CURT Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring - C48ZV

  • Trailer Hitch Wiring
  • Custom Fit
  • 4 Flat
  • Powered Converter
  • CURT

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly in OEM tow package port. Powered converter reduces strain on wiring system and is made using SMT to ensure superior performance.


Features:

  • Provides a 4-way flat trailer connector at the back of your vehicle to power your trailer's signal lights
    • Designed for use with a factory tow package
    • Compatible with 5-pole, 6-pole and 7-pole adapters (sold separately)
  • Connects quickly and easily
    • Locate connection point in rear cargo area
    • Plug in T-connector
  • Includes a tail light converter to ensure that your vehicle's wiring matches that of your trailer
    • Powered module connects directly to battery to avoid overloading vehicle's electrical system
  • Constructed using surface-mount technology (SMT) for consistent, reliable performance
    • Maximizes trailer light yield and intensity while producing minimal heat
    • Ensures superior operation in rough road conditions
  • Comes with dust cap for 4-way flat connector


Specs:

  • Maximum amperage:
    • Stop/turn lights: 3 amps per circuit
    • Tail lights: 6 amps per circuit
  • Limited 1-year warranty


Installation

This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's factory tow package, which is located in your cargo area, on the driver's side. You will have to remove the scuff panel and the cargo holder to access this port. Once you've plugged in the T-connector, insert the included 10-amp fuse into the fuse holder.


Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your trunk.


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


Powered Tail Light Converter with Surface-Mount Technology

A tail light converter is built into this T-connector. This converter is a circuit-protected, battery-powered unit that bypasses the electrical routes that are used by a basic wiring harness. As a result, there is virtually no draw on your tail light circuits.


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 vehicle's three-wire system need to be combined so they are compatible with the wiring system of the trailer. This 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 vehicle operate.


Curt builds each tail light converter using surface-mount technology (SMT). This method of construction involves soldering electronic components directly to the surface of a printed circuit board. SMT eliminates the need for leads, which are used in older through-hole technology. The result is a circuit board that is smaller yet provides more routing area and that offers superior performance, reliability and durability.


Curt SMT Circuit Boards

Circuit boards constructed using SMT have been shown to perform better under rough conditions with excessive vibration than those made using the through-hole method. And where would vibration be more likely to occur than in towing applications? Curt converters also produce less heat, leading to increased durability and longer life. In addition, lower levels of resistance ensure better performance, especially for parts that operate at higher frequencies.


Each Curt circuit board is made using high-quality components that are pieced together in the most technologically savvy fashion, leading to greater predictability and reliability in functioning.

I've put hitches and wired 2 other vehicles . This by far was the easiest and best fitting installation I've ever done. I'm very pleased with both the product and service. The Videos were very helpful ..

Your product is great! I was able to wire it in quickly and flawlessly… BUT… There is a problem with the Honda Corporation as they do not provide the fuses necessary to drive the system. So, I’m off to the parts store this morning to complete the job. You would think that a car company that installs a factory hitch on a $50,000+ vehicle could part with less than $10 worth of fuses! The local Honda dealership and I will have a poignant conversation about this when I stop in there in the near future. Thank you for great instructions on this simple install!!

Easy fit to factory plug under left rear cubby. Plus a 10 mm bolt in easy reach for the ground. Quick ship and great communications made trailer my go to place. Incidentally, the fuses needed to power up the trailer harness are one 30 amp m split case and two sub mini 20 amp fuses for trailer charge and trailer brake.

I would give it 10 stars I got my order super fast and the ups handler guess did a horrible job at keeping the box together or maybe the loaders but a cable fell out of the box and they sent me a replacement right away I sent them over the proof that box was damaged from ups they went above and beyond thank u guys

2023 Honda Pilot EX-L Curt custom 4 way flat wiring connector etrailer # C48ZV. Step No.5 in the Curt instructions needs to be ignored, there is no need for a new power wire to the vehicle battery.The curt converter box gets power from the vehicle wiring. When connecting the white curt connector to the vehicle connector the release clip on the curt connector goes on the right side. Had to use a borescope to figure this out. One 30 amp fuse needs to be added in main fuse box position 7 and one 20 amp fuse needs to be added in main fuse box position 12. The Curt instructions do not include this. Used a 3/16 machine screw and locknut to secure ground wire to existing hole in steel support after removing trim panel in front of storage area.

Just like Richard said in his review you must install the two fuses in the main fuse panel for this harness to work.

Excellent product. But it arrive in damaged box. I could not find 2 bolts. They were loose in the box and it is a mericle they did not fall out a hole.

The instructions lacked the fact that honda did not install a fuse for the wiring. Or to check this if it did not work. A few hours of trouble shooting and I found the missing fuse. Vehicle fuse. Not the product fuse.

Perfect fit and easy install for my 2023 pilot. Watch the easy install video and don’t forget you have to buy three fuses separately any local auto parts store will have them.

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2024 Honda Pilot
    Yes, we do! To add a hitch to your 2024 Honda Pilot, I recommend the etrailer item # e27KR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Honda with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver that has a 6,000 lbs towing capacity and a 900 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have attached an installation video to help you get it installed. If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C48ZV for a 4-Way or item # C35ZV for a 7-Way and a ball mount...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness For 2025 Honda Pilot
    Hi Ed, We do indeed have trailer wiring harnesses that fit your 2025 Honda Pilot. I went ahead and checked directly with the manufacturer for you and verified there are two options - a 4-way and 7-way: - 4-Way: Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C48ZV - 7-Way: Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C35ZV Use the 7-way if you are towing a trailer with electric brakes and have a brake controller, but if your trailer doesn't have electric brakes and you just need the harness...

  • Is Mounting Bracket Needed For Curt 4-Way on 2024 Honda Pilot
    Thanks for the purchases Cathy, and the quick answer is nope, a mounting bracket is not needed at all for your 2024 Honda Pilot for the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C48ZV. Pretty simple reason why is the # C48ZV will actually mount right in the rear storage area/hatch of your '24 Pilot and you'll only take it out of there when you want to use the 4-way. I like the fact it stores in the hitch because the 4-way will stay cleaner and won't get...

  • Most Economical Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring Harness For a 2023 Honda Pilot Touring
    Our etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e27KR you found is our most economical custom fit receiver for your 2023 Honda Pilot Touring edition. For the wiring you can select from either the 4-Way # C48ZV or the 7-Way # C35ZV depending on the types of trailers you will be towing. If you have a trailer with a 7-way you are also most likely going to need a Trailer Brake Controller # 39510 along with the Wiring # 20127 to connect it. This is one of our most economical and reliable proportional...

  • Is There a Trailer Hitch Receiver Compatible With Hands Free Liftgate On 2025 Honda Pilot?
    While we have not personally tested the hands free liftgate on a 2025 Honda Pilot Touring we have received reviews on the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C22HR that it was still operational. Do understand as I found out on my Acura RDX that the area you have to kick your foot will be reduced and you are most likely going to have to kick your foot closer to the rear fascia then before. We have either a 4-Way # C48ZV or 7-Way # C35ZV wiring kit depending on what size trailer you are going...

  • Recommended Curt Trailer Hitch For A 2024 Honda Pilot
    Hey Sal, The correct Curt trailer hitch for a 2024 Honda Pilot would be the Curt Class 3 Trailer Hitch # C22HR (13472). The 13146 is a fit for 2016 - 2022 year models. If you plan on towing a trailer then you'll want to pick up the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C48ZV to transfer your light signals to the trailer.

  • 4-Way Wiring Harness For 2023 Honda Pilot Without Tow Package
    If your 2023 Honda Pilot doesn't have the tow package port in the storage cubby area on the driver's side that is needed for the plug-in Curt T-Connector # C48ZV then there isn't another plug-in option, you'd have to use the hardwired Curt Powered Tail Light Converter w/ 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector # C59496. You may want to check just to make sure so you don't have to do more wiring than is necessary. The cut out below is from the instructions of the # C48ZV for where to find the white...

  • Do I Need Additional Fuses for the Main Fuse Box on a 2024 Honda Pilot to Power a Wiring Harness?
    Yes, it is! Honda and other manufacture's like to leave the fuses out of new vehicles that do not come with a functional towing package to save on costs. You can verify if you're missing the fuses by checking your fuse box but I am pretty sure they won't be there. I took a look at your owner's manual and you'll want to look at fuses 7 and 12 in your main fuse box. The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # C48ZV only comes with the fuse necessary...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For A 2025 Honda Pilot Elite
    Hello Hoan, thanks for reaching out. I double checked with the manufacturer, and they confirmed that yes, the etrailer Class 3 Hitch # e27KR will indeed fit the 2025 Honda Pilot Elite. It will be a no drill install and you will not need to cut any of the underbody panels. Keep in mind that the hitch will fit with a mini spare tire stowed under the vehicle but does not fit with a full-size spare. Also, the receiver can interfere with the hands-free liftgate sensor. In most cases, the sensor...

  • Hitch and Wiring Recommendation for a 2025 Honda Pilot Black Edition
    Hey Gregory, thanks for reaching out! I recommend picking up the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e27KR and the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C48ZV for your 2025 Honda Pilot. At this point in time we haven't tested out the hands-free liftgate feature on a 2025 Pilot so I can't guarantee that it will still work with any of our hitches, but it sits back far enough you should be able to kick to the left or right of the hitch receiver for the sensors to pick up your foot motion.
