2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited 5-Way Trailer Wiring Harness Recommendation
Question:
I have a 2013 Jeep Wrangler unlimited that doesn’t have a harnes. I need a 7 pin harness, really I just need a 5 pin, because to back up my trailer it has to trigger the selionoid. What harness do I need?

Expert Reply:
If all you need is a 5-way for your 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited what you'll need is a custom fit 4-way like the Tekonsha kit part # 118416 and then to convert it to a 5-way part # 20036 and you'd be set.
The part # 118416 installs by attaching inline with the taillight connectors of the Jeep and then the # 20036 plugs into the 4-way and allows you to run the 5th wire to the reverse light circuit of your vehicle and you have a functioning 5-way.
