Are Curt 4-Way Relays Compatible With Hopkins 7-Way on 2017 Nissan Frontier

Question

Question:

Hello Etrailer team, A couple years ago I installed the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector C56225 in my 2017 Nissan frontier, with the three relays to activate the tow package. It works great for my boat trailer, but I just purchased a tent trailer with a 7 pin. My question is whether the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 7-Way and 4-Flat Connectors Item # HM43534 would work in my vehicle with the existing relays that came with the first product I purchased from from your company? Thanks for your support

The relays for the Curt # C56225 on your 2017 Nissan Frontier are the same as the ones that come with the Curt 7-Way # C56226. Since you already have the 7-way functionality from the relays that came with your 4-way you will be able to install and use the Hopkins # HM43534 without the need for additional parts.
