CURT Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring - C56272

Highlights

  • Tow Without Factory Prep: 4-pole flat connector powers trailer lights for safe towing.
  • Plug-and-Play Install: T-connector plugs inline with tail lights—no wire cutting needed.
  • Clean Power Feed: Built-in powered converter ensures proper signal strength and prevents overloads.
  • LED-Light Ready: Fully compatible with LED trailer or vehicle lighting systems.
  • Secure Grounding: Uses dedicated ground wire for consistent brake and turn signal operation.

Features to know about

Installs Cleanly Behind the Tail Lights: Plug-In T-Connector Design

Hooking up trailer wiring can be messy, but this harness keeps things simple. The Curt T-Connector plugs directly into the tail light connectors, so there’s no cutting or splicing wires. The plug-and-lead design hides neatly behind trim panels, giving a clean install that looks factory once it’s done.

Delivers Reliable Trailer Lighting: 4-Pole Flat Connector

Once connected, the built-in 4-pole flat connector powers your trailer’s running lights, turn signals, and brake lights. It’s the standard setup for small and mid-size trailers and works with add-on kits like the ETBC7 if you ever need a 7-way connection for trailer brakes or 12V power later on.

Protects Vehicle Electronics: Powered Converter Module

Modern vehicles use sensitive electronics, and direct splicing can cause problems. This harness includes a powered converter that isolates the trailer circuit from the vehicle’s wiring, helping prevent overloads or faults. It’s designed for vehicles without a factory tow package and keeps everything working safely and smoothly.

Built to Handle LED Lighting and Common Ground Issues

LED lighting is becoming standard on newer trailers, and this harness is built to handle it. It’s fully compatible with LED taillights, and when grounded properly to a clean metal surface, it delivers steady performance even when headlights or running lights are on. That means no flickering lights or weak signals—just consistent power every time you tow.

Thank you E Trailer what a great hitch, well built, welds are perfect and very heavy duty. Just what you need for towing anything.

KAYLEIGH...GOT ME EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED
by:
2015 Ford Edge
I installed this wiring harness on my 2015 Ford Edge and it works as designed with all connections to my trailer. The installation was completed after some difficulty in getting the wiring up through the very small space under the tail light assembly from below. I did have to remove the vehicle's connection to the tail light and then mate the trailer connection separately before replacing the taillight assembly. There was not enough extra room between the taillight assembly and the car body panel to remount with all the extra connection plug assemblies. It is well designed and works but not a real easy installation unless you have experience with one previously.

2016 Ford Edge
Hitch looks great on my 2016 edge tucks away nicely and all you see is the actual receiver. Had it installed by my mecchanics as they have a lift the only complaint they had was with the wiring an having out thru the hatch all the time so they decided to mount the four way outside to the actual receiver.
by:
2012 Chevrolet Volt
A little time consuming to do this. Since the trailers are LED lighting, we pulled power from the rear 12 volt port instead of running a heavy wire all the way up front. LED works fine with a smaller wire.

@Gregory Glad we had the right fit for you Gregory! What do you mainly use the wiring for?
by:
2017 Ford Edge
Installed and works great. The photos in the installation instructions leave a bit to be desired since several times I found myself trying to figure out the orientation of the photo to know what i was looking at. But once figured that out, it went relatively straight forward. The routing of the line up to the battery on a 2017 Ford Edge SEL is a bit of a puzzle. I was able to remove some of the under trim under the driver seat and route through there, then up the back side of the driver front wheel well using a wire to fish the cable through a small opening in the the top of the wheel well that is slightly behind the battery in the engine compartment. If you look up into the wheel well at the spring top, you'll see the part of opening - use flashlight to see light coming through from battery side. Wire should pass across that opening and down the backside of the wheel well trim.
by:
2018 Ford Edge
Overall this wiring harness was very easy to install and had good instructions provided too. I found it easier to run the main power wire inside my vehicle under the carpet & trim to the battery vs underneath the vehicle as the instructions suggested. The only item I had an issue with was the foam tape used to mount the power module, was bad and had been dried out. So I had to secure it with my own tape.

2016 Ford Edge
We just recently replaced our 2013 Ford Edge with a 2016 Ford Edge, we had used a Curt T Connector trailer tow wiring harness for the last 3 years without any issue whatsoever thus when needing a wiring harness for the 2016 Edge in order to tow our pontoon it was a no brainer, we ordered the Curt!

Nice wiring harness that worked perfectly after installation. The crimp connectors that came with the kit were not heat shrink as they were supposed to be. An easy install.
by:
2016 Ford Edge
Easy installation. Reaching for the fish wires is the most difficult task. It helps to feel for the wire. Then pass the bolt through the hole by hand rather than letting the wire pull it through.
by:
2018 Ford Edge
Worked well on our 2018 Ford Edge SEL. Be sure to properly ground all your lights by scraping off the paint first.

It has worked out well.We only got to camp 3 times last year, so will hope to use more this year. My Wifes son installs hitches and said it is a good one!
by:
2015 Ford Edge
Item was spot on, it was tough to fish the wires to the light as it is a tight squeeze and it was a two person job. Not the fault of the produce, Ford engineering.
Realistic installation time is 2 hrs and I am not a novice.

Product came very quickly. Easy to install and directions where clear and precise. Not my first etailer purchase, they have quality products and friendly customer service.

Does the job well. Kind of hard to feed wiring harness up to tail light but just take your time and all will work out.
by:
It was the easiest wire installation I have ever done, well worth the money !

Seems they could have plugged into factory harness at the bottom of the vehicle instead of taking half the car apart.
by:
Everything just plugs into your vehicle and video was a great help.

Year model changes but not a big deal, slight modification to a shield on exhaust. Great instructions and simple to install. Will buy again.

2017 Ford Edge
The kit solves all issues with modern car. Long as you order the one you need.
This is my second C56272. No slicing all pluge and play.
Running the main power wire fro battery is a bit time consuming but not that hard.
by:
Good product, good price, worked as expected. Installation directions were clear and detailed; actual install was more difficult than expected, took 3.5 hours. Product works great and worth the effort.
by:
Very pleased with this product. The package arrived quickly. The installation of this trailer wire harness was a breeze. I would recommend etrailer.com and this product over and over again.

Do you have a question about this Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring?
  • Does Power Wire of Curt Trailer Wiring Harness C56272 Have to Run to Vehicle Battery
    Hey John, I know that's tempting but the reason you don't want to use that circuit as the power source for the Curt trailer wiring harness part # C56272 is because this would defeat the circuit protection that running straight to the battery provides. So yes the harness would still technically work if you ran it to the 12 volt receptacle but in the event of a short this circuit could potentially get damaged as well.

  • Troubleshooting Brake Lights Not Working After 4-Way Install on 2016 Ford Edge
    Hi Brittney; since the second wiring harness didn't work it sounds like it probably isn't the wiring harness itself, although it is possible. Because everything else works and the signal comes from the tail lights I would double check your ground connection. Especially if you used the same ground point the second time. Make sure it is nice and secure on a clean, bare-metal surface. It also wouldn't hurt to make sure the connectors are completely seated. You can unplug them and plug them...

  • Troubleshooting A Turn Signal That Stays On Once The Curt T-Connector Wiring Harness Is Installed
    To start, the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56292 is for a 2017 Ford Edge with the Sport and Titanium package so If you have an SE or SEL model this could be causing the issue. If you have an SE or SEL model 2017 Ford Edge then you will want to use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56272 instead of the # C56292. The next step is check the ground wire and ensure it is making full contact with bare metal and double check that all your connections are tight....

  • Location of Plug In Connectors For Curt Wiring Harness C56272 On a 2018 Ford Edge
    All the 4-way vehicle wiring harnesses like the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56272 that fit your 2018 Ford Edge will require connecting directly to the tail light connectors. If you plan to run your 4-way permanently outside your Edge I recommend using either the 2" Curt Easy Mount Bracket # C58001 or 1-1/4" Curt Easy Mount Bracket # C58002 to secure the 4-way on the end of your receiver. If you do not already have a receiver I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver #...

  • Draw-Tite or etrailer? Which Hitch is Better for a 2018 Ford Edge SEL
    Yes, both the etrailer item # e36RR and the Draw-Tite item # 75234 hitches conceal the crossbar behind the bumper of your 2018 Ford Edge SEL. All you will see once installed is the 2" receiver and the safety chain loops. Both hitches are confirmed to fit your vehicle and have identical capacities of 4,500 lbs for towing and 675 lbs maximum tongue weights. I recommend the etrailer Hitch item # e36RR because of its flat matte black finish over the glossy Draw-Tite item # 75234 and the etrailer...

    You are correct, the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56272 is not a fit for a 2019 Ford Edge; this harness is only a fit for 2015-2018 Ford Edge SE and SEL models; whoever told you it did fit your vehicle was mistaken.

  • Wiring to Activate Boat Trailer Brakes for a 2015 Ford Edge SEL
    If you only have a 4-Way on your 2015 Ford Edge SEL, like the Curt # C56272 or Tekonsha # 118669, then the wiring that you need is the Kit # ETBC7. This connects to your 4-Way and provides both 4-Way and 7-Way connectors that are fully functioning. You will need a brake controller to send a signal back to the brakes on your boat trailer. We actually have an installation video of the ETBC7 kit and the popular Prodigy P3 # 90195 brake controller being installed on a 2016 Ford Edge that you...

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2018 Ford Edge SEL
    Hey Manie, welcome back! To add a 4-way wiring harness to your 2018 Ford Edge SEL, I recommend the Curt item # C56272. This custom fit harness is going to plug in directly behind your rear tail lights and provide with you with a 4-way connector. The only tricky part that would keep this from being a simple DIY project is going to be the 12v power line. With the Curt item # C56272, you have to run a wire all the way up to your Edge's battery. This means routing it under your Edge and avoiding...

  • Sporadic Lighting Functions for Trailer Lights on a 2017 Ford Edge
    For starters, the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56292 is for a 2017 Ford Edge with the Sport and Titanium package. If you have the SE and SEL package on your 2017 Ford Edge then you will want to use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56272. With that being said an LED trailer connector tester like part # F4CT do not always work with all trailer wiring harnesses so this could be the issue. I would ensure that the circuits are working by testing them with...

It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag. If...

    You are correct. Now that you have LED's you will need two separate wiring harnesses for flat towing and trailer lights.

  • Troubleshooting Right Turn Signal Flashing Twice as Fast As Other After Harness Installation
    The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56272 should not have changed the speed of your turn signal, so I recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to test the wires. Next I recommend checking the connections for bent pins and using a little dielectric grease # 11755 on the connections to give you a connection free of debris and moisture. Then doublecheck the ground connection on the harness. Make sure the connection is bare metal to...

  • Does Curt Trailer Wiring for 2015 Ford Edge Work with LED Taillights
    The Curt trailer wiring harness part # C56272 that you referenced is perfectly compatible with LED lights on your vehicle but I suspect you real issue is that you have a weak ground on the trailer wiring which is causing your lights to stop working properly when the running lights or headlights are on as this is a very common issue. What you can do is try improving the ground of the main trailer wiring harness and you should see the issue go away. Check to make sure the ground wire is...
