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 rear access panels. You will have to remove trunk floor coverings, scuff panel, and interior side panel 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 trunk.
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.

Product is good but install is not really plug and play. Be ready to run a wire from the battery through the firewall under the car to the rear tail light area. Install is not as quick as you think it will be when you order. But after all is said and done it works well and quality is good.
I have purchased 2 of these and they are great! The instructions were easy to follow.
After installing 2 Tekonsha T-One connectors without brake light functions, this controller was a godsend. Works exactly as it should on 2021.5 VW Atlas. Brake, running lights and turn signals all work correctly with this connector without having to modify the OEM wire harness. This system is plug and play with the most difficult part being routing the independent power to the battery above the intricate plastic protector plates underneath the car.
I will be installing next to better answer these questions
This harness is the one to use for a 2021 Atlas. Works perfectly and is simple to fit. Running the live wire under the car from back to front sounds daunting but in reality is a simple task. The plugs into the lights is very easy and takes only two minutes. Overall a great easy product.
Easy installation
