Expert Answers about Chevrolet Equinox


  • Hidden Draw Tite Trailer Hitch that Fits 2019 Chevy Equinox
  • There was a big enough change to the Equinox between 2017 and 2018 that Draw Tite had to redesign a new hitch. For a 2019 you'd need the Draw Tite part # 76419 that you referenced. This hitch has a concealed crosstube too which makes it a bit less visible. See attached picture. I also attached an install video for this on a similar 2018 Equinox.

  • Could 2019 Chevy Equinox be Used to Transport 500 Motorcycle
  • I did some checking and it looks like your 2019 Chevy Equinox could have a towing capacity of between 1,500 and 3,500 lbs which means your tongue weight capacity would be between 150 and 350 lbs. The hitches we offer have a higher tongue capacity than your vehicle which means you'd be limited by the vehicle since it's lowest rated component in setup. There wouldn't be a way to transport a 500 lb motorcycle with your vehicle unless you did so with a small trailer. You'd need trailer wiring...

  • Where to Find Stoplight Circuit for Installing Brake Controller in 2011 Chevy Equinox
  • On a 2011 Chevy Equinox you cannot tap into the brake light switch to install a brake controller. You have to get the signal from the BCM (body control module). It is located up under the dash to the left of the brake pedal. There is a 26-pin connector. You need the wire in position 11. It should be a white wire. I have included a picture that should help.

  • Trailer Hitch, Wiring, and Towing Capacity of a 2015 Chevy Equinox
  • I checked the owner's manual for a 2015 Chevy Equinox and models that have the 2.4 liter motor can tow up to 1,500 pounds and models with the 3.6 liter can tow up to 3,500 pounds. The manual also specifies that these capacities are for trailers with brakes. It doesn't provide any capacity information for trailers without brakes. The Class III trailer hitches for your vehicle such as # 13591 have a gross trailer weight capacity of 3,500 pounds. So if you have the 3.6 liter motor the capacity...

  • Is a Brake Light Relay Needed with a Brake Buddy to Flat Tow a 2014 Chevy Equinox Behind an RV
  • On a 2014 Chevy Equinox you should NOT have to use brake light relay when flat towing the vehicle.

I have included links to some videos showing how these parts install. Check your owners manual because it looks like a fuse has to be pulled to flat tow your Equinox. To make this...
