Expert Reply:

For a 2014 Nissan Xterra you can use wiring harness # C56225, which you have referenced. This is the correct harness for an Xterra that did not come with a factory 4-Way or 7-Way trailer connector. The relays will be needed for the activation of the trailer wiring.

I have included a link to a video showing a typical installation and a link to the installation instructions.

I am glad to help you get your 2011 Frontier ready for towing with a hitch, wiring and brake controller. Instead of Curt hitch #13241 I recommend the Draw-Tite #75282 since it offers a higher tongue weight (TW) capacity (of 750-lbs versus 500-lbs for…
