Expert Answers about Toyota Highlander


  • Parts to Adapt 4-Pole on Vehicle to 7-way Trailer Connector On Boat Trailer With Surge Coupler
  • Assuming the boat trailer has a 7-way trailer connector on it, you're certainly on the right track. You won't need the entire # ETBC7 kit, however. You'll just need the # 37185 adapter. As you mentioned, you'd ground the white wire to the vehicle frame or chassis and tap the yellow wire into the vehicle's reverse lamp circuit, plug the adapter into the existing 4-pole and then you'll be good to go.

  • Recommended Platform Rack System without Crossbars for 2019 Toyota Highlander XLE
  • For a low profile platform style rack similar to a Rhino Rack Backbone System, the only available option is the Yakima Roof Rack and Platform System that uses parts # Y05045, # Y53TR, # Y05042-2, # Y00242. This kit combines the Yakima Lock N Load Platform # Y05045 and Yakima Skyline towers # Y53TR to give you the platform without a crossbar for the low profile setup you're looking for. The additional parts are for the footpack and adapters to allow you to mount the towers to your 2019...

  • Highest Capacity Trailer Hitch Available for 2018 Toyota Highlander
  • Although there are hitches we offer for the 2018 Highlander with towing capacities up to 6000 lbs like the etrailer brand # e98844 Class 3 hitch you'd looked at, the capacity of the vehicle itself maxes out at 5000 lbs. Some models have a lower towing capacity, as little as 1500 lbs for the 2.7L engine. The 3.5L FWD or AWD models have a 5000 lb towing capacity. Even though the hitch might have a capacity higher than the capacity of the vehicle itself, that capacity will always be limited...

  • Parts Needed to Install a 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 2011 Toyota Highlander
  • To add a 7-Way trailer connector to your 2011 Toyota Highlander, you will want to start with adding the Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, # 118449, that you have referenced, if the vehicle does not already have a 4-Way connector. In order to have the 4-Way underneath the vehicle, you will need to find a grommet in the bottom of the cargo area, route the plug through it and out to the rear of the vehicle. Make sure to seal up any holes that you may have had to make to route the harness. With...

  • Replacement Converter Boxes For Custom Trailer Wiring Harnesses
  • The first thing I would do is check your wiring installation as the majority of the time, malfunctions occur as a result of improper wiring rather than converter box failure. If you would like to tell me the problem you are having then I would be glad to help. Unfortunately, as the converter box and provided wiring harness are the majority of the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56217 kit. We do not sell the individual converter box as a replacement part. If we did, it would...

  • What Adapter do I Need to Convert My 4-Way to a 7-Way on My 2022 Toyota Highlander?
  • Yes! The part you are looking for is the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat # ETBC7. This will convert your current 4-way into a 7-way on your 2022 Toyota Highlander. To add a brake controller, I recommend the Tekonsha Voyager # 39510 or the Curt Echo # C51180. Both of these controllers are proportional controllers which means that the controller activates the trailer brakes in proportion to your vehicle's braking action. The Voyager is more...

  • Correct Replacment 4-Pin Trailer Connector for a 2021 Toyota Highlander
  • It does sound like there is an issue with the connector itself, so replacing it with the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package # TK74FR is a great choice. This is a direct replacement to your OEM connector so it'll just plug right up and fit in place of your old one. If for some reason you can't get the new connector into the spot of the old one, you could always just add one with # 18144 and bypass it alltogether.

  • Is Taillight Converter Needed to Install Trailer Wiring Harness on 2021 Toyota Highlander
  • If your Highlander doesn't have the factory tow package, you'll need the two piece trailer wiring harness assembly like the # TK99FR from Tekonsha. The wiring assembly includes both the taillight converter and the 4 pole trailer wiring harness. Both portions of the assembly are necessary if the vehicle wasn't equipped with the tow package. The Curt # C99FR Class III hitch you'd looked at would be a great choice, you'll also need a ball mount like # D-4 and a trailer ball like # 19260 for...

  • Recommended Roof Rack for 2020 Toyota Highlander
  • The Yakima Roof Rack Kit that uses parts # Y00422, # Y06132, # Y28TR and # Y06153 is a confirmed fit for your 2020 Toyota Highlander with a naked roof. This kit uses aerodynamic Yakima CoreBars to help reduce wind noise and this rack will allow you to carry bike racks or a roof cargo basket like the Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket # Y07139. Since this roof rack kit does not come with locks included I recommend adding some with part # Y07204, which comes with 4 lock cores and keys. This...

  • Parts Needed to Install a 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 2023 Toyota Highlander Hybrid
  • I have exactly what you need to complete the wiring on your 2023 Toyota Highlander Hybrid! I'm not sure why the dealership would say adding a 7-Way would void the hitch warranty since they are completely different parts that aren't even connected to each other. Since you already have the 4-Way connector you just need the 7-Way Upgrade Kit # ETBC7L and then you can plug in a Curt Echo wireless brake controller like the traditional Plug-In # C51180 or the In-Line # C79DR. I prefer the In-Line...

  • Parts Needed For Installing 4-Way Flat & 7-Way Blade Connectors On a 2023 Toyota Highlander
  • If your 2023 Toyota Highlander came with the factory 4-way flat you will want to use the 7-Way Kit # ETBC7 to convert your Highlander and have both a 4-way flat and 7-way blade connector. This kit includes the wiring and circuit breakers needed to add the charge line as well as a Brake Controller # RED52VR. The Mounting Panel # 331-TPSI-002 will allow you to place the controller in one of the factory removable switch panels on your Highlander. If you do not have any tow wiring on your...

  • How to Determine if a 2018 Toyota Highlander has a Tow Package
  • To send me your picture you can just reply to me here. To me that connector you found sounds like where you need to plug a converter in which would mean you don't have the tow package. Look at the picture I've attached. If it looks like this will plug into the connector you found then that's what it is. It shouldn't be a connector for a brake controller because your 2018 Toyota Highlander doesn't have a custom adapter to install a controller. If this is what you need then I recommend...

  • Propane Adapter Fittings and Hoses for Tankless Water Heater
  • The Propane Hose - 1/2" Female SAE Swivel x 3/8" Male NPT - 3' # 37207-31445 I found on your invoice will fit on a male 1/2 inch fitting and a 3/8 inch female NPT fitting. It sounds like you may simply need the MB Sturgis Propane Hose Assembly - 1/2" Female Flare Swivel x 3/8" MPT - 3'# 100383-36-MBS for the different 1/2 inch fitting. I don't know what is on your tankless water heater because we don't carry any, but we do have many adapters. I've linked the page to those adapters to assist.

  • When it comes to installing trailer wiring on your 2022 Toyota Highlander Hybrid The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # TK99FR will give you the 4 flat option. This wiring plugs behind the trim panel near the driver's side rear seat belt bracket. You will have to pull back the side trim panel to access the harness.

  • Recommended Solution to Add 7 Way Trailer Wiring Harness to 2013 Toyota Highlander
  • In order to add a 7 way wiring harness to your 2013 Toyota Highlander you'll want to use the # ETBC7 (if your brake controller is wired) or the # ETBC7L (if you're using a wireless brake controller); the difference will be that with a wireless brake controller you won't need to run the brake controller output line into the cab of the vehicle. If you haven't already chosen a brake controller I do recommend going the wireless route because of the ease of installation; I recommend using the...

  • Parts Needed to Add 7 Way Connector and Brake Controller to 2012 Toyota Highlander
  • We can absolutely help you locate the parts you're looking for. Even though you have a factory 4 way trailer connector, you will not have a factory brake controller installation plug available in the cabin of your 2012 Toyota Highlander, so any brake controller that is not wireless would need to be hard wired into the vehicle. For this reason I recommend using the # ETBC7L, which is a 7 way plug designed for use with wireless brake controllers; if you want a wired controller you'll need...

  • Recommended Wiring Harness For A 2017 Toyota Highlander
