Trailer Wiring Needed to Tow a Small Trailer with a 2018 Honda Pilot

I already have a hitch for my bike rack but now I want to occassionally tow a small trailer and need wiring on my 2018 Pilot

Expert Reply:
For a 4-Way connector to tow your small trailer I recommend using the Curt T-Connector # C56291. This plugs right into existing wiring on your 2018 Honda Pilot, includes all of the fuses needed to activate your tow package, and will provide all of the signals for the basic lighting functions on your trailer.
To complete your towing setup you will also need a ball mount and hitch ball. I recommend a ball mount kit like the Curt # C45036 but you will want to check out the linked helpful article to ensure that the 2" drop is correct for towing your trailer.
