  • Installation of the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56225 that fits your 2019 Nissan Frontier (without a factory connector) is very straightforward, but installing a harness on a Nissan does require the use of relays, which are included with this kit.

  • I reached out to a representative of Kat's Heaters who said that all the needed parts to install the Kat's Heaters Thermostatically Controlled Circulating Tank Heater # KH13080 on your 2008 Nissan Frontier are included.

  • Can Factory Tow Package of 2017 Nissan Frontier Be Completely Bypassed
  • We don't offer a plug and play option for a 2017 Nissan Frontier, but you could indeed bypass the factory tow package of your 2017 Nissan Frontier by hardwiring in a 7-way trailer connector. You'd begin by installing a 4 pole trailer connector, like part # C59496. For a fully functional 7-way trailer connector, you'd need the # ETBC7 brake controller/7-way trailer connector installation kit.

  • No Trailer Connected Message Shown After Brake Controller Installation
  • The no trailer connected error on most brake controllers simple means the controller does not sense resistance on the brake output circuit. This is usually caused by a short or improper wiring. I recommend checking the vehicle side connector to make sure everything is working correctly with the override. If you don't get signal sent to brake output pin then you know the issue is on the vehicle. If you do then move to the trailer. You can probe the blue wire directly behind the controller...

  • SuperSprings Slide Forward on Leaf Spring Pack
  • It sounds like the hold down clamp (see photo) has loosened which has then allowed the SuperSprings Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit part # SSA1MTKT to shift forward on your 2015 Nissan Frontier. In order to fix this you will want to loosen the two nuts at the bottom of the clamp and then shift the spring back into position while tightening the nuts back down. This should keep the spring in place but if it does not please let me know and I would be happy to let you know what options...

  • What Holds the Sides of Roll Up Tonneau Covers to the Bed Rails of a Truck
  • The sides of roll up tonneau covers like the part # 834532006823 that you referenced are typically sealed to the truck bed rails with Velcro. But what mainly keeps the sides of the cover down is the amount of tension in the cover that is created between the front mount of the cover and the latching system at the rear of the truck bed. The cover is so taut that the sides would not lift up once the cover is latched properly.

  • Replacing a 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 2008 Nissan Frontier
  • You will need to use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 if needed to test the wires on your 2008 Nissan Frontier to determine the function of each wire. Make sure that you label the wires somehow to make installation and troubleshooting easier. Once you have determined the functions of all of the wires you will connect them to the back of the Hopkins 7-Way trailer connector, # HM48470, in the following way: Center pole = reverse lights 1 o'clock position = running lights 3 o'clock position...

  • How to Install a Brake Controller on a 2002 Nissan Frontier
  • Since your 2002 Nissan Frontier did not come with a factory 7-Way you will need to hardwire in a brake controller such as the P2 # 90885. You will just need to use an installation kit # 5506. To install the controller, you will need to attach the white brake controller wire to the negative battery terminal.

  • Installing Thule TracRac on 2003 Nissan Frontier w/ Drop-In Bed Liner
  • The Thule TracRac # TH14750 will mount to your truck with a drop-in bed liner, but for best results, the bed liner should be trimmed away where the ladder rack attaches to the bed floor and the side of the bed so the rack's bolted directly to metal. If the notching the bed floor isn't feasible, and least have the bracket attached to the side wall touching directly to the metal bed side. Having the bed liner sandwiched in between will cause the ladder rack to loosen over time.

  • Missing Relay for Trailer Running Light Circuit on a 2015 Nissan Frontier
  • While it is uncommon for the 2015 Nissan Frontier to be missing that relay, it is still a possibility that the blue fuse in the cab fuse panel is missing or blown. The Curt Relay Kit # C57000 includes 2 of these blue relays and one brown relay. You should only need the one relay if everything else is working. There is just the one running light relay for all of the running lights.

  • Installing Derale Transmission Cooler to Replace OEM Cooler on 2007 Nissan Frontier SE
  • The Derale transmission coolers we sell are designed more as a supplemental cooler that is meant to augment the factory transmission cooler portion of the radiator, not replace it entirely. If you are experiencing the common problem with the radiator leaking causing the engine coolant contaminating the transmission fluid, your best bet really would be to have the original radiator replaced. I did a Google search using the keywords Nissan Radiator Problem and found that Nissan has extended...

  • How Does a Transmission Cooler Install on a 2007 Nissan Frontier
  • On a transmission cooler like # D12902 or any for a 2007 Nissan Frontier, the new cooler is a supplemental unit. The fluid will flow from the transmission, to the factory cooler in the radiator, out of the radiator, into the new cooler, then back to the transmission. In some cases you can use a cooler to bypass the factory cooler but you would have to block off the factory inlet/outlet cooler ports on the radiator. Also a larger and more efficient cooler should be used. I have included...
