- Troubleshooting a Brake Controller Draining a Vehicle Battery When Not in Use
- It sounds like there is a short somewhere in the system that is drawing power and draining the battery. The brake controller you have should only draw a few milliamps of power when not in use. The most likely shorts are a short to ground and a short to the blue wire.
Start at the brake controller and sever the blue wire leaving enough length to reconnect when finished testing. If everything is shut off, test the blue wire to determine if there is voltage coming through. You can use a multimet

- Will the Thule Force Alpine Cargo Box Fit a 2012 Hyundai Tucson with Factory Crossbars
- The cargo boxes listed in the Thule fit guide on line are ones that fit your 2012 Hyundai Tucson AND do not cause rear hatch interference with the hatch opened. You can use a longer cargo box but you will not be able to fully open the rear hatch. If this is not an issue for you then you can go with a longer box for your skis. So the Force Alpine, # TH623, will fit the crossbars, it is just long enough that on your Tucson it will interfere with opening the hatch all the way.

- Installing T-One Harness # 118501 on 2013 Hyundai Tucson
- The instructions included with the # 118501 wiring harness for your 2013 Tucson are a bit on the vague side. The procedure is different from the Santa Fe harness you mentioned.
The first step in the install involves removing the tail light assemblies (as if you were changing a burned out taillight bulb). Disconnect the manufacturers wiring harness from the rear of the assemblies.
You will then need to remove the spare tire cover (cargo area floor) and threshold. Then, locate and remove th

- Adding a 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 2011 Hyundai Tuscon with 4-Way Flat to Tow Jayco Trailer
- The first thing you are going to want to look at is in the 7-Way uses round pins like # PK11700, or blade style like # PK12706. This is so we can pick out the correct adapter for you.
If it uses the blade style pins then there are several adapters available like # 37185 that you could use. If it has round pins it would be easiest to replace the connector on the trailer using # PK12706 and then use the adapter.

It comes with its own bars and mounting hardware to clamp around the factory side rails. This basket measures 50 inches long by 45 inches wide. Measure the space on the roof to determine how much room it takes up to determine if it will be to your liking.

- Folding Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier Recommendation for a 2011 Hyundai Tucson
- There are some measurements you will need to take to determine if the Curt cargo carrier, # C18131, will fit when folded up on your 2011 Hyundai Tucson. First, measure from the center of the hitch pin hole straight back to the distance required to clear the rear of the vehicle.
On Curt cargo carrier # C18131, it measures only 3 inches from hitch pin hole to the rails when folded up so it probably will not fit. I do not recommend using an extension because doing so will reduce the tongue weig

- Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2011 Hyundai Tuscon and Electra Townie Bike
- For your 2011 Hyundai Tucson there are several trunk mount bike rack options, see link. I recommend the Thule Raceway 3, # TH9002, that you have referenced. I personally own this rack and it is the easiest to use and quickest to install trunk mount rack I have used.
In order to place your Electra Townie bike on a rack you will need to use a bike adapter bar # TH982XT. It clamps around the seat post and handle bar gooseneck so that you can mount the bike on the rack. I have included a link to

- Right Turn Signal Only Works when Brakes Applied on Trailer Towed by 2010 Hyundai Tucson
- This sounds like a ground issue since it is just the turn signal on the right side.. What you will want to do is make sure that the main trailer connector ground and the light grounds are all attached to clean and corrosion free bare metal surfaces.
Also make sure the trailer and vehicle side connectors are clean and that the trailer wiring converter on the vehicle, unless it was a factory harness, is properly grounded to bare metal.

- What is the Weight Capacity of the Yakima Double Down 2 Bike Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack
- The Yakima bike rack, # Y02423, itself weighs 30 pounds. It can carry up to 90 pounds total. So if loaded to capacity the tongue weight on the hitch would be 120 pounds. The bike rack has more than enough capacity for the two 38 pound bikes you have.
If you will be carrying womens, childrens, or alternative frame bikes I recommend using the Tube Top adapter bar, # Y02531, for greater round clearance and to carry the bikes more level. I have included a link to a video showing how the adapter w

- Roof Rack Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2007 Hyundai Tucson
- For your 2007 Hyundai you will need to take some measurements to determine if the back hatch can be opened with a bike rack attached.

If you need cross bars for the raised rails you can use the Yakima RailGrab Towers, # Y00138, and the Round 58 inch CrossBars, # Y00

- Reducing Sag and Improving Ride Quality For a 2010 Hyundai Tucson Towing a Pop-Up Trailer

Weight distribution is going to help level the vehicle, improve ride quality, and help with sway. You have to go by the tongue weight of the trailer when loaded and ready to tow, plus the weight of anything loaded behind the rear axle of the vehicle. This is the total tong

- Cargo Carrier Recommendations for a 2011 Hyundai Tuscon with 1-1/4 inch Trailer Hitch
- Yes, the Surco Products 20x48 Cargo Carrier, # 52017, will work great on your 2011 Hyundai Tuscon, with 1-1/4 inch hitch.
This carrier does not fold up, and because of the lower weight capacities of 1-1/4 inch hitches, none of the 1-1/4 inch cargo carriers that we carry, see link, are designed to fold. This is the case because the folding mechanism can create extra torque on the trailer hitch and vehicle frame, possibly causing damage.
