Today on our 2010 Nissan Murano well be installing the Tow-Ready T1 Connector part number 118481. Our first step is to access the rear cargo area. Well need to remove the flooring panels and the rear threshold. Next, well remove the fasteners that are securing the quarter panels behind the taillight. With our quarter panels out of the way, well gaining access to the rear taillight wiring. Well locate the manufacturers plug, disconnect it.
Here on the driver side, well take the yellow and brown plug wire, plug it in line with the manufacturers and then route the red and green wire over to the passenger side and repeat the same process. Now with our connection made in the passenger side, well move back over to the driver side where well route the 4-Pole underneath following the same wiring route only this time well stay in beside the spare tire. This is where well store our 4-Pole connector when not in use. Now lets go ahead and take the black wire supplied with our install kit and use the yellow but connector to connect it to the red wire come from our converter box. This will be our power wire coming directly from the battery of the vehicle.
First well route underneath the side cargo panel and then we can strip back our wires and make our connection with the butt connector. Quick tech tip: I recommend to use some black electrical tape to tape up this connection as it will assist in keeping out any dirt, dust and debris. Now that connection made, lets go ahead and feed our converter box in behind the quarter panel, at the same time feeding our white wire with a preformed ring terminal on it out into the spare tire area where well take our self-tapping screw and attach it to the metal creating our ground for our converter box. Now with that done, we need to go ahead and take our power wire and feed it outside of the vehicle. The best way to do this is using the manufacturers grommet.
As you can see, we have one here in the rear cargo area so go ahead and take our utility knife, cut a hole and feed our power wire down through that and onto the vehicle. With that done, we can go ahead and start routing our wire up to the battery. Keep in mind when routing your wires, stay away from excessive heat such as the exhaust or moving components such as the steering or suspension. Now weve got our power wire routed up into the engine compartment, we can go ahead and start routing it over to the battery. Keep in mind well be using the black zip ties provided with our install kit to secure our wiring.
That Ive figure out the length I need, well go ahead and cut off the excess, strip back our wires and add our fuse holder. As you can see, our fuse holder comes as a one-piece, well go ahead and cut it in half, strip back both ends. Well add the butt connector to one end and the ring terminal to the other. The ring terminal will be our attachment point to the battery. Once again, I recommend to go ahead tape up your butt connector to keep out any dust, dirt and debris. Now well go ahead and remove the nut on the positive battery terminal and secure our ring terminal. Well go ahead and install the fuse in the fuse holder and then finish securing our wire. Now that done, Ill go ahead and move back to the back of the vehicle and reinstall all of our interior trim panels. Alright, now that we have everything back together, lets go ahead and show you how to use your new 4-pole connector. Well simply take it out from the spare tire cargo well, drape it out over the threshold and down to the hitch or accessory. When running it outside across the threshold, we can close the door on it as the weather stripping is thick enough that it wont harm it but we do recommend to stay away from the latch as pinching it off in the latch can damage the wire. Then once youre completed using your 4-pole connector, simply roll it back up and store it in the spare tire cargo area. And thatll do it for the installation of our Tow-Ready T1 connector part number 118481 on our 2010 Nissan Murano.
