- Troubleshooting Blown Fuses After Installing Wiring Harness in 2013 Honda Pilot EX-L
- It sounds like your wiring harness is either seeing an excessive power draw from the trailer lights or there is a short in the trailer's wiring causing the fuses to blow. I suggest you disconnect the trailer from the vehicle. This will let you test the 7-way with a circuit tester and test the trailer lights directly by applying a 12V power source to the trailer plug's contacts. Please note that this harness can handle up to 4.2-amps per stop/turn circuit. If you can determine the current...

If all that checks out then go back to check the white ground wire to ensure it is bare metal to metal as even paint can cause...

- Since the only thing that isn't working for your iRV35 Stereo is the radio function but you're still getting static, it leads me to believe that the antenna on your Rockwood got damaged in the storm you had.
Try finding where the stereo is connected to the antenna and trace all of that wiring for damage as well as the antenna itself and then replace parts as necessary.

- Trailer wiring harness # 118265 is a fit for all styles of the 2015 Honda Pilot so we just have to figure out what exactly has taken place to render the harness inoperable.
You will need to make sure all of the included fuses and relays are installed and that none are blown. This includes the in-line fuses that are part of the harness. If this is a brand new wiring harness on a brand new vehicle then a blown fuse or relay is likely the problem. Consult the vehicle owners manual for all...

- Some tow package wiring harnesses on vehicles can overcome ground issues better than others. Although the trailer works with other vehicles, since some vehicles are more sensitive about ground issues, a ground problem on your trailer could still be causing the problem you are experiencing.
Ground problems normally show up when there is more draw on a system such as when you have the running lights on and then use another function like a turn signal or brake light.
Make sure that the...

- I agree that it sounds like you have a ground issue. Ground problems often present themselves through strange wiring issues. Having a ground issue may not cause all of the trailer lights not to work. It is not uncommon for only one side of the trailer lights to not work, or the lights to dim when the blinker is used, when there is a ground issue.
When stripped back, a black ground wire would more likely indicated that it has somehow been fried, not corroded. Corrosion usually presents...

- You did quite a bit of troubleshooting and homework on this so I commend you for that! Since it's not the relays, the fuses, or the trailer wiring that basically leaves the converter box of the wiring kit. Which you can test that with a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 by checking for voltage when the turn signals are on going into the box and then check to see if they are making it to the output side.
If there's none making it to output side the box is bad and would need to be replaced...

- The Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 that you have is a proportional controller which means it needs to sense deceleration for it to start applying trailer brakes. If you apply the vehicle brakes while at a stop the controller can tell you aren't moving so it doesn't apply the brakes. Basically when you apply the brakes in the vehicle that tells the Echo that it needs to start looking for deceleration and to apply a proportional amount of braking on the trailer brakes.

- The EC code on your Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 41,800 Btu - Black # LSB44FR means the pilot light tried to ignite but could not due to low gas pressure.
If the control panel is displaying error codes then it is working and need not be replaced. The panel itself is not a replaceable part as is.
The unit needs an 11 inch water column, 11"WC, to ignite. I recommend getting a licensed technician to come look at it first.

First, check that all of the relays are inserted properly in the harness and the fuse you installed in the engine compartment is still okay. You can also unplug the relays and connectors to inspect the condition of the contacts, looking for any dirt, potential corrosion from moisture or any other visible condition that could explain the non-functioning stop/turn lights.

- If the converter box of the # 118265 has voltage to the input side but nothing on the output side that would indicate that the box has shorted out and would need to be replaced. It would be nice if they offered just the converter boxes but since they do not you'd need a whole new kit.

- The connector that you have to separate to install the Tekonsha kit part # 118491 on your 2010 Honda Pilot can be a little bit difficult. Especially if it's colder out.

- I am glad to hear the hitch installation went smoothly, but sorry to hear you are unhappy with the adapter. When using adapters, the play you are experiencing is a common problem. When using accessories in a trailer hitch, sometimes they are a perfect fit, sometimes they are a little loose and other times they are so tight that you must file the accessory down a bit.
Because, there is not always a perfect fit, there are anti-rattle devices made. You may have noticed that your Yakima bike...

If you check out the attached install instructions link that's on this page you'll see the two areas that you'll need to check as there are several fuses and relays it uses. One area is under the hood and the other is in the storage compartment at the rear of the vehicle.
