Installation
This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side tail lights. You will have to remove the tail light assemblies to access this harness. Once you've plugged in the T-connector, run the hot lead up to your car battery. Connect the lead to the included fuse holder, and then connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal on your battery.
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.

Curt connector has worked great. no issues. It has been installed in my vehicle for over a year now!
This is a fairly easy to install component, it just takes a little while to complete. Everything fits well so no surprises.
Welded up a hitch for my outlander sport and after I got it all bolted on realized there was no wiring. After looking on the internet for a few days I had given up, luckily I found etrailer. 98% of my cars manufactured are cvt’s so you can’t tow. Mine happens to be a Manuel, I talked to the dealer and he said they’ve never made this car in manual. I was very great full to find etrailer and that they somehow managed to make things work!
The light wiring harness arrived in a few days. It came with good directions and I installed it in a couple of hours. The biggest challenge was running the hot wire up to the battery. But it plugged in to the existing wiring behind the taillights. Fairly easy to do yourself.
this product works perfectly ! it fits in the factory harness with no problems and assembles simply. very impressive .

after a year of use i have nothing but good things to say about the hitch and the wiring harness. best money i have spent on a hitch system, well done. thanks for touching base .
After purchasing the wire harness from etrailer I immediately went out to put it on my car. I was amazed at how easy it was to do. Every instruction was there with pictures and I was able to put the wire harness on with ease. The hardest part was running the power cord to thff we battery. Everything else was very easy. Thank you
The product was easy to install and the instructions were very clear. Been using it for a year with no problems.

works great no problems
I had a mechanic install this.
I'm never comfortable taking panels off the interior.
I'll rebuild a suspension, remove an engine, and replace an exhaust, but I don't fool with taking the interior apart.
The instructions that came with the wiring were actually quite good. No problem at all with installation. Very Happy!!!! Love Etrailer. And shipping was super fast.
Instructions were clear and simple. Installation was fairly easy. works great!
Great fit. Only trouble was running the 12 volt power supply from the rear of the car to the engine compartment. Works perfectly.
Product fit my 2017 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport as described and was easy to install and get going. As usual etrailer was great to deal with.
This product was delivered sooner than expected and was very easy to install the instructional videos and instructions that came with it were very helpful I am very happy with my purchase and will definitely be buying from etrailer again in the future.
Plug and play, easy wiring!
Everything I needed to wire harness my Mitsubishi.
Easy easy plug and go. I installed it in 15 min, and my outlander was trailer ready. I’ll store it away for future needs.
First off service was great including fast shipping and the product is perfect very easy to install,works perfect and definitely worth every cent! Thank you!

Really easy to install. The directions are well done. The only thing is the stick pad could have been better, had to use my own method to get the box to stick
I didnt hook this one up, my boyfriend did. But it works great.
Very simple install. Everything fit into place without hassle.
Product is still working fine after a year of use.
