2020 Chevrolet Trax - T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector

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

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your Chevrolet Trax with this custom wiring harness. T-One connector plugs directly into existing wiring. Powered ModuLite reduces strain on wiring system.


Features:

  • Provides a 4-way flat trailer connector at the back of your vehicle to power your trailer's signal lights
    • Compatible with 5-pole, 6-pole, and 7-pole adapters (sold separately)
  • Connects quickly and easily
    • Locate connection points in trunk
    • Plug in T-connector
    • Run hot lead to car battery
  • Includes ModuLite to ensure that your vehicle's wiring matches that of your trailer
    • Powered module pulls power from battery to avoid overloading vehicle's electrical system
  • Constructed of 16-gauge bonded wire
  • Comes with dust cap for 4-way flat connector


Specs:

  • Maximum amperage:
    • Stop/turn lights: 4.2 amps per circuit
    • Tail lights: 7.5 amps per circuit
  • 1-Year limited warranty


Installation

This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located inside your trunk, behind the tail lights on both the driver's side and passenger's side. You will need to remove the rear threshold panel, any floor panels or trays, and some of the interior trim.


Once you've plugged in the T-connector, run the hot lead with the attached fuse holder to the car battery, which is also in your vehicle's trunk. Connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal on your battery and insert the provided fuse.


Once installation is complete, the 4-way flat connector will be stowed in your trunk.


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


ModuLite Powered Tail Light Converter

A ModuLite power module is built into this T-One connector. 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 your trailer. This power module functions as a tail light converter to combine 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.

With a ModuLite, your trailer's lights will be powered without overloading your vehicle's electrical system. Because the module draws power directly from your car's battery and bypasses the electrical routes that are used by a basic wiring harness, there is virtually no draw on your tail light circuits.

This is the 2nd time I have ordered through this company for 2 different vehicles. This one was easy to install by myself. The installation videos were great to watch. I will use again when needed.

PLug and Play T-one T-connector 118659. Hardest part was removing the interior trim for my 2015 Chevrolet Trax. The instructions are quite vague. Once I got it hook up, It worked fine. Hooking it up was fairly easy after the panels were out of the wat.

When I ordered the item it said that it would fit my vehicle. When I got the product the package didn't list my vehicle so I was worried. Good to say is that it fit perfect. The packaging was great and the item works great. the installation was easy and had easy to follow directions. My 14 year old grand kid could of done it. Exellent company Will defenitly order from them again.

This is a real good, well designed and thoroughly thought out product. I was able to watch the video for the harness installation for my Trax vehicle and it was just like having someone there to assist me. I followed the written and video directions and had no problems. I am glad I didn't have to run the 20' power wire clear up to the battery, thanks to the great alternative guidance in the video, which was better and simpler. I shorted the rating a star due to my discovery that some directions were not required, such as the special tool to remove the harness connector on the passenger side. I just unplugged to taillight connector instead and inserted the T-harness. Also the video and instructions are a bit vague in putting all the parts back in their proper places. All in all, this was a much easier process than finding all the correct wiring, and where to manually splice the trailer light cabling onto each of them.



by:

This product could not have been any easier to install. I watched the installation video several times even before the hitch arrived so I had it in my head how things should go. I put the back end of my car (2019 Chevy Trax) up on my car ramps and went to work. I followed the instructions and it was like everything fell into place. Once I got the hitch up past the exhaust I could hold it up with my knee on one end and my hands on the other end. Got the screws started on each side on the bottom of the frame to hold it up and then the side bolts were a piece of cake. If you have a Trax like I do and need to haul small loads around, I highly recommend this product. It truly is a well designed custom fit product. I plan to purchase a 5 x 8 foot trailer with a fold down ramp that weighs 400 pounds so my pay loads will be around 800 pounds max. I think I'll nick name it "The Mini Hauler Express". No pictures because mine wouldn't be any better than the video.

Watch the install videos before installing hitch and wiring harness. Nice to have a helper handing tools if working under car ramps. Saved about $150 in installation fees by doing it myself. I did feel install was moderately difficult, though glad i did it

I have a Leased Vehicle and will be turning it in shortly will be getting the same type of SUV just a newer model this will make thing a lot easier to disconnect



by:

The harness worked perfectly! The [installation] videos were clear on how/where to run wires and mount the unit. I think a part was missing that needs to note to drill a hole to install the ground screw (or I missed it). Aside from that, it really works perfectly. I'm happy the power wire that runs on the outside of the car is thicker to put up with the elements. The video was very helpful in routing. I wish the price was a little cheaper but, its a solid unit and is still worth it.



by:

Great to get for trailer hookup. It plugged right in with no splicing . If you ever want to take it off you can easily. I love this wiring hookup.

Ok, I think I know what happened here. It looks like you may have ordered the harness for the LS models instead of the LT models by mistake. You would need part # 118751 for your vehicle.

Super easy install, all parts were there. Delivered next day at cost. Definitely will be my number 1 go to moving forward. Next I need a brake controller for my 2016 Chevy Trax. I'm debating on the Curt bluetooth because it's effortless an no wires. 230 dollars though but probably well worth it. Give etrailer your business they deserve it and have tutorial videos. I watched mine 5 times before I got out and it only took me 10 mins to install. etrailer is number 1 in my book.



by:

The order was received in a timely manner and the instructions were very clear



by:

Perfect Fit, simple install. I decided to use a factory standoff (stud) for the ground screw, rather than drill a hole. I bought a nut and toothed washer at the hardware store for 25 cents. Easy.



by:

Plug n play is the only way to go.

video was a great help. I installed it in about the time it took the mechanic to read the instructions. Routing suggestions for hot lead were good.

The survice was excellent. It was easy to find what i needed and easy to order. Staff help me out with my question and pointed me in the right direction. It shipped very fast and got to my front door within days of ordering and the packaging was great no mess or damage.

  • Selecting The Correct Tekonsha 4-Way Wiring Harness For a 2020 Chevrolet Trax
    First you will want to verify your connector to determine which of the 2 connectors you have. The Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118751 is confirmed to fit the LT and Premier Trims of your 2020 Chevrolet Trax. The connectors are different as these trims have LED tail lights. The Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118659 will fit the LS trims with the base model incandescent tail lights. I have included pictures of both the different connectors for you to compare with...

    I checked with our vendors and the only custom fit wiring harness for a 2016 Chevy Trax is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness item # 118659 you were looking at but it doesn't fit the LS model. As much as you don't want to you'll have to use a universal harness to add a 4-way connector to your Trax LS. I recommend the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness item # 119250KIT. This universal harness requires no cutting and uses clamps on the factory wiring harness to signal your trailer...

The Tekonsha T-One # 118751 you were looking at is for an LT or Premier Model as well.

    The correct custom fit trailer wiring harness for a 2022 Chevrolet Trax will be based on trim package. The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness is our best option, you'll need part # 118659 for LS trims or part # 118751 for LT and Premier trims. These are both plug and play options with no splicing required. They come with a 4-pin/4-way which is the most common connector and used on most trailers. If you don't already have a trailer hitch picked out, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2015 Chevy Trax
    The wiring harness for your 2015 Chevy Trax is # 118659. None of the other wiring harnesses have been confirmed to fit the 2015. For a trailer hitch I recommend Hidden Hitch model # 90244. It comes with the proper ball mount. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258. If you want to use the hitch for an accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier then you have to make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack,...

    The height from the ground to the inside top edge of the receiver tube opening of part # C11527 on a Chevrolet Trax is about 11 inches. I've linked a video of when we installed this hitch on a 2015 Chevrolet Trax that shows the measurement. If you are trying to find out the rise or drop of the ball mount you need, the next step is to measure from level ground to the bottom of the coupler of your trailer. There is a recommended Class I ball mount for this hitch part # C45520. It looks like...

So not to keep you waiting, but let the anticipation rise a little bit. And now for the big reveal.

  • What Size Fuse Does The Tekonsha T-One Harness 118659 For 2015 Chevrolet Trax Use?
    The Tekonsha T-Connector # 118659 you were looking at for your 2015 Chevrolet Trax includes a 15 amp fuse that gets installed in the yellow fuse holder you mentioned. If you are needing a replacement fuse we have the Fuse Kit # PT52FR which includes 10 15 Amp fuses and multiple other fuses which are always nice to have on hand just in case. I included a video of the # 118659 for you to take a look at.

  • Does Trailer Wiring for 2019 Chevy Trax Have to Run to Vehicle Battery
    Hey Bill, the part # 118659 would in theory work ran from a standalone battery but if it was one that wasn't charged regularly it would eventually end up dead and the trailer wiring would stop working. It's best to install it like it was designed and run it to the vehicle battery.

  • Availability of a Plug and Play Wiring Harness Kit for a 2016 Chevy Trax
    The plug and play wiring harness that's available for your 2016 Chevrolet Trax is the Tekonsha # 118659. I've attached an install video for you to take a look at. If you don't have a trailer hitch already I recommend the Curt # C11527. This is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. The recommended ball mount for you is # 36061 which includes a pin and clip. Then for a hitch ball use either # 19258 for a 2 inch ball or # 19257 for a 1-7/8 inch.

  • Do Trailer Hitches for 2018 Chevy Trax Include Wiring Harness
    None of the trailer hitches we have available include a wiring harness but one can certainly be added for your 2018 Chevy Trax. Starting with the hitch I recommend the Curt Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11527. This is the only hitch available for your vehicle at this time. It is a class I, 1-1/4" hitch and will require you to use an additional stabilizing strap # 18050 for any non-trailer load like a bike rack or cargo carrier.

I recommend finding/borrowing/renting a different vehicle to accomplish this but if you're bound and determined here is what you need: Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - # DT32GR Trailer Wiring - LS # 118659 - OR - LT and Premier # 118751 Towing Kit - # C43KR Be sure to check out the linked ball mount...

  • Does Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch DT32GR Fit 2021 Chevy Trax & Is It Class III
    Hi Gary, Yes, for the 2021 Chevy Trax, the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT32GR is a Class III and is indeed a fit for your vehicle. As for what else you need, that depends on what you are using the hitch for, though you plan on doing some towing and need a 4-way wiring harness, use # C43FR if you have the LT model or # 118659 if you have the LS model.

  • Hitch Recommendation for 2019 Chevy Trax
    The 2019 Chevy Trax is rated for towing and we do have the Curt hitch part # C11527 that fits this vehicle that has a 2,000 lb towing capacity which would be more than enough for a log splitter. Your vehicle looks to have a towing capacity of between 1,500 and 3,500 lbs depending on how it's equipped as well. Then for trailer wiring you'd want the part # 118659 for if you have an LS model or the part # 118751 for if you have an LT or a Premier. Then for a ball mount you'd want the part...

  • Trailer Hitch Compatibility with 2015 Chevy Trax and Towing Component Fit
    For your 2015 Chevy Trax there is not a class III hitch receiver from any of our manufacturers. They do offer Class I Curt Class I - 1-1/4" # C11527. You can use this hitch with a hitch expander like # HTAD to make it compatible with 2 inch accessories like a bike rack. You will however lose 50% of the trailer hitch's rated tongue weight when using an expander like this so the max tongue weight would then be 100 lbs. I don't recommend using the expander for towing.

  • Recommended Wiring Harness For 2015 Chevrolet Trax
    We have one trailer wiring harness available that is confirmed as a fit for the 2015 Chevrolet Trax. I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector, part # 118659. You can access the wiring connections you need for the installation of the harness in the rear cargo area of your Trax behind access panels. You will then need to run the black power wire to the front of the vehicle and attach it to the positive post on the battery using the included in-line fuse.
