Recommended 7-Way Connector for a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
Question:
I have a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L without the tow package. How do I add a 7-way connector to it?

Expert Reply:
To install a 7-Way harness on your 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L you will need two separate wiring harnesses because they don't make just one that'll do the job.
The first harness you'll need is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # C27BR. This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your Jeep's wiring harness, which is located behind the tail lights. This will provide you with a 4-flat connector.
The second harness you will need is the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller item # ETBC7. The kit includes a pre-wired 7- and 4-way trailer connector that mounts easily at the rear of your vehicle with an included bracket. This kit is designed for use on a vehicle with an existing 4-way flat trailer connector and plugs directly into it.
Some other parts you will need to tow a trailer with your 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L are listed below:
Trailer Hitch - Curt Trailer Hitch item # C96NR
Wiring Harness Mount - No-Drill Mount Bracket item # 18136
Brake Controller - Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller item # RED24FR and Wiring Adapter item # RED69FR
Ball Mount - Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534
