On your trailer you'd need to find the trailer wiring light that controls the running light circuit which is the same as the license plate light circuit. Typically it's a brown wire but if you can't find that use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 which you can use to test the wires till you find the circuit that is hot when the running lights are on. This would be circuit to use as activation circuit for the Furrion Vision S part # FOS43TASF. view full answer...
Yes, the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs - Side Loading, part # TH898, does work with the Yakima JetStream crossbars. Provided your crossbars extend beyond the Thule foot between 4" and 8".
I have included a video review link and a diagram showing how much room your crossbars need to accommodate the Thule Hullavator. view full answer...
Don't worry, the spare tire on your 2022 Kia Telluride will be put back on once installation of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13420 is complete. Overall the installation of this hitch is pretty straight forward and you don't need to be super handy to accomplish it. There are a few things of note, like having to temporarily lower the exhaust and remove an underbody panel on the driver side. Aside from that you just raise the hitch into place, bolt it in and do some light fascia trimming... view full answer...
It looks like you've got everything you need, except for a brake controller.
The Curt # C51180 Echo Wireless Brake Controller would be very effective, with your vehicle being already pre-wired, the install would be plug and play. The only knock I have on the Echo is that it can't be locked to the vehicle. If you leave your vehicle unattended for a few minutes, somebody could walk off with it, which would leave you without functional trailer brakes.
For this reason, and because you're... view full answer...
The Redarc Tow Pro Elite part # RED44FR that you referenced can be installed on your 2022 Kia Telluride but you'd need the # ETBC7 since the factory tow package for your vehicle provides a 4-way. This kit comes with everything needed to convert to a 7-way and wire up the Tow Pro Elite as well. view full answer...
I'll start off by saying that the two stock tire sizes on the 2020 Kia Telluride are 245/60r18 and 245/50r20- which are both 29.6" in total diameter- so the hitch is not going to interfere with your spare tire as long as it's the 245/50r20 tire and not larger.
When it comes to the height of the hitch from the ground, the # e45ZR measures 15-3/4" from the top of the receiver to the ground. view full answer...
It sounds like you're trying to use the Tow Ready 4 Pole to 5 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter # 20036 on your 2020 Kia Telluride. In order to find which wire corresponds to the reverse light circuit on your vehicle you will need to use a circuit tester like the # PTW2993 and have someone put the car in reverse to see which wire is activated; this is how you determine which wire represents the reverse light circuit. From there, you can splice it into the reverse circuit wire on the Tow Ready... view full answer...
In regards to the Adapter 4 Pole to 7 Pole and 4 Pole w/Test Lamps part # C57674, the 12 volt power circuit (black wire) will remain active at all times if connected directly to the battery. That said, the LED on the trailer connector doesn't draw enough power to drain the battery if that is what you are worried about. If you only want the circuit active while the vehicle is running then you will need to install the Battery Isolation Solenoid part # PK5231201 which works as an automatic... view full answer...
As long as your factory 7-way along with the corresponding fuses were all installed on your 2022 Kia Telluride you will simply need to connect the Wiring Adapter # C77BR to install the Curt Spectrum Trailer Brake Controller # C51170. I have linked an installation video below which discusses the controller and shows the installation process. If you run into issues you can check your owners manual to ensure all the correct fuses are in place. view full answer...
Since the tongue of your trailer flares out you could just cut a piece of wood to match the angle of the flare to square up the tongue and then clamp-on the etrailer Round/Wheeled Swivel Jack # e79CR. If the trailer stays outside a majority of the time you could coat the wood with an exterior paint or use composite to prevent it from rotting. view full answer...
There is no drilling or welding required to install the etrailer hitch # e45ZR on your 2023 Kia Telluride. To see more of what the install process looks like check out the install video link I attached to this page as well. view full answer...
In the install instructions for the Curt hitch part # C13420 there is a diagram that shows exactly how to measure to make the correct fascia trimming but it does not come with a template so that was a poor choice of words by the installer in the attached video. If you check out step four of the attached install instructions link you'll see how to measure though. view full answer...
I recommend setting the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack # RR43FM to where the front edge of the platform is lined up to the farthest edge of your skylight.
For reference, I've attached a customer submited picture of their Subaru Outback doing what I'm describing. view full answer...
That is correct. Since the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 only requires 12V power to function properly you just need to plug in the 4-Way, ground the white wire, and then route the black wire to the battery on your vehicle through the included circuit breaker for the Kit # ETBC7L.
I have attached a review video that you can reference. view full answer...
That is a great question. The Kuat Piston Pro # KU76ZR can only be used with (1) add on at a time. Meaning you could not buy the 1-bike add on now, and then add another 1-bike add on to that to make a 4 bike rack. If you plan to ever carry 4 bikes, you will want to get the 2-bike add on # KU26ZR. This is the only way to turn the Kuat Piston Pro into a 4 bike rack. view full answer...
The Universal Wiring Harness for Redarc Tow-Pro Trailer Brake Controllers # RED69FR only needs to be purchased separately for the # RED24FR. You will, however, still use this wiring harness for installation.
The Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR comes with the wiring harness. You will need to splice the wiring harness into your vehicle wiring, and then plug the end directly into the main unit. Unfortunately, there is not a plug-and-play wiring harness available for... view full answer...
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13420 can definitely be installed at home without having to take it to a shop for installation. This is a bolt-on installation and some trimming is required. One customer said she installed the hitch with her husband in a little over an hour.
If you plan on doing some towing, I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # CU94FR which you can also easily install yourself. This wiring harness plugs into existing wiring and will provide you with... view full answer...
While ideally, the flange would be flush against the frame, this does not look like anything out of the ordinary. These hitches are made of a mild flex steel and are designed to bend. Looking at the structure of this hitch, it is likely that we do have a very slight bend somewhere. If you were able to get the bolts torqued to spec, this will be fine to use. If you do want to remove the hitch and correct the bend, it is very easy to do. I have included a link below to our guide on correcting... view full answer...
Yes. You can use the inner channels on the Rhino-Rack Universal Platform Rack # RR42115BF to mount the clamps, but this cannot be done on the # RR42114BF - per my contact at Rhino-Rack. view full answer...
Yes, you can offset the Thule Sidekick Roof Mounted Cargo Carrier Box # TH78GC as opposed to mounting it directly in the center of the crossbars on your 2021 Kia Telluride. This opens up to the passenger side of the vehicle so I recommend mounting it closer to the passenger side of your vehicle so you aren't having to reach as far to gain access to the inside of the box. view full answer...
