer... - Brake Controller Wiring and Installation Kit For a 2000 Chevrolet VentureWe have an online information page, see link that contains a wiring diagram that shows how all the trailer wiring connections are made. Along with a four-way wiring harness, item # 118391 for the Equinox and # C55355 for the Venture, you will also need the # ETBC7 brake controller installation kit. There is an online video that shows the installation kit being installed on a 2003 Chevrolet Express Van which will be similar to the installation on your vehicles. The blue wire is the brake...
view full answer... - T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness Part # C55355 for a 1999 Chevy VentureI am assuming you are needing a T-Connector, part # C55355. The connection point is behind the trim panel on the drivers side, just behind the taillights. I will provide a link below to the installation instructions, which will explain the whole installation procedure. We also have an installation video showing the install on a 2002 Venture. The procedure would be identical to that of your 1999 model.
view full answer... - Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness on 1998 Oldsmobile Silhouette Shorting OutTo run down a short in a wire you will need to use a circuit tester, item # PTW2993 if you need one, to test the wiring and find the short. The place I would start is on the vehicle side of the converter. Check each wire there, with a helper to turn on turn signals and step on the brakes and be sure that each circuit is functioning properly. While you are behind the taillights make sure the ground wire is attached to a good grounding point. Next I would test the wiring coming out of the...
view full answer... - Location of Factory Connection Point for Trailer Wiring Harness on a 2003 Chevy VentureThe plug will be there on a 2003. It is just that we have not had a 2003 Venture in to make a video but we have had a 2002 and 2004. To find the factory harness you will need to pull up the threshold panel in the cargo area so you can pull back the panel on the driver side. The wiring harness should be nearer the end of the vehicle. It can be either a single connector with nothing plugged into it or two connectors connected together. It can also be located behind an air conditioning unit...
view full answer... - Will Curt Trailer Wiring Harness, # C55355, Work with a 2001 Pontiac Montana with Air CompressorAccording to Curt, on some vehicles with air compressors, the plugs will not be accessible through the storage compartment. You would need to pull back the interior trim panels to access the connectors. So the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4 Pole Trailer Connector, # C55355, is the correct harness for your 2001 Pontiac Montana. I have included a link to the installation instructions below. I do not recommend splicing the brake light wire into the turn signal wire as it would...
view full answer... - Tow Ready Trailer Wiring Recommendation for a 2003 Chevy VentureFor your 2003 Chevy Venture you can absolutely use the Curt # C55355 you mentioned. This unit will not require any wire cutting or splicing to install on your vehicle. It will be a simple plug and play installation. I attached installation instructions for you to check out also.
view full answer... - Will Curt Class III Trailer Hitch Fit Short Wheelbase 2000 Pontiac Montana?Yes, the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, # 13344, will fit your 2000 Pontiac Montana with a short wheelbase. This hitch would actually be my recommendation for you. I usually prefer Curt trailer hitches because I know they like to be a little liberal with their powder coating and in this case, it has the highest weight capacities of any hitch for your van so it has plenty of built-in safety margin. All of the wiring harnesses for your vehicle are basically the same thing, but built by different...
view full answer... - Trailer Right Turn Signal Not Working When Connected To 2004 Chevy VentureSince the trailer lights are working when connected to the 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan, it sounds as though the converter that is in your 2004 Chevy Venture trailer wiring harness might be damaged. You will need to use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 and check the wire for the right turn signal that is going into the converter box. If it has power going into the box, then you will need to check the wire for the right turn signal coming out of the converter box. If there is no power...
view full answer... - Difference Between Hopkins # HM41365 and Curt # C55355 Wiring Harness for 2003 Olds SlihouetteBoth the Hopkins # HM41365 and the Curt # C55355 would be correct for your Silhouette. Both wiring harnesses have the same capacity, preform the same function and would install in the same manner. I recommend going with the Curt option as we've found the converter in this particular harness to hold up better over time than other options like the Hopkins harness above. I included a link to the instructions for both harnesses for you to take a look at.

In either case it could be hiding behind another wire bundle or even taped up with another bundle so you cannot see it. I have included links to a couple of videos showing typical installations...
