Best 4-Pole Trailer Wiring Harness for 2016 Mazda CX-5
Question:
I saw that 3 brands of trailer wiring harnesses are available for my 2016 mazda cx5. Is their any differences between the 3 brands? If so which do you recommend.

Expert Reply:
In general we tend to prefer and recommend wiring harness products from Tekonsha/Tow Ready, both sister brands within the Reese family of companies. Of the three options shown on the linked page I recommend the Tekonsha # 118563.
This harness installs in the exact same manner as the others but it offers a higher current output rating which means it will be less likely to suffer overload from the trailer lights' power demands.
The linked video and article will aid your installation.
