Parts Needed to Replace 4-Way with 7-Way Connector on 2011 Nissan Xterra with Tow Package
Question:
2011 Nissan Xterra I currently have a tow package installed with a four pole harness. I am going to be upgrading to a seven way harness. Do I also need to upgrade the relays that were previously installed or will the current ones work with the seven way?

Expert Reply:
If all the relays with the 4-Way connector were installed on your 2011 Nissan Xterra, like what is included with # C56225, they will not need to be replaced or upgraded when changing to a 7-Way connector on the vehicle. Since you do not need any of the relays, you can just use the Replacement Wiring Harness # 118282 to install a 7-Way on the Xterra. This will plug right into the built-in factory ports (the same location where the 4-Way is plugged into now) to provide you with a fully functional 7-Way connector.
I have attached a short video demonstration on this product that you can also check out.
