  • 90-Day limited warranty


Installation

This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located in your rear cargo area, on the driver's side and passenger's side. You will have to remove the rear threshold, cargo trays, and some interior lining/paneling to access this harness. Once you've plugged in the connector, run the red hot lead up to your car battery. Connect 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 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.


Powered Tail Light Converter

A tail light converter is built into this T-connector. This converter is a 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.

I ordered this with a Draw-Tite hitch, but the box was damaged and it was not in the package. I opened a ticket with customer service on 7/11 and emailed them 3 times between 7/12 and 7/23 with no response. unless this is cleared up soon, I'm going to think twice before recommending etrailer.



by:

The video was very helpful. It took me a while but I felt I got a good install. A lift would have made this a quick job.

Fast accurate delivery of hitch and wiring harness. These folks do business the right way.

Everything worked out perfectly. A YouTube video was helpful in the installation. I purchased a circuit tester to help confirm the installation.

Well put together. Good instructions. Does what is supposed to.

Everything was included that was needed. Had to use YouTube to find exactly how to install the wiring in my Rav4.

Product was a "plug & play" operation. It is functing very well from the day it was installed.

I am very pleased with the products that I received! Everything arrived in great shape, and was fairly easy to install!



by:

All items were as vendor claimed (matched wiring for my Avalon). Items were easily installed with excellent fit. They were shipped in a timely manner and arrived accordingly. This vendor fits the characteristics of great customer service (quality, price, service). Excellent follow-up w/ customer.

  • Can a 2018 Toyota RAV4 Carry a Powered Wheelchair on a Trailer Hitch
    From my research your 2018 Toyota RAV4 has a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds if you have the tow package with All-wheel drive. If you have the tow package with 2-wheel drive then it drops to 2,900 pounds and it drops to 1,500 pounds if you don't have the tow package at all. The tongue weight should also be between 9 to 11 percent of the trailer's weight according to Toyota so your numbers are 385 pounds, 319 pounds, and 165 pounds respectively. Additionally I found that if you...

  • Recommended Wiring Kit for Towing with a 2017 Toyota RAV4
    Out of the Curt # C56350, Tekonsha T-One # 118578, and Hopkins # HM11141820 wiring harness kits for your 2017 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid I highly recommend going with the T-One option. The reason being that we have found the Tekonsha electronic equipment to last longer and work better than many other brands. The installation is fairly simple and only requires you to plug in the T adapters behind the tail lights, grounding a wire, and then run a hot lead up to the battery. I have attached a video...

  • Brake Controller and 7-Way Trailer Connector Installation on 2015 Toyota RAV4
    In order to install your brake controller in your 2015 Rav 4, you'll need to first install a functional 4-pole connector like the # HM11141820. Once the connector's in place, you can continue the installation using our Brake Controller Install Kit, part # ETBC7. The Toyota RAV4 isn't set up for a plug and play brake controller installation. The ETBC7 kit contains an adapter to convert the 4-pole to a 7-way trailer connector, along with all the wire, hardware, connectors and circuit breakers...

  • Recommended Hidden Trailer Hitch for a 2018 Toyota RAV4
    If you don't like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98864 because of the visible crosstube then check out the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7219 which has a concealed crosstube that provides a much cleaner look and factory like appearance. It features a bolt-on, drill-free installation and provides a 2" opening which can be used for bike racks or cargo carriers or towing a trailer. In order to complete your towing setup you'll also need a wiring harness and...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2018 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid
    Yes, we do. I recommend Curt, part # C13406. It's a fit for all of the 2018 RAV4's including the Hybrid model like you have. I like how the crosstube is hidden behind the RAV4's bumper and all you see is the receiver tube sticking out. Take a look at the picture I attached. I've also linked the install video for you, which isn't on a Hybrid model but the install is the same. The wiring harness # HM11141820 from Hopkins gives you a 4-way to power the trailer lights. It plugs into...

  • 4-Pole Trailer Wiring Harness for 2003 Toyota Avalon That Does Not Require 12V Power Connection
    Many vehicles like your 2003 Toyota Avalon are specified to use only a powered (or active) trailer lighting harness such as the four shown on the link provided, one of which is the Curt # C59236. The Hopkins harness # HM11141820 that you referenced also requires a 12V power connection to the vehicle battery, but note this harness is not a fit for your 2003 Avalon. The reason that only powered harnesses are offered for your car is that the wiring in the vehicle is not heavy enough to handle...

  • Troubleshooting Failed Hopkins Powered Taillight Converter 46255 in 2013 Toyota RAV4
    The Hopkins 4-pole harness we offer for your RAV4 is part # HM11141820 and this installs by plugging in at your taillight wiring connectors and via a single 12V power wire connection at your vehicle battery. If your vehicle taillights failed after these harness installations this suggests a problem in the converter module itself or a short in the connectors/wiring between the vehicle and the module. The good new is that the unit did what it was intended to - fail before it allowed any damage...

  • Connecting Wiring Harness to Battery of 2018 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid
    Though I would not be able to speak for anyone else I believe that what you saw was probably referring to connecting the 12 volt hot lead to the auxiliary battery on a hybrid. However, it is strongly recommended when installing Vehicle Wiring Harness # HM11141820 on your 2018 Toyota RAV4 hybrid to the main battery in the front of the vehicle.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2018 RAV4 Hybrid SE
    The Curt hitch, part # C11375, is designed specifically for the Scion tC. It won't fit your 2018 Toyota RAV4 hybrid but we do have hitches that will. Out of all of them I recommend the Curt Class III, part # C13406. A Class III hitch is 2 inches and has a much higher capacity than the Class I you were looking at. There's also a much larger variety of accessories that fit. If you're going to be towing a trailer with your RAV4 you also need a ball mount. I've linked our selection to...
