Expert Answers about Nissan Titan


  • Is Image Supposed to be Reversed on the Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System
  • Yes, this is normal. I have the Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System, # HM50002, and it does show the same image orientation as the mirror. I am actually glad it does because if it did not, it would be awkward looking at it and then the mirrors and back to the monitor again. It would get a little confusing.

  • Parts Needed to Install a Brake Controller on a 2013 Nissan Titan
  • To install a brake controller like the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885 that you referenced in your 2013 Nissan Titan all you would need is the Brake Controller Adapter part # 3050-P if you have a factory 7-way. If you do not have the factory 7-way then you would additionally just need the 7-Way Install for Nissans part # N40975. I attached install videos for both products. Having a breakaway system on your trailer should not affect how a brake controller would install.

  • Is There a Specific Height Truck Can be to Install Weight Distribution
  • You are likely still experiencing sway because for a weight distribution system like the Strait-Line Weight Distribution System with Sway Control # RP66084 you should have 5 links between between hook and U-bolt but no less than 4. There isn't a specified height that your truck can be to grab another link, so you can adjust as needed by raising your trailer tongue with the jack until you are level.

  • To install the Draw-Tite Activator Brake Controller # 5504 that you referenced on your 2018 Nissan Titan you will need the Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3050-P. One end of the adapter plugs into the brake controller itself and the other end will connect right to the factory port that's located behind the dash, on the left hand side by the emergency brake pedal. There is a dash panel there that needs to be removed to gain access to the plug, which should be white in color and labeled "Electric...

  • Availability and Installation of Trailer Wiring Harness on 2007 Nissan Titan
  • It sounds like you are wanting to install a 4-Way connector to the rear of your 2007 Nissan Titan for your tailgate light bar to plug into. If you do not have a factory 7-way on the rear of your 2007 Nissan Titan you can use the Hopkins 7-Way and 4-Way Vehicle End Trailer Connector, part # N40975, you have referenced. This connector comes with the three relays and the mounting bracket. It plugs into the vehicles wiring harness behind the bumper and gives you a 7-Way and a 4-way at the...

  • Why Can't A Draw-Tite Weld On Hitch Be Used With A Weight Distribution Hitch?
  • The Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Cross Tube # 41990 has not been rated for or tested with weight distribution. Due to this, Draw-Tite has said that this is not for use with weight distribution at this time. This is a pretty common listing/warning for weld-on truck hitches, unfortunately. I was hoping to refer you to an RV hitch as some of those are rated for use with weight distribution, but the maximum capacity for these hitch will only be 6,000 pounds. And that is...

  • 2017 Nissan Titan Electric Brake Controller Plug Location
  • For your 2017 Nissan Titan, the models with the factory 7-way will have the harness under the dash, above the gas pedal. This is a different location from the older models that were found near the emergency brake pedal. If you don't have the harness or controller yet, I recommend the wiring harness # 3050-P and the Prodigy P3 Controller # 90195. At your 7-way the brake controller output is found at the 5 o'clock pin location.

  • Installing Wiring Harness on 2005 Nissan Titan
  • I do have the right part for you, but the Replacement Wiring Harness for Tow Ready Nissan Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118267 will not work on your 2005 Nissan Titan. The right part will be the Factory Style 7-Way and 4-Way Flat Vehicle End Trailer Connector # N40975. This will allow you to connect to your factory 7-way wiring.

  • How to Activate the Tow Package Wiring on a 2012 Nissan Titan
  • If your 2012 Nissan Titan did not come with the factory tow package, then there will be some additional relays that you will need to install to activate the trailer wiring on your truck. You will need the Curt Relay Kit, # C57000. This kit includes three relays that will need to be installed in the power distribution box under the hood. I have attached an installation video of this relay kit on a 2011 Nissan Titan for you to check out. The installation will be the same as your 2012 Titan.

  • Installation of SuperSprings Helper Springs on a 2006 Nissan Titan
  • You are correct, when installing SuperSprings # SSA20 on your 2006 Nissan Titan there is a special note in the instructions stating to remove the rear rebound clip bolt and roller to avoid contact with the SuperSprings. The picture in the instructions which I have linked for you seems to show the SuperSprings resting on top of the rebound clip.

  • In regards to the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger part # PD4045KA, the maximum size wire you can use on the battery terminal lug attached to the circuit board on the DC side is 2 gauge but this would be a super tight fit and we instead recommend 4 gauge.

  • How to Find the Brake Switch Wire on Factory Brake Control Harness on a 2011 Nissan Titan
  • What you can do is use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 if needed to test the wires on the factory harness. The brake controller red wire is for input from the brake signal on the truck. When you test the wires, you will need the one that shows a signal on the tester only when you step on the brake pedal. If the wire shows a signal at any other time, like when the headlamps are on or turn signals are on it is not the correct wire. For the remaining wires on the brake controller, the white...

  • Can a Titan Model 10 Actuator Support Two Drum Brake Axles
  • A model 10 Titan actuator can handle the volume of brake fluid required to activate the brakes of a tandem axle trailer. You would just need to add the brake lines, brake assemblies, and hub drums to the axle so that it will have brakes as well. I attached a help article on adding hydraulic assemblies to a trailer for you to check out. Basically you are going to need to know what spindles you have on your trailer so that you can pick out the correct hub/drums and then assemblies based...

  • Why Does the Light of a Tekonsha Powertrac Go From Green to Orange When Brakes Applied
  • The Tekonsha Brake Controller part # 39523 has a green light that indicates that the brake controller is connected to the brakes of a trailer. As the brake controller begins to apply the trailer brakes that light changes from green to orange and then to red as the output increases. It sounds like your brake controller is working properly, but I attached a review video for this controller plus a help article on troubleshooting brake controllers.

  • Pilot Brake Controller Installation in 2015 Nissan Titan With Factory Tow Package
  • If your 2015 Nissan Titan came from the factory with a 7-way connector at the back bumper then it should also have a brake controller connection port under the dash. Since your Pilot brake controller # 80550 has 4 wire leads the best option is to use part # 3050-P and simply cut off the black flat connector. You can then join the wires color for color to those on the Pilot and connect the white plug to the port under your dash. Only four wire connections are required. Your Titan does...
