Expert Reply:
I attached a couple sets of installation instructions for the Curt Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring # C59236 for you to check out.
Here is what you will need to do to install this in your 2011 Audi Q5:
1. Locate the vehicle taillight wiring, refer to typical locations above, based on type of vehicle you arere installing the converter on.
2 Using a test lamp, identify the corresponding wires in the harness for the left turn, right turn, tail/brake lights.
3. Temporarily remove the vehicle's negative battery cable from the battery.
4. Using wire taps, attach the input wires of the tail light converter to the corresponding vehicle harness wires identified in step 2 as indicated.
Converter Yellow Wire: Left Turn Circuit
Converter Red/Brown Wire: Brake/Tail Light Circuit
Converter Green Wire: Right Turn Circuit
5. Locate a clean accessible mounting location for the converter module. If locating on the outside the vehicle cabin, find a clean surface that is out of the path of spray and debris from the rear
wheels and the road surface.
6. Locate a suitable mounting location for the ground eyelet on the vehicle near the converter on vehicle’s frame or cross member. Remove any debris or undercoating to expose a clean
metal surface and drill a 3/32 inch hole. Mount the white wire using the ground screw and eyelet provided.
