Installing TowReady Wiring 7-Way Trailer Harness # 118266 in 2011 Nissan Pathfinder
Question:
I have a 2011 Pathfinder SE and installing the 118266 7 way kit. My pathfinder already has a 4 pin flat. The white connector in the 118266 kit is a 6 pin but the pathfinder has an 8 pin connector on the car. Should the white 6 pin fit into the original 8 pin connector? Thanks.

Thank you for your purchase of TowReady wiring harness # 118266.
My contact at TowReady has heard of similar issues arising where Nissan changed the connectors used on certain Pathfinder and Frontier vehicles. The part you ordered is the correct item for a 4-pole-equipped truck like yours and it is designed for your vehicle. The different connectors supplied by Nissan unfortunately are the issue.
I suggest you contact your local dealership to see if they can offer you a 7-way wiring harness that will fit the connector installed on your truck.
