Installation
This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side tail lights. Once you've plugged in the T-connector, run the hot lead up to your car battery. Connect the lead to the included fuse holder, and then connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal on your battery.
Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your cargo area.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly into existing wiring. Powered converter reduces strain on wiring system and is made using SMT to ensure superior performance.The wiring harness came with everything I needed for the installation. The hardest part of the installation was running the 12 volt power wire from the rear of the car to the engine compartment. I purchased the optional weather-proof connector wit the heat shrink tubing. This ensures a good waterproof connection for the wiring. The only minor complaint that I have is that I don't like the dangling trailer electrical plug-in. It would be nicer if the plug-in could have been mounted to the bottom of the bumper. 644077

Easy install and great product 782159
This order arrived quickly. It is extremely easy to put together with basic hand tools. The wires and plugs are made of good quality. I recommend buying heat shrink connectors instead of using the ones provided (more weather proof). You may need/want some extra zip ties. All in all I would buy it again. 777862
Very easy to install 776721
the wires connecting to driver side should have been a little longer, the module didn't come down far enough to secure it to frame had to zip tie it . . . would have been a 5 other than that all fit where it needed to go, and worked ! 749368
This was my second trailer wiring kit for my 2010 Ford Escape. The first one stopped working correctly after about 4 years due to somehow the little module that was mounted with double sided tape behind the tail light came loose and was dangling down where it was exposed to the elements. The second unit was mounted with a screw and worked like a charm. The only minor difficulty is running the power wiring up to the battery in a manner that it is protected and out of the way. Other than that, easy fast installation in one evening. I’ve since traded that vehicle so I can only assume it’s still working. 723422
Easy install works great. Best price 722333
Installed this on my son's 2011 Ford Escape. Using the simple to follow instructions and the Videos provided by Etrailer made this a simple project. We installed this in conjunction with a receiver hitch, which we also ordered from Etrailer. 720600
Great assistance with determining & ordering trailer hitch, ball & receiver and wiring harness. Product arrived promptly as expected and is now installed on my 2010 Mazda Tribute. Thanks for the expert assistance! 699316
Good product, works great and it was not hard to self install on a Ford Edge. 680932
Robert W - 08/06/2020Very satisfied with the product. The package arrived a little beat up with a significant gash in the side of the box, but the hitch was undamaged and all parts were intact. The hitch installed easily, everything fit as needed, though why the need for a spaced between the hitch and the frame on the passenger side really doesn't make sense, it looks like a fix for a hitch with incorrect mounting hole locations. And that did make the installation a little more difficult, but manageable. The wiring harness also installed easily, everything needed was there and everything worked as it should. I'm quite satisfied. 680881

did not install the hitch myself, however the fellow who did, was thankful for the tutorial. he also connected the connecter & wiring & said he had no problems...Thank you very much LoriB for making the whole operation easy 664058
The product was easy to install and has worked great since I self installed it. All the support material, Videos & Instructions were easy to follow. Thanks for the GREAT product and service! 659085
I just finished installing my new Curt hitch on my Ford escape. Everything went as planned according to the instructions and video. No missing hardware or surprises, its refreshing to purchase something on line and have the results that I experienced. 655989
