- Can You Manually Lockout an Electric Reverse Lockout Brake Coupler
- I have a solution for you if you have drum brakes, but I spoke with my contact at Titan and he did not have a recommended way to manually lock out a trailer brake actuator that has an electric reverse lockout.
The best thing you can do is get some free backing trailer brakes. These brakes allow your trailer to back up without activating the brakes, even if your trailer does not have a reverse lockout. Since I do not know what size brakes you have I attached a page that has all of the different...

- The reason why their is a power converter on the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # 119250KIT is so that it bypasses the wiring on your 2017 Mini Clubman. It draws power off of the Black wire connected to the battery and the quick splices will connect to the wiring behind your tail lights so that the converter knows when to send each signal.
Bypassing the wiring on your Clubman helps to prevent any wiring issues with your...
view full answer... - Are There Vehicle Specific Instructions for the ZCI Wiring Harness on a 2017 Mini Clubman
- The reason that the install instructions are not model specific is because the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 119250KIT is a universal kit.

There is also not any custom fit trailer wiring harnesses available for your vehicle so generic instructions...

- Yes. When installing the Draw-Tite # 75151 there is going to be some trimming of the plastic fascia required, since this hitch is a concealed cross tube hitch that mounts behind the bumper on your 2009 Mini Clubman. This may sound a bit daunting, but these modifications are really quite easy and can be done with a hole saw and a standard hand drill. This is the only hitch we have available that is a confirmed fit on your 2009 Mini Clubman.

- The device that you are seeing is a sensor of some kind. It should not be in the way since the hole is supposed to go basically through the middle of where the license plate would be. However on yours it does appear that it may be in the way. It looks as though the sensor is supposed to be higher or lower than it is in the picture. There may be a way to move the sensor enough to to drill the hole.
If you find there is no where to move the sensor I recommend contacting a Mini dealer and...

- In order to insert the hitch pin through the bike rack and hitch receiver on Curt Trailer Hitch # C11387 on a 2010 Mini Clubman, you would have to reach up underneath the rear bumper. There is access to the hitch pin hole and to the safety chain loops for underneath. The design of the Mini is the reason for this method of hitch pin installation.
Because this is a class I, 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch, you will be limited to a bike rack compatible with this type of hitch and limited to just...

- Curt does require use of a stabilization strap for their Class I Hitches. Normally, you'd use a Stabilizing Strap like part # 18050 but like many hatchback vehicles, you're running into a simple problem that is easy to fix.
For this, you'll want to purchase part # Y02612 , a set of Yakima Glass Hatch adapters. This part will give you an alternate location to hook the stabilizing strap to that will evenly apply pressure to the padded security bar, removing the need to mount the support...

- The 4-way round connector is very rare and the 6-way round is somewhat common but more rare than 4-way flats and 7-ways so what that means is that we don't have an adapter for your configuration but I have a similar solution. We have a version of the Custer Wireless Tow Bar Light that uses a 7-way blade with the part # LIW-LDTL-7B which we do have adapters for like with the # 337TC1067P which plugs into your 6-way and converts to same connector as the tow bar.

- I looked up the owners manual for your 2022 Mini Clubman, and it specifies to use tire chains on the front tires only, so that's all you'll need for the Konig Tire Chains # TH00023095.
Having another set on won't add to your Mini's capability so just go with the single set as outlined in the manual.
