Installation

This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's factory tow package wiring harness, which is located behind the access cover at the center of your rear bumper.


Once installation is complete, the 7-way connector will be stowed beneath your vehicle, near the trailer hitch. A mounting bracket (sold separately) is recommended to keep the connector secure.


It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 7-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.

All the wiring was already in the vehicle. They first sold me the wrong harness. After inspection I called and returned it for full credit and received the correct one and installed it. Its works great and the dealer had no idea how to wire the car.

Works great! dealer contractor wanted $850 to install a brake controller. E-trailer around $350



by:

Product was received long before the scheduled delivery date. Their videos made installation a breeze. I did not have to lift my vehicle nor fully drop the exhaust for install. I did however have to use a step bit to make the access larger which was no big deal. Solid purchase.



by:

Great product and informative people. Product reviews and installation videos were very helpful.The included installation instructions were very basic and could have been a bit more detailed but if you watch the videos, it all makes sense and it makes for a an easy installation.

Yes, the hitch and the wiring harness all worked out well. Needed a friend to install the hitch. Everything was included and bolted up with no problems. Wiring harness plugged in to factory wiring.

Work well for my 2017 Arcadia which is a newly designed model. I was not sure if this item would be an exact "plug in" for my application considering my vehicle did not come with a factory trailer package. etrailer did some checking with the manufacturer to verify it would be and easy plug in. It did plug in and worked perfectly.



by:

etrailer has excellent customer service personnel, who are knowledgeable, very friendly and polite. They have timely communications about your order, shipment and delivery.

The quality of the products that I have purchased from them has always been very good.

The instruction videos are thorough and will safe you many installation problems. I just installed a hidden trailer hitch on my 2020 GMC Acadia Denali without problems by using the video as my guide.



by:

Everything fit together perfectly. Make sure you order s mounting bracket for your connector. I forgot and wished I had at the time of ordering. Hardest part was removing the original dust covers off of car wiring harness.



by:
2017 Cadillac XT5

Watch video on removal of dust covers one of them is real tricky on Cadillac ZT5. My on concern about the hitch is the 7 way plug is round and the bracket is oval so they don't work together. All in all nice setup!



by:

This product was a perfect fit for my 2019 Acadia. The instructions and even video were spot on. I couldn't ask for a better experience. Etrailer has exceeded all my expectations as an online resource. I am a mechanic and business owner and I did not expect this kind of support with video instruction from an online retailer. I will continue to use and promote etrailer to all my friends, family, and customers.

Thanks etrailer for making my life easier.

  • Plug and Play Wiring Kit for a 2018 GMC Acadia
    Are you looking for a 4-way or 7-way connector to tow a trailer? We actually have both that are plug and play that fit your 2018 GMC Acadia. If so the 4-way I recommend is part # 118720 and the 7-way is part # 118276. I've linked videos of them both installed onto a 2017 Acadia which uses the same parts. If you're actually looking for wiring so you can tow your Acadia behind a motorhome then we don't have a plug and play at this time. The easiest lighting kits to install are magnetic...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness for a 2017 GMC Acadia
    All of the 2017 GMC Acadia's came with the factory tow package wiring. In order to add a trailer connector to the vehicle you would want to use part # 118720 for a 4-way or part # 118276 for a 7-way. These custom fit connectors will plug into your factory wiring harness which is located behind the access cover at the center of your rear bumper. In order to mount the connector to a hitch you will first need to use part # 18140 and then part # 18144 for the 4-way connector or part # 18138...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2020 GMC Acadia
    We have everything that you need to start towing with your 2020 GMC Acadia! I recommend using the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 76023 because it mounts behind the rear bumper and has a very clean look with the lower panel removed. Then for wiring I recommend pairing the T-One # 118276 with the Hopkins # HM40975 which gives you a plug and play wiring kit with both 4-Way and 7-Way connectors. I have linked installation videos of the trailer hitch and wiring on a 2019 Acadia that you can reference. To...

  • Differences Between Available Hitches for 2020 GMC Acadia
    The primary difference between the two is the height of the receiver tube once the hitch is installed. Both hitches use a crossbar that tucks up behind the bumper fascia for a clean looking installation but the Draw-Tite # 76023 will sit higher up on the vehicle and extend through the bumper fascia as shown in the provided comparison photo. This provides for improved clearance which could come in handy if you ever back out of steep driveways. For the trailer wiring harness, use part #...

    A great option for your 2020 GMC Acadia is the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76023. It's sleek look blends-in nicely and looks like it came with your Acadia stock when you bought it. Included is a customer's installed hitch as an example. This hitch is powder coated for superior corrosion resistance and the 2" receiver can accommodate a variety of hitch accessories like steps # BBS-1102 and bike racks # KU74FR just list a few.

  • Will 7-Way 118276 Interfere With Panel on 2019 GMC Acadia With Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch 76023
    That's a really good question, and you will be able to re-install the panel on your 2019 GMC Acadia without interference with the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 7-Way Trailer Connector # 118276 mounted to the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76023. I have added a photo from our installation video of the harness on a '19 Acadia with the Draw-Tite hitch, and as you can see, the 7-way will be back behind where the panel re-installs, you just want to make sure the...

    I do have an option to obtain both a 4 and 7-way trailer connector on a 2019 Chevrolet Blazer but all of the plug-in-play harnesses like the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 118276 only come with either a 4-way or 7-way, not both. However, all you need to do to obtain both is purchase one of the plug-in-play 7-way trailer wiring harnesses and then replace the plug on it with the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket part # HM40975. In regards to brake assist, there will be no additional...

  • What Vehicle Does Draw-Tite Class III 76023 Hitch Fit
    The Draw-Tite Class III hitch you'd looked at, part # 76023 fits the 2017 - 2019 GMC Acadia, the 2020 - 2021 GMC Acadia AT4, and the 2019-2021 Chevy Blazer. The hitch will work perfectly on your Blazer. If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll need a few other items to complete your towing system. You'll need a trailer wiring harness like # 118720 for a 4-pole connector or # 118276 for a 7-way trailer connector. You'll also need a # 2923 ball mount and # 19261 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845...

  • How To Tell If a 2018 GMC Acadia Has the Factory Tow Package
    If you do not already have a trailer hitch and trailer wiring harness mounted on the rear of the vehicle then it's safe to say you don't have a factory tow package. The dealer however can confirm this using the VIN. That said, it's not necessary, just check the back of the vehicle. If you don't have a factory tow package and you need to add parts to tow a trailer then we have you covered. For the trailer hitch, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13293 which offers a bolt-on...

  • How to Remove Access Panel and Install a Brake Controller on a 2018 GMC Acadia
    Your 2018 GMC Acadia actually has blunt cut wires for you to splice in a brake controller like the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195. The last Acadia to use the Adapter # 3026-P that you referenced was the 2017 Limited which was the same as the 2016 model year. The 2017 New Body and newer have the blunt cut wires up under the dash. I took a look at the online version of the owner's manual for your 2018 Acadia and on page 278 it says that the blunt cut wires can be found above the parking brake...

    The best hitch for your 2023 GMC Acadia is going to be the etrailer Hitch item # e36AR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your GMC with included hardware. I really like the etrailer hitch because it installs behind your rear bumper cover and can be completely hidden when you are not towing. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 5,000 lbs towing capacity, and a 750 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked a couple of pictures below along with an installation video...

    To start with, the Tekonsha # 118276 will definitely fit your 2022 GMC Acadia even with it not having the factory towing package. There is a cluster of wiring under/behind your rear bumper that this will plug right into, making the install quick and easy.

    The main difference between the two is that the Draw-Tite Class III, part # 76023 is mostly concealed behind the bumper, more like the OEM hitch would be, and the Curt # C13293 installs so that the receiver tube is right under the rear bumper fascia. Because of this, the Draw-Tite offers a better appearance as well as a couple of inches of additional ground clearance.

The hitch I recommend for your 2018 Cadillac XT5 is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e62AR. I like this hitch above the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13285 because the Draw-Tite has slightly better ground clearance than the Curt, which is important to keep things like accessories from hitting the ground.

You have the option of the 4-Way Harness # 118720 or 7-Way Harness # 118276. Both will connect to the factory connectors on your XT5.

The Draw-Tite is designed to fit as the factory receiver would and hides behind the removable fascia panel.
