Installation
This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side interior trim panels in your rear cargo area.
Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your cargo area.
It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.
A tail light converter is built into this T-connector. Because most trailers run on a two-wire system - wherein the brake and turn signals are carried on one wire - the separate brake and turn signals from your vehicle's three-wire system need to be combined so they are compatible with the wiring system of the trailer. This converter combines the brake and turn signal functions of your automobile so that they run on one wire to properly activate your trailer's tail lights. Note: This will not affect how the tail lights on your vehicle operate.
Curt builds each tail light converter using surface-mount technology (SMT). This method of construction involves soldering electronic components directly to the surface of a printed circuit board. SMT eliminates the need for leads, which are used in older through-hole technology. The result is a circuit board that is smaller yet provides more routing area and that offers superior performance, reliability and durability.
Circuit boards constructed using SMT have been shown to perform better under rough conditions with excessive vibration than those made using the through-hole method. And where would vibration be more likely to occur than in towing applications? Curt converters also produce less heat, leading to increased durability and longer life. In addition, lower levels of resistance ensure better performance, especially for parts that operate at higher frequencies.
Each Curt circuit board is made using high-quality components that are pieced together in the most technologically savvy fashion, leading to greater predictability and reliability in functioning.

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly into existing wiring - no cutting, splicing or tapping required. Converter is made using SMT to ensure superior performance.The installation of the class 3 hitch, wiring harness and 4 to 7 pole connector on my 09 murano went 100% as per instructions.
your products are 100% also, I would recommend your products to anyone that wants to install themselves.
I already don’t remember everything, but at least one or two holes were misplaced. As a result I couldn’t install it by myself and spent additional $200 for a professional installation…
This is THE place to get your hitch !! The hitch fit perfectly , the wiring fit perfectly , the service is fantastic !! I'll ALWAYS buy my hitches and related items here. The hitch arrived so fast I wasn't ready for it. I thought it would take a week to get it , but it arrived in 2days !!!! I would not go anywhere else !! Price is great with free shipping on orders over 99.00 !!!!h Here's a pic of my hideaway hitch.
This was the easiest item I have ever installed on anything. The video was spot on and very useful! I will always recommend e trailer to anyone looking to add a hitch or anything e trailer sells!
I was a little worried at first doing the install by my self, but etrailer was very helpful with their installation video.
curt t connector delivered but the hitch that I ordered has not yet
Great product, easy to install, plug and play design. I will definitely order from e-trailer if I need any future trailer components.
I had a problem with my current harness assembly. I couldn't figure out why I could only get trailer lights on when running my headlights and nothing else. After a lot of testing on the trailer, which I figured was always a ground issue. I went out and bought a DC voltage tester (looks like a big pen that lights up when voltage is applied). It really helped me figure out where it was getting voltage and where it wasn't. It turned out that my harness module (the black box where all the wires connect to). I could tell that I had voltage going to the module but nothing coming out for turn signals or brakes. I looked closer at the module and discovered a crack in it. Not sure how or when it happened because I bought this vehicle about a year ago and the Curt towing assembly was already installed. I looked up how to replace this assembly on the internet and found a video on replacement. It looked very simple so I ordered it.
The website was easy to follow and told me exactly which part would be the right one for my vehicle. The pictures made it clear that this was the right part.
Ordering was simple. I received emails letting me know the part had shipped, and I received it in 2 days. The package came with everything I needed. Directions were easy to follow. I had everything done in a little over an hour (getting the covers off took more time than installation)
I would buy from etrailer again.

Still working great
Hi Patrick. The Curt T-Connector wiring harness arrived on time a couple of weeks ago as you promised. I installed in just yesterday as I have been busy on other things.
I reviewed the Video and gathered my tools. From that point, I was done in 40 minutes!! It was very easy as you had promised. Even for me, a 72-year old with almost no memory and who moves no faster than a slow snail. The most difficult part was removing and reinstalling the Murano panels without damaging them or the clips/snaps. All done nice and tidy and I used my trailer today without a hitch (pun intended).
Thanks for a great product with really easy to follow instructions.

Working better than expected. I like the harness and would recommend it to anyone
I purchased a hitch receiver and wiring harness. The customer service was the best I have ever received from any online retailer. I received order progress emails and received my order sooner than expected. Everything was a perfect fit. I ordered the wiring harness with connectors and highly recommend that option. I have the skills and background to splice them in but the connectors saved so much time.

I still wish every online or brick and mortar retailer could provide the great customer service etrailer does. I have purchased two hitches and two vehicle specific wiring harnesses and after a year of use everything continues to perform perfectly. In one case I even got a call from them immediate after ordering to discuss the ball I ed. They indicated that there could be a compatibility issue and recommended ant other that would be a better fit and it cost less as well.
Harness wired in to my '06 Murano without splicing any wires, however both turn signal wires were routed to the wrong spot in the harness. We had to re-splice each end of the harness to get the signals to work, but otherwise installation was relatively easy.

This item fits a 2005 Murano, but not a 2006. The part you need instead is Item # C49KR.

This is the second product I have purchased from etrailer in the past 12 months. The wiring harness was exactly as described and super easy to install. It is all just plug and go once you get to your vehicle wiring behind the taillight panels. However, the best thing about etrailer is their videos! They are 100% spot on, step-by-step, easy to follow with super clear instructions. I have installed a hitch and a wiring harness in my 2014 Nissan Murano with no problems at all!
I have never written a review, until today. Purchased the Hidden Hitch and the Curt wiring kit for 2014 Murano (everything essentially the same as 2012/13 hitch install and wiring just like 2005 video). Had the products at my home in 5 days - so far so good and much appreciated. Watched the video of installing the hitch on the e trailer site a few times before and after purchase and thought "That looks easy, I can do that." Now I am 50 something female who is handy with tools, but not car stuff. The videos gave me the confidence, and it really was that easy to install the hitch, 1 hour, by myself, no lift. Now the wiring kit, well, it is in fact easy to understand (again watch the video on e trailer), but after dismantling the parts in the interior to get to the wiring and getting everything back together is definitely not my specialty. The wiring is simple though, the kit has absolutely everything you need for parts. Wiring took minutes, the tearing apart and reassembling the interior took 1 hour 50 minutes and some mild cussing. Definitely 5 stars for products and ease of installation, low marks for my ability to rip a car apart. Thank you e trailer for your videos, you saved me $150.00 in installation fees.
The team and selection at etrailer.com is excellent and the Draw-Tite Draw-Tite Ball Mount Trailer Hitch Ball Mount purchased installed easily and the tech support team answered my questions in a timely manner and provided the support needed. I will certainly search their inventory for my future trailer needs.
I gave this a score of excellence.
It was so easy to install.
It only took me about 30 minutes.
This is the ONLY way to do trailer lights. The harness plugs into the factory harness perfectly. The converter plugs into an existing wire in the spare tore area. No need to run a power wire up to the fuse panel, no holes to drill. Even used an existing screw for the ground. Great price and quick shipping from etrailer.com. Sorry but no photo as it is all concealed behind trim panels.
Video was a huge help, thanks.
One clip separated from panel but I reglued it. Used a very fine tooth hack saw blade to cut two 1/4 inch long slots, and then bent up resultant tab to get 4x1 plug through body. Tapped tap back down and cover with grease as rust preventative. Cut hole in rubber plug with X-Acto knife to seal around harness and then used RTV sealant.
Note: if you are testing the plug with a volt meter after installation, you'll be surprised to see +12V at the yellow, green and brown wires. eTrailer said this is OK. It worked fine when connected to a trailer.
Pros: Easy plug-in installation, including 12 volt source in rear of vehicle. No wire cutting or splicing required.
Cons: Tail light circuit was faulty and did not function in spite of Curt's statement that all lighting controllers are factory tested. eTrailer replaced the faulty product under warranty. Replacement product works perfectly. Fuse supplied by Curt did not fit in my vehicle.
This harness is pretty easy to install. There are a couple of different installation video's from etrailer on how to install this (slightly different products, but the installation is the same). As I was taking my vehicle apart, I thought it was going to be very challenging to put it back together. It was even easier than I expected. It took me an hour or so, taking my time. I also recommend you take note of where the opened areas to the spare tire are. I wanted to make sure that I could access the inline fuse, so I wanted that accessible from the spare tire compartment without having to take the rear panel off. GREAT videos on how to do all of this. Thanks eTrailer!
2014 Nissan Murano. Wiring harness is easy to install. Take your time taking the vehicle apart. Its not difficult, but you don't want to break anything. One video showed the need to run a wire to the battery, but the 2014 had a plug in power source. Buy one of the 4 prong testers they sell. Class 3 Hidden Hitch was easy to install to. Only took off two of the muffler hangers on the drivers side and me and a friend bolted it right in. Autozone will lend you a torque wrench if you want to be precise.
Hitch arrived to my doorstep exactly as scheduled, I installed the hitch and wire harness per directions and it went perfect. Couldn't be happier with my purchase. Dealer wanted $650.00 for what I bought ($200.00) and installed my self (1 1/2 hours) E-Trailer is the best deal out there and their hitches are top quality!
I can not express how impressed I am with the hitch and connector I ordered from etrailer. When the hitch arrived I took a look at it and said "This will never fit on my car". But before calling about it I figured I'd give it a try. To my utter amazement the hitch slipped right into place...it literally took me 15 minutes to install. And it was easier than the directrions indicated...I didn't even have tio lower the muffler. Same with the electrical connections...a snap. It all works perfectly Thanks so much -- I will never hesitate to recommend etrailer.
No problem installing the hitch and the wiring of the harness purchased for my vehicle Nissan Murano, the hitch has served its purpose and then some. Thanks for your products etrailer.com
Totally plug and play, appreciated not running a new wire to the battery(uses existing Nissan trailer circuit), videos online were invaluable especially getting off push pins/plastic push lock tie down bits without breaking anything.
The trailer hitch was very easy to install about 30mins after re tapping the rusty holes for mounting. Wiring harness was a snap and took about 30mins total. These Are great products, love the look of the hidden hitch. Can't wait to deal with your company again..
