Expert Answers about Ford Fusion


  • Will the Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger # 331-BCDC1225D Protect your Starting Battery?
  • The Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger - Dual Input - DC to DC - 12V/24V - 25 Amp # 331-BCDC1225D has a built in battery isolator function to prevent the charger from pulling power from the start battery when the vehicle is off. This will prevent you from draining your starting battery and leaving you stranded in the boondocks. You are correct in that if this function were not present it would cause issues, but they have accounted for that and built in the isolation to prevent that issue.

  • Can a 2016 Ford Fusion be Used to Carry a 200 Lb Scooter
  • I do have an option for you but your 2016 Ford Fusion only has a 200 tongue weight capacity. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C12091 that you referenced which is a fit for your Fusion has a 350 lb tongue weight capacity but since the vehicle is lower it will need to be the figure you abide by. The weakest component when you are towing or hauling is always going to be your limiting factor. The other issue you would run into trying to haul a scooter with the above trailer hitch is...

  • Can I Use Ford LED Lighted Vehicle Emblem On Ford Fusion
  • The Ford LED Lighted Vehicle Emblem - Black part # RP86620 will fit your 2018 Ford Fusion Hybrid if you have a space for it. The emblem measures 9" wide x 3-1/2" tall and simply sticks to your vehicle with heavy-duty tape so you can mount it almost anywhere. A lot of customers stick it to the grill of their vehicle. It will need to be wired to the fusions tail lights.

  • Right Stop/Turn Pin on 4-Way for Ford Fusion Active All the Time
  • I am sorry to hear about the issues you are having with your wiring harness. The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # C56351 is correct for a 2013 Ford Fusion SE. If the right stop/turn signal pin on the 4-way has constant power without either signal active then there is an issue with the converter box and the unit will need to be replaced. For replacement, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 118574. The reason for this is that...

  • Troubleshooting Curt Pole Flat Trailer Connector C56048 Where Running Lights Stopped Working
  • Most likely the pin lost contact for the running light circuit of the # C56048. Disconnecting the connectors on the driver side and reconnecting them to see if that clears out the problem. Otherwise test the brown wire on the input side of the box for voltage with a tester like part # PTW2993 with the running lights on and then test the brown wire on the output side. If there's voltage on input side but not output the box has an internal issue. If no, the issue is the connection to the vehicle.

  • Carrying Two Kayaks on the Roof of a 2017 Ford Fusion
  • You can angle two kayak carriers towards each other to carry them on the roof at the same time. You'll need a roof rack to mount the carriers on. The Yakima JayLow, part # Y04073 is a great example of a universally compatible kayak carrier that can do this. If you don't already have a roof rack, I recommend adding the Rhino Rack Vortex kit, consisting of: Rhino Rack Vortex Crossbars, part # RRVA126B-2 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Vortex Legs, part # RRRLKVA Rhino-Rack DK Fit Kit for Vortex...

  • Trimming Fascia on 2017 Ford Fusion Energi to Install Draw-Tite Receiver Hitch # 24897
  • When installing the Draw-Tite Class I Receiver Hitch # 24897 on your 2017 Ford Fusion Energi (along with the other hitch models available for this vehicle) you will indeed want to trim the rear fascia instead of removing it completely in order to protect the battery. This really shouldn't add much if any time to the install process as it's just going to take the place of having to remove all of the nuts and screws that would be required to remove the entire panel. The fascia will just...

  • Will Curt Trailer Hitch Fit a 2012 Ford Fusion with Dual Exhaust
  • Yes, you can install Curt trailer hitch # C11390 on your 2012 Ford Fusion with dual exhaust. The hitch, like the exhaust configuration on your Fusion, is symmetrical and the hitch will fit above the exhaust on both sides just like in the video I have linked on a single exhaust model. If you want to use the hitch for an accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier then you have to make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are limited...

  • Could Thule Snowpack Extender and Thule Pulse L Fit on Thule Wingbar Evo 150
  • The two should fit no problem on the crossbars you have. The Thule Wingbar Evo crossbars # TH711500 that you have are 60 inches long and the Thule SnowPack Extender Ski and Snowboard Carrier part # TH7325 would take up around 30 inches of bars space give or take. Since the attachment brackets are several inches towards the middle of the rack and are adjustable it's hard to give an exact amount of bar space they take up. The Thule Pulse # TH615 is 33 inches wide and can also hang over...

  • Best Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2015 Ford Fusion for Towing Trailer and Carrying Bike Rack
  • For your 2015 Ford Fusion the best hitch for you will be the Draw-Tite part # 24897. Unlike the Curt it does not require the use of a stabilizer strap when carrying a non-supported load like the bike rack you mentioned planning on towing. I attached an install video for this hitch plus a video that compares all three of them for you to check out as well. For a hitch ball you would want the part # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball or part # 19258 for a 2 inch ball. For trailer wiring...

  • Towing Capacity of a 2016 Ford Fusion SE and Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendations
  • The towing capacity of the 2016 Ford Fusion is going to depend on the powertrain in the vehicle: 1.5L GTDI models have a 1,000 pound towing capacity 2.0L GTDI models have a 2,000 pound towing capacity 2.5L TiVCT models have a 1,000 pound towing capacity 2.7L GTDI models have a 1,000 pound towing capacity None of the models can tow 2,800 pounds. If yours has the 2.0 liter motor then that would have the highest capacity at 2,000 pounds. You are limited to the capacity of the vehicle since...

  • Replacement Regulator For a Coleman Pop Up Camper
  • I'd be surprised if you have a line that has a pressure rating higher than 11 inch water column as that's the standard for camper applications. If you are looking for a new regulator the MB Sturgis Regulator part # 108221 is a great solution to replace it.

  • Why Does Underbody Panel/Heat Shield Need Removal to Install Curt C12091 Hitch on 2018 Ford Fusion
  • The shield/lower panel you speak of is removed because it completely blocks the area where the hitch would need to sit. The amount of trimming necessary to get that panel to fit around the hitch would be so extensive that there wouldn't be anything left of that panel one you're done. As far as the heat shielding properties of that part, the hitch will serve that purpose, preventing the heat radiated from the muffler from damaging the rear fascia/bumper cover. I've linked to a video showing...

  • Does EcoHitch Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit 2020 Ford Fusion Hybrid
  • That's a good question and yes, the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7239 will fit your 2020 Ford Fusion Hybrid. From time to time manufacturers may not have the most fully updated fits appear on their website but will either send us the updated fits or we will add them as fits if the vehicle does not undergo any change in the body. For example, this EcoHitch fits a Ford Fusion from 2013 and up because it is the same "generation" - the frame hasn't changed. So because of that...

  • Parts Needed To Flat-Tow a 2019 Ford Fusion Hybrid With Roadmaster Tow Bar
  • In order to flat-tow a 2019 Ford Fusion Hybrid you will need a tow bar, base plate kit, safety cables, supplemental braking system, a tail light wiring harness, and a few other smaller components. It sounds like you already have the tow bar and safety cables so I have just attached the other parts which will be compatible with your setup below.

  • Trailer Hitch for 2019 Ford Fusion Titanium Hybrid
  • For trailer hitch fits on your 2019 Ford Fusion, the sub-model only matters when it comes to the Sport models. As long as your Titanium Hybrid isn't the "Sport" edition, the Draw-Tite Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24897 will fit and work perfectly. Just going through the customer reviews on this page it looks like a fellow Titanium owner left a note saying it fit great and went on with ease. I have attached an installation video below that you can follow along with. I'm not sure...

  • Towing Capacity of 2016 Ford Fusion and Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness Fit
  • According to the Ford towing guide, your 2016 Ford Fusion can tow up to 1,000 lbs unless it has the 2.0L I4 EcoBoost, which would give it a 2,000 lb capacity, though I recommend verifying this with your local Ford dealer. To tow you will need a trailer hitch, wiring harness and ball mount, and the best parts for that on your '16 Fusion are: - Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24897 - T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118574 - Draw-Tite Drawbar # 3594 - 1-7/8" Hitch Ball # 19256...

  • Will Yakima DoubleHaul Rooftop Fly Rod Carrier Fit 2018 Ford Fusion with Yakima Roof Rack
  • The Yakima DoubleHaul Rooftop Fly Rod Carrier # Y04087 will fit crossbar spreads ranging from 27" - 108", so since the crossbar spread for a Yakima JetStream roof rack (parts # Y00425, # Y28TR, # Y06110, and # Y06102) for your 2018 Ford Fusion is 32" you're good to go!
