Your vehicle may be hardwired using the accessories below when a T-One connector is not available.
The wiring system on this vehicle is not strong enough to support both the vehicle and trailer lights. A powered converter or Modulite is required. Powered converters (Modulites) are spliced into the vehicle's wiring system to get the signal, but the power for the trailer lights is drawn directly from the vehicle battery. This bypasses all the expensive electrical components on the vehicle and reduces the strain on the wiring system. Circuit protection further safeguards the vehicle and the module itself from mis-wired trailers. For more information see our wiring faq page.
In order to choose the correct wiring harness for your vehicle you first must know how many lights are on the trailer you will be pulling. The number of lights determine the number of amps that the trailer is going to be drawing from the vehicle's wiring system. Standard Taillights usually require 2 amps per light. Clearance and Reverse lights take 0.5 amps per bulb. Some clearance and reverse lights have 2 bulbs.
