Running Battery Lead Wire for Tekonsha Trailer Wiring that Fits 2020 Chevy Equinox
Question:
Any insight on running battery lead INSIDE vehicle? Getting through firewall?
asked by: Geoff
Expert Reply:
When we've installed the Tekonsha trailer wiring kit that fits your 2020 Equinox part # 118750 we always ran the power wire up to the battery underneath it since that's an easier solution and when done properly is just as reliable/safe as running it through the interior. Other benefits is that it didn't require finding or drilling a hole in the firewall of the vehicle. I attached an install video that covers exactly the route we took with the wire on a 2019 Equinox just like yours.
The best help we can give on routing it under the vehicle would be to check out the help article I also attached that gives tips on routing the power wire. There is a section on running it underneath the vehicle as well.
