Troubleshooting the Tekonsha T-One Connector 118617 on 2020 Dodge Durango
Question:
I just installed this on a 2020 Durango rt w/o tow package. All the lights work except the marker lights. After a few minutes they shut off and then will come back on.

Expert Reply:
The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118617 is the correct fit for your Durango according to the manufacturer. Since this is a powered unit, the module gets power directly from the battery and just captures signal from your factory wiring. It sounds like there is a connection issue. I recommend checking the connection points at your tail lights to make sure there aren't any bent pins, and the connections are firmly in place without any loose wires in the connectors. It can be helpful to keep moisture out of your connections using dielectric grease # 11755.
