Installation

This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's factory tow package wiring harness, which is located behind your rear bumper on the driver's side.


Once installation is complete, the 4-way 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.

Great wiring harness

Just what I needed. Didn't have to buy entire wiring kit



by:
2017 NissanFrontier

Matched factory plug perfectly, did cover the wires with split loom to protect them and make it look nicer. My truck didn't have the tow package, so the factory connector was dead, as there are other things that need to be done under the hood to make it live, but thats on me for not reading the guide.

Andrew, thank you for your review. If your 2017 Nissan Frontier does not have a tow package you will need part # C56225 that includes the jumper harness and relays. The relays plug into the jumper harness and the harness installs behind the kick panel of the passenger side front door area. I have attached a link to an install on a 2017 Nissan Frontier.

6 yrs ago when I purchased my truck it didn’t have the trailer wiring on it. I shopped around and fought this product and purchased it. I had an issue last year and thought it was the harness so I purchased another one but as it turns out it was a blown fuse deep down in my fuse panel under the hood of my truck. So this is the second one I have bought and I don’t need it because the first one I purchased is still going strong but at this price and quality I’m going to hold on to it in case I do need it down the road. Great product



by:

Great quality, with handy accessories and for less money than from competitors. I've bought several items from etrailer.com, including entire hitch assemblies, and have been satisfied every time.

Screw splicing wires unless you just like being frustrated, miserable, and having regretful thoughts. Even if you are poor.....this will probably be cheaper! If a car has a trailer light hookup this is the ONLY way to go. I had this plugged in working in less than a minute. Hardest part on any of this is finding the wiring adapter on the vehicle. Took me 10 seconds to find it on the Frontier and about 30 seconds to get it hooked up....getting the cover plug off to expose the clean receptacle took some wiggling and a screw driver to push the little release tab. OK, I'll say it took 3 minutes because I had to send my son downstairs to get the little flathead screwdriver!

Just what I needed. Easy to install. Price was reasonable also.

I purchased a hitch, ball mount, ball and wiring for my Frontier. I thought your people were very pleasant. professional and helpful. I did have an issue with power to my lights but after watching one of your video instructions, I realized that I needed to purchase some additional in cab wiring that was shipped promptly. Just installed it and everything works perfectly. By buying your products and doing it myself, I saved about $150. Nice! Thanks

Good product and installed easily.

These are so great and easy. Have ordered these for other vehicles in past, this was for our 12 Frontier. My son put it in took a minute, then a few more to route wire/plug out to back and secure along the route. After 5 minutes, he jumped in the truck to go bring home another Honda



by:

Product fit right out of the box. Shipping was
quick as was installation. Price was was fantastic. I will order all my trailer accessories from etrailor.com in the future.

Snapped into the factory plug exactly like the description said it would. We've always used Hopkins. Thanks.

Easy to install good quality harness.

I am impressed with this harness. It held up good over the winter .They use lots of salt on the roads in my area and I was pleased to find no corrosion on the contacts. Having a rubber boot to cover the plug makes all the difference. I just sprayed with a little rust check before the winter and it held up quite well. Great Product Thanks.

Found what I needed and it shipped promptly. Thanks!

  • How to Set a 2015 Nissan Frontier Up for Towing a Trailer with Brakes
    According to my research, your 2015 Nissan Frontier should have came with a 4-way trailer connector like part # HM43575 which would not have the circuits needed to operate electric brakes. In order to set your vehicle up for towing a trailer with electric brakes you are going to need either a 6 or 7-way trailer connector in addition to a brake controller. For a 7-way trailer connector, I recommend using the 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat part # ETBC7. This trailer connector will allow for you...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness and Mounting Brackets for a 2016 Nissan Frontier
    We do have a variety of trailer connectors and mounting brackets that you can use on your 2016 Nissan Frontier. If you need a 4-Way Flat connector then the Hopkins # HM43575 will work if you have the tow package. If you don't have the tow package then I recommend the Curt # C56225. You can mount either of these using the Tow Ready # 18144 with a no-drill bracket like part # 18140. I have attached some installation videos and the instructions for you to check out.

  • Trailer Lights Do Not Work With 2012 Nissan Frontier
    Since some of the lights on your trailer are not working with your 2012 Nissan Frontier, the first thing to do is take a look at your owner's manual to locate any trailer fuses or relays and ensure they are all there and in working order. If they are, in order to determine the specific problem you will need to purchase a circuit tester if you do not have one - the very handy Cordless Circuit Tester # PTW2979 is my recommendation due to how easy it is to use - and test the connector on your...

    I've included the link to one of our installation videos on the 2019 Nissan Frontier that uses the Curt # C56225, which comes with the relays included; these relays can also be purchased with the Curt Relay Kit # 59700. If you fast forward to around the 3:00 mark of the video it shows where the relays are located and how you'll install them, as well as the installation of the 4 way connector.

  • Replacement Wiring Harness for 2014 Nissan Frontier
    There is a replacement harness you can use in your 2014 Nissan Frontier with factory 4-flat but it will not plug into what you are holding. Instead you would need to use the Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # HM43575, which is designed to be a replacement for your current harness. I also recommend using mounting brackets # 18140 and # 18144 for this harness. I've added links to video reviews of each product for you to take a look at as well.

  • No Power To Trailer Plug On a 2014 Nissan Frontier
    Yes, there will be fuses associated with the trailer lightning circuits on your 2014 Nissan Frontier in the engine bay fuse box. The correct locations will be listed for you on the underside of the cover but as they do not list these in the owner's manual I would have no way to look this up for you. Please let me know if the fuses do not turn out to be the culprit.

  • Are Relays Needed to Install Trailer Wiring in 2006 Nissan Frontier
    If your 2006 Nissan Frontier does not have the factory trailer wiring it would need relays to activate it. For that you would need the part # C56225. If you have the relays already all you would need is the part # HM43575. If you look behind the kick panel in the passenger side of the vehicle you will be able to see if the relays and breakers are there.

  • How Do I Know If I Have The Factory Tow Package Or Not
    If you are unsure if you have the tow package or not, the only way to find out for sure would be to contact a dealership with your VIN. With certain vehicles we can sometimes check to see if certain electrical components are present, like a 7-way trailer plug, which would indicate that you do in fact have a tow package installed. That can be kind of hit-or-miss though, and the best way to find out for sure is to contact a dealership.

  • Troubleshooting Faulty 7-Way Connector on a 2016 Nissan Frontier
    Since you have used 2 different adapters and a different pickup that does seem to point towards the wiring on your 2016 Nissan Frontier as the problem. I would try checking your connector for corrosion or debris and then your wiring; especially your grounds. If you are testing with an LED tester then there isn't much load being put on the circuits. Once you plug up your trailer it is drawing much more power (even more so if it has incandescent lights) which will expose any wiring problems...

  • Recommended 7-Way Trailer Wiring Harness for 2006 Nissan Xterra
    The Hopkins Plug-In Simple Wiring Harness # HM43575 referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2006 Nissan Xterra, but this will provide you with a 4-Way flat connector and not a 7-Way. In order to install a fully functional 7-Way connector on your vehicle, I instead recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118266. This custom-fit harness will install by plugging directly into existing ports located under the vehicle, on the driver's side of your Nissan Xterra....

This will work great on your Xterra and will allow you to add lights to your 24x60 Pro Series Cargo Carrier # 63153 that you referenced. The lights that I recommend for your carrier is the LED Light Kit part # 98174LED.

    The Hopkins Plug-In Simple Wiring Harness part # HM43575 is a great option for a 2009 Nissan Xterra with towing package and it features plug-in-play installation. It comes with the 4-way plug already attached but if you want to remove this for some reason you are free to do so but this is how they come. Please note, backup lights are only feasible with a 7-way wiring harness like the Tekonsha Vehicle Wiring Harness - part # 118282.

  • 2019 Nissan Frontier Trailer Hitch Options
    The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98869 that you were looking at is definitely a great option for your towing needs.

They are very similar in both how they fit and install. The reasons I recommend the etrailer hitch are because I like the finish on the hitch a little more than the other...

If that relay is missing or no longer functions then it can be replaced it with one of the blue relays included in the Curt Relay Kit # C57000.

  • Trailer Running Lights Not Working when Connected to a 2013 Nissan Frontier
    On many Nissan vehicles there is an additional running light relay, # C57000, that is needed for the trailer running lights to work. It is normally located in the in-cab fuse panel. Nissan does not list fuse and relay locations in the owner's manual for the 2013 Frontier so you would have to check the fuse panel lids to see if there is a bad or missing relay.
