- Finding Replacement Keys For Yakima Roof Rack and Accessory Same Key Systems When Missing Keys
- You can get the Replacement Control Key # Y8007835 for Yakima Same Key System that is used on your roof rack.

I used the Core # Y8771-A146 and Key # Y8772-A146 as examples, once you have located the key code on the side of the cylinder I can help you find the correct key for your cylinder.

- All Roadmaster Base Plate Kits like the XL Base Plate Kit, item # 1170-1 that you purchased, place the brackets at 28-1/2 inches apart on the vehicle. If your cross bar is the incorrect width you will need the Roadmaster Quick Disconnect Tow Bar Base Assembly, item # 910021-00.
This dimension should work correctly with the Falcon 5250 Tow Bar as long as the crossbar is the original crossbar for Roadmaster base plates. You can measure your crossbar to determine if it is correct.

- When you are having the problems on your 2013 Scion FR-S do you have anything plugged into the Curt wiring harness # C56212? If nothing is plugged into the 4-Way then it should not be drawing any power from the vehicle tail light connections. The only thing I can think of is if there is a short it could be overdrawing the tail light connections causing the problems you are having. That would indicate a problem inside the converter.
To test the harness, use a circuit tester such as # PTW2993...

- The correct Curt 4-pole wiring harness for the 2008 Scion xB is their part # 56062. The harness you referenced, part # 56022, is a specified fit for various model years of Nissan Altima, Maxima and Sentra but not your Scion xB.
The issue you describe, one trailer light function going off when another is turned on, can often be caused by a bad ground connection at the harness' white wire with ring terminal. A weak ground can let one function work while others do not. A bad ground can also...
view full answer... - What Would Cause Curt Wiring Harness for 2008 Scion xB to Short Out After Blowing Fuse
- If you blew a fuse in past and now the converter box has shorted out that would indicate that you most likely over drew the trailer wiring either due to a short or just too much amperage draw on the circuits which shorted the box out. For your 2008 Scion xB the Curt wiring harness part # 56062 that you mentioned does have the highest amperage rating so it would be most resilient to shorts. You might check to see if you have any shorts on the wiring of the trailer and fix as needed.

- For your 2005 Scion tc with p215/45R17 tires the Standard Snow Tire Chains for Passenger Vehicles by Thule - CB12 - Size 090, part # TH01221090, is the correct size for your tire.
I spoke with our installer (the guy you see in the installation video I attached below) and he said you may be encountering a couple different problems.
The first thing he said to try was to take the chains and lay them out, and look for any tangles, and make sure that none of the chains are twisted up at all.

- Since you already tried adjusting the Prodigy P3 Brake Controller # 90195 the cause for the touchy brakes is likely at the brake assemblies themselves. You mentioned that you recently installed new brakes so it could be that they just aren't properly adjusted.
Make sure you are using the adjustment tool to tighten them until you only have a slight drag on the pads. It could be that they are just a bit too tight after the initial install.
If this doesn't resolve the issue please let me know.
view full answer... - Why Would Snow Cables Cause Inner Tire Clearance Issues on a 2008 Scion tC
- First thing you need to do is check the owners manual for your 2008 Scion tC to determine if cables/chains are okay to use on your vehicle. For some vehicles there just isn't enough inner tire clearance to use cables/chains.
For your vehicle the only tire size info we have is 215/45-17 which calls for the # PW1034 Glacier cables. You may be trying to use a set of cables that are just too big and that is why there is the fit issue.
For an option that does not put any portion of the chain...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Trailer Running Lights Staying on with Wiring Kit Installed on 2013 Scion tC
- The trailer wiring harness for your 2013 Scion tC is the Hopkins # HM11141964. This uses a converter box that pulls in power directly from your battery via the lead wire and then use the other wires as "triggers" to tell the box when to send power to the correct functions.
If the 4-Way connector and the ground look clean then you'll want to test the wires going into and out of the converter box. What I'm guessing is happening is that power is jumping from that lead to the running light...
