• Parts Needed to Install Tekonsha Prodigy P3 90195 Trailer Brake Controller in 2015 Mazda CX-9
• The Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 trailer brake controller is an excellent choice and in your 2015 Mazda CX-9 you will need to do a hardwired installation since there is no under-dash connection port. All you need apart from the controller is our installation kit # ETBC7. If the car does not already have a working 4-pole you will need to add one of those first, part # 118520. Installation videos for both kits are linked for you.

• Where Does the 15-Amp Fuse for the Curt T-Connector Wiring Harness Go?
• I believe the fuse referenced on your Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56338 is the fuse that goes into the fuse holder on the power (red) wire. I would check there first and see if the fuse has blown which sounds like it may have if all your wiring is good and you're still getting no power. If it has blown, simply replace the 15-amp fuse with another and check for functionality. If you're still having issues after checking this, come back...

• Tekonsha Primus IQ TK90160 Trailer Brake Controller Installation in 2010 Mazda CX9
• Not all vehicles have an under-dash connection port for installation of a trailer brake controller such as the Tekonsha Primus IQ # TK90160. Usually pickup trucks and other vehicles expressly designed to tow a trailer and that have a factory-installed trailer socket will have this feature included under the dash. The 2010 Mazda CX-9 does not have such a connection port. In this particular vehicle brake controller installation will use a combination of a basic 4-pole harness # 118520, which...

• Can You Use Any Brake Controller With The Universal Installation Kit ETBC7 & ETBC7L?
• Yes, thats correct! However the 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit for Trailer Brake Controller Installation # ETBC7L is more geared towards wireless brake controllers like the Curt Echo Wireless Brake Controller # C51180 as it only comes with a power wire that you'd run to the battery. Whereas the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7 is designed to be used with traditional brake controllers like the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195 as it comes with the...

• Best Way to Add a 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 2010 Mazda CX-9
• It sounds like you are talking about a 7-Way trailer connector. To install a 7-Way trailer connector on your 2010 Mazda CX-9 you will start by installing a 4-Way using harness # 118520. I have linked a video to the right showing how it installs. Then to add the 7-Way you will need # ETBC7. I have included a couple of links that explain the ETBC7 installation for you.

• Recommended 7 Way Wiring for 2015 Mazda CX-9 That Will Use Curt Echo Brake Controller
• You could potentially use the Tow Ready # 30717 to install the 7 way on your 2015 Mazda CX-9, but it's not really a complete kit and requires that you purchase additional 12 gauge wiring # 12-1-1 (sold by the foot), 30amp breaker # PK54530 and heat shrink butt connectors like the # DW05745-5. Typically when installing a 7 way on a vehicle for use with the Curt Echo # C51180 we recommend using the # ETBC7L, which comes with all wiring, hardware, electrical connectors, and breaker.

• Recommended Wiring Harness for 2015 Mazda CX-9 With Factory Towing Prep Package
• The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # 56016 that you referenced is intended for the Mazda CX-9 without the factory tow prep package, as you noted. Right now the aftermarket makers of wiring harnesses, like Curt and Tow Ready, do not offer a kit for the 2015 CX-9 that has the factory tow prep. You can still use one of the aftermarket 4-pole wiring harnesses such as Curt # 56016 or Tow Ready # 118520 if you prefer. These may well be less costly than an OEM wiring kit and if all...

• Least Obvious Trailer Hitch Receiver and 7-Way Trailer Connector on 2016 and 2017 Mazda CX-9
• The 2016 and 2017 Mazda CX-9 models both use the same trailer hitch receivers and wiring harnesses. Both the Draw-Tite # 76020 and the Curt # C13284 Class III trailer hitch receivers are pretty hidden. But the Draw-Tite seems a little less obvious because there's a little less of the hitch hanging below the bumper. I've linked install videos of both of them for you. There isn't a 7-way trailer connector that plugs into the CX-9's wiring. However, we do have the parts for you to install...

• Recommended Trailer Wiring Harness For A 2023 Mazda CX-9
• I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118278 for your 2023 Mazda CX-9. I like this harness over the others that we offer because it has a more reliable powered converter box that will provide you with a longer run time than the other harnesses that we offer. This T-One connector will plug into your vehicle's factory tow package wiring harness, which is located in your rear cargo area. When the installation is complete you will be able to stow the 4-way connector beneath your...

• I wouldn't abandon your T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118520 for your 2012 Mazda CX-9.

• Replacement Hardware for Curt Trailer Hitch that Fits Mazda CX-9
• To order the replacement hardware to any hitch we sell use part # RHK. Then choose the manufacturer of the hitch from the drop down and type in the hitch's part number. This orders the exact hardware originally included. I found your original order it was for part # 13575 which is a Curt hitch that fits a Mazda CX-9 from 2007 to 2015. I linked an install video too.
