Expert Answers about Nissan Quest
- Installation of Trailier Lighting Connector on a 2009 Nissan Quest
- Your 2009 Nissan Quest requires a powered converter to protect the vehicles sensitive circuitry form possible overload or shorts. There is a gray power connection in the rear of the vehicle near the taillight connections on the drivers side which will supply power to the trailer taillights. This power wire eliminates the amperage draw on the vehicles taillight system.
The best method for installing trailer lighting is to use the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4 Pole Trailer Connector...

- The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13078 is indeed a correct fit for your 2016 Nissan Quest. I have taken a look at the photo you attached and it looks like you are using the wrong set of holes. The trailer hitch will need to move back one set of holes which you can see in the attached photo. For reference, the two holes on the bracket are spaced 3.027" apart on center.
Please let me know if you still run into issues using the other set of bolt holes. I have attached an install video...

- What you are experiencing is pretty common as the weld nuts on vehicles where hitches install get dirty easily which prevents the hitch hardware from threading in properly. I have included a few links on hitch installation tips, cleaning weld nuts, and a video on cleaning weld nuts for you but basically you need to clean the weld nuts and the correct hardware that you have will thread right in. In most cases going with an M12 X 1.25 thread tap is the easiest and most efficient solution.

If you let me know what you will be using the trailer hitch for I can make additional recommendations if need be.
view full answer... - Can the T-One # 118469 be Installed Without Going Through the Hatch on a 2007 Nissan Quest
- You could route the 4-Way connector on the T-One # 118469 through the floor of the trunk on your 2007 Nissan Quest. If you use a rubber grommet like part # A55GB and some sealant like the Loctite RTV 598 # LT37467 it would create a seal so you wouldn't have to worry about having an opening in your floor.
Sometimes there is already an existing grommet in which case you would simply cut a slit in it for the 4-Way.
To keep your 4-Way secure I recommend using the Mounting Bracket # 18144...

These springs though are confirmed to fit your 2005 model Quest and will simply mount inside the rear coil spring suspension.

- I really wish I had a diagram specific to your 2004 Nissan Quest that shows how it would install, but the best I can do is show you a diagram that shows you what circuits the Curt Harness part # C56175 would wire to. You will need to use the included circuit tester to determine the functions of all of the taillight circuits and then wire them accordingly.
I also attached a copy of the installation instructions for this harness for you to check out.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Trailer Hitch That Does Not Line Up to Bolt Holes on Nissan Quest
- The issue you described when trying to install the Draw-Tite Class III Trailer Hitch # 75714 on your Nissan Quest actually isn't terribly uncommon. Because trailer hitch mounting brackets are made from mild steel (which allows them to flex with the vehicle's frame during travel) the hitch can sometimes bend/flex during the shipping process. The bend can be just enough to prevent the brackets from lining up perfectly with existing holes on the vehicle's frame.
There are a few different...

- To install the Curt hitch part # C13572 on your 2000 Nissan Quest you will need to temporarily lower the exhaust. This is a pretty standard step for most trailer hitch installs.

- You are absolutely correct. The Tow Ready Wiring Harness part # 118547 that you referenced installs in the rear portion of your 2013 Nissan Quest. The two harnesses plug in line with your tail light wiring harness of your vehicle and then a power wire gets run up to the positive side of your battery.
I attached installation instructions for this product plus an FAQ article on running the power wire to the battery for you to check out.

- You always want to load the heavier of your 2 bikes first and closet to the vehicle on the Swagman XTC2 TILT Bike Rack # S64671 or any other hitch mounted bike rack. This will keep the weight as close to the vehicle as possible and reduce the leverage effect which can cause some damage to the receiver or bike rack.
view full answer... - Solution for Needing to Power Trailer Wiring Converter Box and 12 Volt Accessory Circuit of 7-Way
- You would not be able to share the power wire of the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56342 for also powering the 12 volt accessory of a 7-way like the part # 37185. But I have a similar solution that would be just as easy.
Instead you'd want to run the double bonded wire part # 10-2-1 (sold by the foot) to the battery of the vehicle and then attach both leads to the battery post and you'll essentially have run "one" wire to power both the converter of the 4-way and the 12 volt...
