Question:

The brake lights are not working as it should be. i mounted als curt converter 56236 now is it working okbut is there a splitter that is combined? greets

Expert Reply:
You have the pulse width modulation figured out using the Curt Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56236 but there is not a combined splitter option with a PWM converter. I personally prefer the 4 Pole Trailer Connector (Includes Install Kit) # C59496 for the converter.
You will still need to use the Vehicle to Vehicle Tail Light Converter # C56196 you are already familiar with after that PWM converter to get your separated signals for the European 7 or 13 pin trailer connectors.
