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.

Black box has something shorting out in it . Trailer lights worked good at first went to Minneapolis and back I problems . One day I come out and my right turn signal on my car is on . I had to unplug the fuse from the power wire to have my turn signals work normal . Hasn't worked right ever since
Everything is still working as it should...
It doesn't matter if it's our Kayak trailer or our small utility trailer the lights always work like the should.
Good easy to follow directions and a reasonably simple install.
Definitely would recommend!
Fantastic service! Quality product, and easy to follow instructions. The installation video really is informative and we'll done. Everything still working great after 1 year. I got a perfect fit,too! The plug end curls perfectly around the hitch and tucks inside it, underneath the car, staying in place and hidden out of sight until needed. A++
Easy installation, with one exception. To correctly run the wires from the control relay to the light assembly without running them directly beside the rubber - which puts wire on sharp edge steel, instead of through the grommet, I cut the wires, ran them through the grommet and spliced together. This is much better. Curt mfg. should install inline connectors to make this easier.
Easy to install. Could have a better way of getting the inline plugs through the existing grommet easier, i.e. having quick connects so there is no need to cut the grommet. Other then that it was fairly simple to install barring the vehicles interior panels. The pigtail hides nicely under the drivers side rear window where there is an existing hole for access to one of the wing nuts for the tail light.
The wire harness made it simple to put a trailer connector on my focus and works great for when I need to tow a trailer. I would highly recommend this product.
Exact fit, all attaching hardware, good instructions, works perfectly!
Easy install if you ever done car wiring. As simple as wiring subs. Didn’t enjoy popping the taillights out but worth it.
Everything was as advertised. The instructions were easy to follow and all went well.
With some help from a friend we installed this in 15 minutes, on my 2013 Ford Focus St. All cables and connections have held up well for the year I’ve had it, and I’ve used it a lot. I would recommend this product.
Great product, it's worked well for me for a year.
I brought this to the ford dealer and had them do it in a jiff! saved a lot with already having what I needed.
Easy install
