Expert Answers about Suzuki Vitara


  • How Does the Curt Breakaway Battery Charger C52025 Work
  • The Curt Breakaway Battery Charger part # C52025 only charges the breakaway battery while the trailer is plugged into the vehicle and the vehicle's battery charge line circuit is active (it could be constant on or keyed with the ignition). Once the trailer is connected and the circuit is active, the charger will provide a trickle charge to the breakaway battery. There is a shutoff feature built-in to prevent overcharging. The breakaway battery should not have to be hooked up for the charger...

  • Can Software On Blue Ox Patriot P2 BRK2016 Be Upgraded To The Patriot BLU37TR Software?
  • You can send in your Blue Ox Patriot 2 BRK2016 to have the software upgraded, but this will still not make it the same as the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR as it will not have a new internal brake pressure sensor. This sensor detects pressure on the brake pedal and if it detects pressure caused by the seat being too close or the unit being tilted. This will also monitor pressure on the brake pedal while you are on the road so if you hit a large bump and the unit gets jarred causing it to apply...

  • Ground Clearance with a Trailer Hitch Installed on a 2002 Suzuki Vitara JLX
  • Basically, all of the hitches for the 2002 Suzuki Vitara will have the receiver directly below the rear fascia on the vehicle. The Class I hitches like # 60942 will have a little more ground clearance because the receiver is smaller. However you will be very limited in accessories and towing capacity with Class I hitches. I have included a diagram that shows the position of the Class III Draw-Tite hitch # 41537 relative to the rear fascia. Since the outside of a Class III receiver is 2-1/2...

  • Roadmaster # 1012-1 Base Plate Installation on 1999 Suzuki Vitara
  • As the instructions for the Roadmaster # 1012-1 base plates aren't very detailed, I've contacted my contact in the Engineering department at Roadmaster who was able to find a photo for you. The photo I've provided shows the front suspension sub frame bolts on the driver's and passenger side. The photos aren't the clearest, but they're clear enough to help you locate the bolts.

  • Hitch-Mount Wheelchair Carrier for Use on 2003 Suzuki Vitara
  • Your 2003 Suzuki Vitara can be equipped with either of two different classes of hitch, either a light-duty 1-1/4-inch Class I hitch or a heavier-duty Class III hitch that has a 2-inch receiver, such as # C13517. Please refer to the link provided. If your Vitara has a Class I hitch it will not have the capacity needed to transport a 200-lb powered wheelchair on a hitch carrier.

  • Where to Mount a P3 Trailer Brake Controller on a 2001 Suzuki Grand Vitara
  • After looking at some interior pictures of a 2001 Suzuki Vitara I think the best place to install a P3 brake controller, # 90195, would be in that small pocket in front of the gear selector. The controller will have to be pointed nose up but you should be able to mount that bracket near the top forward side of that pocket and get the controller to fit. The P3 can be tilted. The newest models can be mounted a full 360 degrees in the direction of travel, see instructions link.

  • Cleaning the Weld Nuts to Install a Trailer Hitch On a 2004 Suzuki Vitara
  • The bolts that come with the Curt # C13517 will be 12mm. With your Suzuki Vitara being a 2004, the factory weld nuts can get kind of caked with road grime and debris. Before getting the hitch bolted up, it is a good idea to soak the 4 nuts with WD-40 and then give them a good scrub with a nylon tube brush, like the Fastenal # 814092. In more severe cases, a thread chaser will need to be used to clear the gunk out, but generally the tube brush gets the job done.

The connector you would be looking for is located on the inside of the driver side tire jack compartment. It is taped to the vehicle wiring harness just forward of the jack compartment.

  • Recommended Hitch And Carrier to Carry Wheelchair with 2003 Suzuki Grand Vitara
  • To carry a wheelchair on your Grand Vitara, you'll first need a trailer hitch. I'd recommend the Curt Class III, part # C13517. To carry the wheelchair, I'd recommend the Flint Hill Goods # FHG77ZR. The carrier is capable of folding up flat against the rear of the vehicle when the wheelchair is removed, but the spare tire on your vehicle would probably prevent it from folding. Regardless of that, the carrier is attractively priced and would work well for you. The carrier has a 500 lb capacity...
