Installation

This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your Infiniti QX4's wiring harness, which is located inside your trunk or rear cargo area, behind the tail lights on both the driver's side and passenger's side. You will need to remove the trim panels to access this harness.

Once installation is complete, the 4-way flat connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your rear cargo area

It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.

Tail Light Converter

A tail light converter is built into this T-One connector. Because most trailers run on a two-wire system - wherein the brake and turn signals are carried on one wire - the separate brake and turn signals from your Infiniti QX4's three-wire system need to be combined so they are compatible with the wiring system of your trailer. The tail light converter combines the brake and turn signal functions of your automobile so that they run on one wire to properly activate your trailer's tail lights. Note: This will not affect how the tail lights on your Infiniti QX4 operate.

Video Transcript for Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2004 Nissan Pathfinder

Today on this 2004 Nissan Pathfinder, we will be installing Tow Ready wiring harness part number 118361. We are here in the rear cargo area of the Pathfinder and we are going to go ahead and point out the mounting location for our wiring harness. The ports that we are going to be plugging into are located on the inside of the vehicle here, behind the interior panels on both the driver and passenger side. The plugs we are looking for are basically behind the taillights themselves. So to gain access to those, we are going to need to remove a few things. We are first going to need to remove the rear threshold piece here at the rear cargo section of the vehicle. As you can see, we have six Phillip head screws that we are going to need to remove. And then we can just pop that right off with the screws removed. And we will set that off to the side for the time being. 0:53

I am going to start over here on the driver side and go ahead and remove this panel first. We have interior push pins that are holding this panel into place, located right along this rear threshold piece. To release those, we are just going to take a rivet removal tool like the one I have here. If you do not have one of these available, you can use a flat headed screwdriver. You basically want to get behind the panel and release the clips that are in there. You need to remove, not only those but, a couple of the ones on the forward side of the panel as well. And you will notice here on the bottom of the floor there is a tie down point. This may interfere with you pulling the panel back enough to gain access to the ports that we need to. So if that is the case, you want to go ahead and remove this as well. And with the blue plugs removed, you can see the plug in just a little bit easier, located right here. What we want to do is there is a tab just on the top side of the forward connector here. We want to press that in and that is going to allow us to separate the two pieces. 2:07

Next, we want to take our vehicle wiring harness and go ahead and start plugging it inline. Over here on the driver side, we want the ports that contain the yellow and brown wires on them. And again, we are just going to plug them inline. You will notice over here on the driver side as well that we have a white wire with a ring terminal on it. And that is our ground wire. We do need to ground that to a body component here. And if you follow the connector, just to the inboard side here, there is a ground screw located right here. We can go ahead and remove that screw and head our ground wire to there. And after we are finished attaching the converter box, we can go ahead and reinstall the blue plugs. Finally over here on the driver side, we want to go ahead and take our converter box, which you can see we have double sided tape on the back of, and go ahead and inhere it to the inside. And from there we can go ahead and put the panel back on on the driver side. What we want is to make sure we have our yellow and green wires, that are going to be going over to the passenger side connectors, out underneath the panel as well as the 4-pole itself. 3:53

Okay, the 4-pole end we are just going to leave over here on the driver side for the time being. We are going to take the other connector on our wiring harness and go ahead and route it across the threshold section here, back behind the passenger side panel where we are going to make our connection. We are just going to repeat the procedure that we had used on the diver side to remove the interior panel. What you are likely going to find on the passenger side is that the interior panel is not going to remove as easy and that is because of this compartment that is built in to the underside of the floor here. It makes it very difficult to get that panel back. What I will note is that there is a hole, just on the inside of the panel here, that is going to give us access to the plug that we are looking to gain access to. So to make the connection of the harness a little bit easier, what we are going to do is remove the rear taillight and pull our connection plugs out that way. And you can see here, with the taillight removed we can find our connector right here. So what I am going to do again is go ahead and take my harness, feed it through the opening on the interior and back out by the taillight here. And now we can just make our connection out here. 5:23

Then we just go ahead and feed our connectors back inside. Push our grommet back in and then put our taillight back into place. And then come back inside the vehicle and go ahead and reassemble our passenger side panel. And then we can put our rear threshold piece back on as well. We just want to make sure we keep the yellow and green wire from being pinched when we put the rear threshold piece back on. We can go ahead and pull our carpeting back into place here. And our 4-pole is going to stay stored over here on the driver side. We can pull it out of the rear cargo door when we want to go ahead and use it. The weatherstripping here will keep that from being pinched when we do go ahead and close the cargo door on it. From there, our installation is complete. And that will conclude the installation of Tow Ready wiring harness part number 118361 on a 2004 Nissan Pathfinder.

Wiring Harness Troubleshooting on a 1996 Nissan Pathfinder

Boat Trailer Towed by 2002 Nissan Pathfinder Has no Running Lights
I am glad you have managed to narrow down the problem by trying the trailer on a different vehicle. You have isolated the vehicle as being the problem. How to proceed from here will depend on whether your trailer connector is factory installed, or OEM. If the trailer connector was factory installed, it sounds like you have a blown fuse. In my research, I could not find a fuse location for you. Take a look at your owners manual, and look at the fuse box diagrams for the location of the trai

Trailer Lights Not Working with a CURT Trailer Wiring Harness on a 1996 Nissan Pathfinder
