Recommendations to Convert the 4-way of a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe to a 7-Way
Question:
I have a 2013 Santa Fe V6 Long wheel base that comes standard with the towing package pre wire connection. I want to hook up a 7 pole light weight trailer to the standard flat 4 that comes with the wiring T connection. I cant find an adaptor that converts the flat for to the round 7 trailer connection. Can you direct me to the appropriate adaptor or show me a wiring kit which connects directly into the hyundai trailer wiring pre connects to provide 7 pole connection for travel trailers?

If you are looking to just use the tail light functions of your trailer you could plug the 4-way of your 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe into a Adapter 4 Pole to 7 Pole # 37185 and just tape up the extra wires out of the way as they would not be needed.
If you do not have a 4-way you will need to get a Curt 4-way harness # C56184.
If you need for the 7-way to be fully functional you will need a Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7. This comes with everything needed for the 7-way to fully function. I attached installation instruction and an install video for this product for you to check out also.
If you do not have a brake controller picked out, I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller # 90885. This is our best-selling controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.
