With your plug-in trailer wiring harness, the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56274 on your 2018 Jeep Renegade then you will need to test the running light circuit leaving the converter box. If this wire has power while the vehicle's taillights are off, then you will need to replace the converter box. view full answer...
We offer two 4-pole wiring kits for your 2016 Jeep Renegade, Tekonsha # 118651 and Curt # C56274, both of which work on the Renegade version without any factory-installed trailer wiring. Both install in the same manner, by plugging in at your two taillight connectors and via a 12V power wire that runs from the battery to the converter box.
The converter box takes in separate stop and turn signals and combines them onto one circuit/wire as required by trailers. In these harnesses the yellow... view full answer...
Based on what you are describing it sounds like the issue with your # C56274 is the ground. A weak or bad ground is often the cause when some functions maintain power while others operate normally. Make sure it is secure on a clean, bare metal surface and damage free.
If you check and secure the ground and that does not fix the issue I would go ahead and check for a short. If the 12V power from the battery is contacting the other wires or the frame it could also cause this problem. If... view full answer...
You'll first want to determine if the problem lies on the vehicle side of the equation or the trailer side.
You can easily determine this by using a circuit tester like # PTW2993. Activate the left turn signal on the vehicle and use the tester on the trailer connector pin fed by the yellow wire. If you don't get signal on that pin, check the connection where the taillight converter plugs in line with the driver's side taillight harness. Make sure those connections are plugged in all the... view full answer...
The crossbars of the Malone AirFlow2 roof rack part # MPG216 are compatible with basically all standard ski/snowboard carriers that are out currently. The bar shape of this kit is very standard which allows most racks to fit around the bars and also the bars have channels on the top of the bars which allows the carriers with that style of attachment to fit too.
A really popular snowboard carrier that would fit well on this rack is the Thule SnowPack part # TH7324 which would allow you... view full answer...
What you describe is a classic symptom of a insufficient ground connection. Then there is minimal amperage running through the system, everything works fine but with the brake signal thrown in, more power is running through which is when the problem will rear its head.
Make sure that the trailer connector's ground point which is usually on the trailer tongue is secure and not corroded, and is making direct contact to clean metal on the trailer tongue or frame. Check each lamp to make... view full answer...
Based on the problem you have described I recommend checking the ground connection on the # C56274. When one or more functions remains on like this that is typically the problem. You need to make sure that the ground wire is secure on a clean, bare metal surface. You could also try moving the ground wire to a different location.
If that is not the case, then based on your testing I would go ahead and say it is the converter box. Depending on where it is from and when you received it I... view full answer...
The top strip of the aero blades shouldn't have been damaged so it does sound like overtightening. If you want to prevent that in the future you can be careful not to overtighten and you can use foam blocks like # MPG162 along with the Stacker if the kayaks are causing damage. view full answer...
Hitch rattle can be a common issue and there are some easy ways to relieve the noise. The easiest solution is to bend the exhaust hanger up so that the muffler sets further above the hitch. I have attached a photo showing the exhaust hanger for you.
If bending the hanger does not provide a solution, another option is to try and replace the rubber exhaust isolater with a shorter isolater. The shorter isolater will help raise the tailpipe up futher away from the hitch.

The "n.c" error on the Tekonsha Prodigy RF Wireless Trailer Brake Controller part 90250 can be caused by one or more of the following:
1. Power Module not connected to tow vehicle.
2. Trailer connector disconnected or corroded.
3. Key off or Loss of Battery Power from tow vehicle.
4. Trailer connected with open circuit on the brake line.
5. Loss of trailer brake magnet ground.
6. Loss of RF Communications, signal or interference.
7. Unit not paired or improperly paired.
