Today we are going to be installing wiring harness part number 118244 on a 2004 Nissan Xterra. We are underneath the vehicle. With the spare tire removed we are taking a look at the passengers side frame rail here. You can see right at the top of the frame rail we have got this plug with a cap on it. That is the plug that we are going to need to plug our harness into. I am just going to remove the cap, and I am just going to push the button in on the top here and remove the cap. And then we are just simply going to plug our harness into that and secure any of the extra wires that you may have on the 4-pole, using some zip-ties. And you do want to test all functions to make sure that you are getting power on all active ports. And this will conclude the installation of wiring harness part number 118244 on a 2004 Nissan Xterra.

Part was easy to install but the protective cover on vehicle harness was a little bit of a pain to get off but once off the trailer harness was installed and it worked fine....i do recommend that you get harness protector its cheap and protects the harness about $2 then tie strap harness to vehicle. 19567

Just a simple item, a wiring harness that pluged in to a factory plug. Sure beat cutting the factory plug off and splicing wires. this item was first class, and so was the service I received. Sorry no picture, however I did use a few wire ties to snake this along the back side of the reciever/hitch with some electic tape to keep it from twisting, made for a first class install. would definently consider buying from this place again.18723

The wiring harness is well made. The wire is heavy duty and put together well. I would recommend purchasing the wiring housing to attach the harness to and a plastic wire sleeve or it will look sloppy with zip ties everywhere.17253
