Trailer Wiring Harness Needed for a 2014 Ford E-150 Without Tow Package
Question:
Do you have a kit that includes a hookup for reverse lights on a 2014 Ford E150? I believe I do not have a tow package on my van. I am looking to add one with a hitch so I can use the vehicle to tow. Would like the option of having a trailer with reverse lights. Thank you

Helpful Expert Reply:
If you do not have any connectors at the rear of your 2014 Ford E-150 then you will need the T-One # 118551 for basic trailer light functions. From here you will need to see what kind of connector you have on your trailer for the reverse lights.
For a 5-Way connector use part # 47515 and connect the blue wire to your reverse light function. If your trailer has a 7-Way then you need to install the Adapter # 37185 or the Universal Wiring Kit # ETBC7 which comes with enough wiring and connectors to enable all of the 7-Way functions.
If you are wanting a heavy-duty trailer hitch then the Draw-Tite # 41945 is the best hitch for you. To complete your towing setup you will need a hitch ball, ball mount, and pin & clip like the Curt # C45036 but you will need to consult the helpful article to ensure the 2" drop is what you need for your towing setup.
I have attached some videos and helpful articles for you to check out as well.
