Trailer wiring harness # 118265 is a fit for all styles of the 2015 Honda Pilot so we just have to figure out what exactly has taken place to render the harness inoperable. What I recommend is to go back and remove everything to start from scratch.

Before starting the installation process again take a moment to check the fuses to see if any are blown, including the ones in line with the wiring harness. Relays are harder to check. You would have to use a known good one in place of a potential bad one.

Once you have everything reinstalled and checked the fuses see if the harness is working. If not then there may be a factory fuse or relay that is missing. Consult the vehicle owners manual for all fuses and relays that could be related to tow package wiring and check that they are present and not blown.
