Installation
This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the rear bumper, on the driver's side.
Once installation is complete, the 4-way flat connector will be stowed beneath your vehicle, near the trailer hitch. A mounting bracket (sold separately) is recommended to keep the connector secure.
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.

Ugh, it looks like the shipping has been updated via the tracking number and you should be receiving the order today at some point [9-18]. Please let me know if you do not receive it this evening. I would also love to hear your feedback on your experience once you actually do receive the item. I am sorry for the inconvenience this has caused you.

I recently recieved my tow hitch for a 2000 Dodge Dakota. The part arrived promptly and in excelent condition. I was very pleased with the quality of this hitch by Curt. It was very stout and had great welds. I haven't had a chance to mount the unit yet but the measurements look to be right on. etrailer.com has a new customer.

did not fit I had to splice in 14" of wire so it could reach the two tail lights
and this was the second one I purchased the first one did not have the correct connectors

This part is meant for Jeeps that have the factory tow package. I am wondering if that is the issue here. If your jeep doesnt have that then you would need part # 118425.

The product was everything that was advertised it arrived in perfect condition I guess I just misunderstood what I needed and inevitably ordered the wrong part my 05 Jeep Liberty did not come with a 7-way so I need a different harness to be able to hook up my trailer should have called customer service first

The kit was extremely easy to install and fits like a fine glove. So easy in fact that the factory could not have done better looking job. Works great although I rarely use my trailer but I know when I do, I can rest assured that the wiring will not be a problem as it used to be.

have since started driving a different vehicle. My jeep bit the dust. I liked the harness and it always worked fine but I didnt get to use it too long. I do remember how easy and well thought out the installation process was. I do keep a link to your website and have turned on others to it. Sometimes it was already too late but now they know its there. Ill definitely keep you guys in mind in the future
by: Lisa05/28/2019
This product was what was recommended by your site as the proper wiring harness and it IS NOT compatible with my vehicle. Our family’s vacation has already been pushed back by 2 days dealing with this situation and we are still working on finding a local solution!

This wiring harness is only compatible if your Freightliner Sprinter has the factory equipped 7-way trailer connector, as we state in our product fit guide. If your Sprinter does NOT have the factory 7-way, youd need part # 118650 instead.

etrailer received, filled, packaged and shipped my small order (wiring harness) within an hour, then turned it over to the US Post Office.... Within 2 days, it crossed the state line from Missouri into Illinois. A few days later, it was received in Chicago and should have arrived in Canada in short order.... Instead, tracking my order a week later revealed that it was resting comfortably in Miami Florida. A call to etrailer and Carol soon straightened things out. It eventually found its way to me and I am quite pleased with the service from etrailer. The Post Office? Well, you know..... Bobber.

The T-wire harness was great, installed well and works fine.
The Seat covers are great as well, durable and easy to install, will consider rear seat covers if available?
The stabilizer bracket would not work with my platform rig, but looked of good quality and I will find a use for it.

2006 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
Bought this for a 2006 Dodge Sprinter didn't realize it would not work on a Sprinter with out towing package. Had to buy different kit and splice the wires in (not fun) make sure you have the right kit if you are working on a Sprinter. On a vehicle with the right harness it works great just plug in and go.

Dodge Durango
Thanks to etrailer's excellent customer service, I was FINALLY able to order the correct wiring harness for my '01 Dodge Durango. There are many variables due to several Durango models, and this was the correct one. Has worked flawlessly since installation.
by: Jack L10/02/2019
Easy to install, hidden when not in use, doesn't reduce ground clearance and trouble free. Local hitch installer quoted me $350 and said it would take 3" off my clearance. I saved over $200 and got a better setup.

Super easy to install and worked right away, no additional fuses or lights necessary. Videos were easy to find on [online] and very easy to follow. Would recommend this to anybody. Mine did not come with the double sided tape, but I had some lying around so no worries.

2007 Jeep Liberty
I watched a video of theirs on Youtube which linked to the correct part and I bought what the video linked to, assuming it was the one shown in the video (without the factory 7-way). They sold me the one that uses the factory 7-way (which I don't have) and when I called asking to exchange it for the right one, they said it wasn't possible. They said they'd take it on refund, but are charging me for return shipping, and considering it's such a lightweight and cheap part to ship (and their website's mistake), I'm losing a significant portion of the money I spent on it.

For a 2004 Dodge Dakota with a factory seven way this harness adds a 4 flat. For a 2004 Dodge Dakota that did not come with a factory harness part # 118323 would be a fit.

It would have been very easy to install but my truck did not have the quick disconnect behind the bumper.

You mentioned that you were not able to find the connector and I wanted to ask if you were adding on the 4 flat or replacing it.

- Will Curt Bumper Hitch E-3S Fit a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500The Curt # E-3S bumper hitch is a universal application, so it does not have vehicle specific fits. This hitch would mount using four holes, two that would use 3/4 inch diameter bolts, and two that use 1/2 inch diameter bolts. You will need to measure to determine if the # E-3S hitch will work on your 2007 Dodge Ram 1500. The 3/4 inch holes are 8-3/4 inches apart, from center to center, and the 1/2 inch holes are 6-1/6 inches apart from center to center. These holes would need to...

This harness is custom fit for a full-sized Dodge van. We do offer a custom harness for the Toyota Sienna Van, the T-One wiring harness you need is part number 118304. For your convenience, I will attach links to the referenced products, a helpful FAQ wiring page and an installation video for the 2004 Sienna.

Since your 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee does NOT have such a port under the dash any brake controller you install will be a hardwired installation. If the GC has no factory trailer socket at the rear then brake controller installation will require our all-inclusive...
view full answer... - How To Choose the Correct Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2002 Dodge DurangoThere are two different trailer wiring harnesses for a 2002 Dodge Durango which will be dependent on whether or not you have the tow package. If you do have the factory tow package then you can use the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 118381 which only uses one plug but if you don't have the factory tow package then you will need to use the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 118334 which uses two plugs. It doesn't sound like you have the factory tow package therefore will need the...

If your vehicle has the factory tow package, the harness you will need to connect to is found under the vehicle in the center behind your hitch receiver. If you have that tow package then you can simply use the Tekonsha # 118381 for a 4-Way or # 20135 for a 7-way. You may still need to add # 5506 on some models for 12v...

The next thing you will need is an Adapter 4 Pole to 5 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter, part # 20036. This adapter will plug into the 4-way that you just installed with the # 118381, and then you can run the blue wire...
view full answer... - Recommendation for a Trailer Hitch that Bolts to Bumper Support on a 2009 Dodge Ram 1500You are correct, your 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 does have a bumper support at the back that attaches to each frame rail with a support in the center that rests under the step bumper so you can place a hitch ball. The Curt Trailer Hitch, # 13333, that you have referenced attaches to the bumper support and uses the ball hole as an attachment point also, so it is compatible with your truck. The hitch can be used with weight distribution. I have included a link to the installation details for the...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Install a 7-way, 6-Way and a 4-Way on a 2001 Dodge VanThe Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring # 118381 that your referenced once installed will give you a functioning 4-way at the rear of your 2001 Dodge Van. Next I would recommend you install a Adapter 4 Pole to 7 Pole # 37185. This will give you a 4-way and a 7-way. Finally, I would recommend you get a Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow Trailer Connector Adapter # HM47570. This will plug into the 7-way of the # 37185 when needed and give you a 6-way, a 5-way and a 4-way.

view full answer... - Can Trailer Wiring Without Converter be Installed on a 2007 Jeep LibertyIf you have the factory tow package on your 2007 Jeep Liberty then you can use the Tekonsha # 118381 or # 20135 which is just wires without a converter. If you don't have the factory tow package then you need the Tekonsha # 118524 which does have the converter. I find it a little odd that the converter popped all of the fuses on your vehicle because the purpose of the converter is to protect your vehicle OEM wiring. With the Tekonsha # 118524 mentioned above it will draw power directly...

If you have no trailer connector you can use the 4-pole harness # C55504 that you referenced; this plugs in at the taillight wiring connectors. Note that in both of these trailer wiring formats the vehicle's stop light and turn signal functions are...

From what you're describing it sounds like you're wanting the Curt harness that essentially works outside of the OEM trailer wiring harness. Please note that while this will allow you to tow a trailer with a 4-Way quite easily,...
view full answer... - Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2005 Dodge DurangoIf your 2005 Dodge Durango came with the factory installed 7-Way and for whatever reason it is no longer there then yes, using # 118381 will provide the lighting functions for the trailer: running lights, brake lights, and turn signals. If the vehicle did not come with a factory trailer connector then you would use harness # 118390 which plugs in line with the vehicle tail light wiring and requires a direct connection to the vehicle battery. I have linked some videos and instructions for you.

Part # 118381 would plug inline with the wiring harness leading to the 7-way. Since you do not have the factory hitch, you probably do not have the tow package and would want to use part # 118554. Installation is pretty simple. Access the rear of the tail light assemblies, plug the connectors inline with the existing connections behind the tail lights, and run the power...

If your Jeep is not equipped with the tow package, then you will need harness # 118425. This harness will plug into the existing...

If the problem is with the lights on the trailer, unplug the trailer and use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 on the trailer connector as each lighting function is activated. This will help determine if the wiring problem is on the truck or in the wiring on the trailer. If you find the problem is on the vehicle wiring, the easiest course of action...

Just like in the video I attached. If the voltage checks out there but the trailer lights still don't function right then the problem is on the trailer wiring.

A year out still 5 stars. Its common on these 4 pin connectors to have the plastic rub off next to the single exposed pin, this is no different. Still functional and stays connected throughout use.
