The Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, part # 118461 is designed to fit both the 2000 and 2006 Outback Wagon as long as it is not a Sport model.
After connecting the T-One harness you should not show any current on any of the pins unless they are activated like stepping on the brake or using the turn signals. If you have all of the connections secure and the key is off and you are showing current on one of the trailer connector pins, there is probably a short in one of the circuits of... view full answer...
It does sound like there is a short or other problem inside the converter box of Curt trailer wiring harness # C56040. The only fix is to replace the harness with a new one on your 2013 Subaru Outback. I recommend the Tow Ready harness # 118467 because we hear about less issues with them. I have included a link to a video showing an example installation. view full answer...
As far as the harness, based on your recent searches, I believe you are referring to the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Connector # HM11143885 for your 2022 Subaru Outback. I confirmed with my research that the plug is located under the rear trim panel on the passenger side, just inside the rear storage compartment on your 2022 Subaru Outback. I went ahead and attached a video that shows where the plug is located using another 4-way wiring harness. The installer... view full answer...
There are several potential causes for some trailer lighting functions to not work while others do. It could be something as simple as a bit of corrosion on the connector pins (which can appear as a slight whitish or greenish film), a blown fuse or missing relay in the tow vehicle, a short in the wiring somewhere on the vehicle or trailer, or an insufficient ground. You can do a visual inspection of the wiring to check for worn spots or cracks in the insulation that could cause a short.... view full answer...
The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75673 is a confirmed fit for your 2011 Outback Wagon as long as it isn't the sport model. It is very rare for a hitch not to fit and we have never had one that isn't dropped or bent that will not fit in the way shown on your photo. If it is not bent from being dropped, then there is a chance it was a manufacturer defect and should be returned. I've attached the installation details that show drilling is required... view full answer...
I have a couple things you can check that may help you. First check to make sure you have the most up to date version of the Curt Echo app and that your app has permission for Bluetooth active. Also in the app you will need to make sure that a manual override Button # C83HR is not already paired on the app. It will fail to add another button if it thinks there is already another button connected in the app. The red light flash is normal operation. view full answer...
Instead of trying to contact the small terminals try puncturing the wire with a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 that has a needle tip and is designed for this exact thing. Since we haven't installed a controller on your vehicle yet we don't know which color it would be. But I am confident that with the proper tester like the # 3808 you would have no problem finding the right one.
Please email back with which wire it is if you don't mind. view full answer...
There are a couple things you can try if you are having trouble getting the muffler hangers back on your 2017 Subaru Outback with Draw-Tite # 75673. You can try bending the hanger using vice grips or a cheater bar to create more clearance, or replace the rubber isolator with a shorter one, which can be found at an auto parts store.
I've also added a link to a help article which you may find useful. view full answer...
For the Curt Echo # C51180 on your Android Phone you will need to ensure that Bluetooth is on.
You will also want to ensure that the Curt application does have all permissions turned on in the phone settings menu. Go to your phone settings and look for the applications category, then select the Curt app. Under the Curt app you will see a tab for permissions. You will need to allow all the permissions to ensure the app is allowed to use the functions it needs to properly function on your... view full answer...
It really shouldn't be the controller under normal circumstances. The brake controllers like the Brake EVN # TK63VR go into a sleep mode after several minutes of inactivity which would prevent battery drain. Also the small LED light of the controller wouldn't be able to drain a battery in a matter of a couple days. If the controller is staying active that could be caused by shorts on the wiring of the controller to the vehicle or even a short or corrosion on the 7-way connector.

I spoke with Yakima about this and what could have happened is the pads on the brackets of your Yakima MegaWarrior Cargo Basket became worn and now have lost grip. You Probably need to replace the clamps to get a better grip, but unfortunately, they are no longer available.
I've linked to a video review of this clamp for you to look at so you can see what you need. We do have several reports from customers of the Rola Bracket, part # 59506, working very well to secure Yakima baskets to... view full answer...
Since the new wiring harness on your 2007 Subaru Outback has power the issue must be on the trailer side. It does sound like a ground issue. There are numerous grounds on a trailer so there are a few places to check.
Make sure that the vehicle side and trailer side connectors are clean and free of corrosion inside and out. The main connector grounds should be attached to clean and corrosion free bare metal surfaces.
The light grounds should also be attached to clean and corrosion free... view full answer...
Because the converter box used on the # 118461 draws its electrical power directly from the battery, the fact that your trailer tail lights continue to illuminate after the vehicle ignition is shut off indicates that the converter box has shorted out.
This is almost always caused by a short circuit somewhere in the trailer wiring, most likely the running light circuit. Before replacing the converter, you will need to carefully examine the wiring on your trailer, beginning at the trailer... view full answer...
It sounds as though there may be a damaged pin connector in the wiring. I recommend going to the connector on the 2011 Subaru Outback where the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56040 connects. Pull apart this connection and check to ensure that all he pins on the harness are securely in place.
You can also check the voltage coming into the connector to ensure that there is not something wrong with the fuses or wiring on your Outback. view full answer...
Thank you for your purchase of towing components for your 2008 Subaru Outback Wagon including Curt wiring harness # C55370.
The yellow wire on this 4-pole harness carries both turn and brake light signals for the left-side light. Since your harness' left side output is always solid (it does not blink) then this suggests that the harness is damaged.
Please note that we do offer a custom-fit harness for the 2008 Outback Wagon (as long as it is not the Sport edition), part # 118461 from... view full answer...
The easiest way to get a locked Sportrack Cargo carrier unlocked would be to get a replacement key that matches the lock core to unlock the box. Take a look at the lock core on your carrier and look for a lock number, you can then take that lock number and type THKEYN### into our search box with the ### being your lock core number. For example if your lock core is 085 then you can type in # THKEYN085 to get the correct key.

I believe that the Redarc Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR is hooked up correctly to your 2017 Subaru Outback. The blue light flashing when you push the override button is telling you that a trailer is not connected. Also remember that with this brake controller being proportional it will want to see the brake light but also feel the inertia of the vehicle stopping. view full answer...
The tire chains part # PWRS79 that fit the tire size of 225/65-17 that you have on your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon are totally fine to use with AWD vehicles with ABS systems. Like with any winter driving your ABS system is probably going to be working differently in the snow but the chains will give you a ton more traction. AWD is not an issue at all.
I attached an install video for these chains on a similar Outback for you to check out as well. view full answer...
We've had the chance to install brake controllers on 2016 and 2020 Subaru Outback Wagons and we found that for both vehicles the color of the wire for the stoplight circuit was brown. It's not uncommon for some vehicles to randomly get different colored wires from time to time so what you'll need to do is use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 to test all of the wires until you find the circuit that has voltage only when the brakes are applied. view full answer...
It sounds like you're needing to install the Load Resistor Kit # DI34ZR so the Hopkins Wiring Kit # HM11143885 on your 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon is able to read the trailer lighting system properly. What these basically do is pull a little more power for the trailer lights which makes it easier for the vehicle to recognize the trailer is connected. I recommend installing the resistors closer to the trailer connector rather than the lights so you don't have to get a resistor for each individual... view full answer...
