Features to know about

Effortless Installation: Custom-Fit T-One Connector

Experience the ultimate ease when setting up your trailer wiring with the custom-fit T-One Connector. Designed to plug directly into your vehicle's existing factory tow package, it means no more struggling with cutting or splicing wires. Just locate the connection point behind your rear bumper, plug in, and you're good to go—a fast, no-fuss solution for anyone needing a quick, reliable connection.

Reliable Power On-Demand: Powered Converter

Get consistent power for your trailer's signal lights with the built-in powered converter. This feature ensures that you can confidently use your trailer without worrying about insufficient power for your stop, turn, and tail lights. With a maximum amperage of 7.5 amps per circuit, your trailer lights will shine bright and clear, ensuring safety on the road.

Stay in Control: 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector

For those who need a versatile trailer connection, the 4-pole flat trailer connector is your go-to. It provides a standard connection that supports most trailer applications, making it ideal whether you're hauling a small boat or a utility trailer. With adapters for 5-pole, 6-pole, and 7-pole (sold separately), it's ready to meet various towing needs.

Conquer Corrosion: Durable 16-Gauge Bonded Wire

This wiring harness is constructed from high-quality 16-gauge bonded wire that resists wear and tear from the elements. By using a small dab of grease on the connections, you can further protect against corrosion, ensuring longevity and reliability every time you tow.

Seamless Under-Bumper Storage: Discreet Design

After installing, the 4-way connector stows neatly beneath your vehicle near the trailer hitch, out of sight and protected from damage. This thoughtful design keeps your access point tidy and free from clutter, making it easy to find and connect when you need it while maintaining a clean look when you don't.

Specs

Maximum Amperage

  • Stop/turn lights: 7.5 amps per circuit
  • Tail lights: 7.5 amps per circuit

Warranty

  • 1-Year limited warranty

Note

Installation requires you to plug into your vehicle's factory tow package wiring harness, located behind the rear bumper, on the driver's side. After plugging in, open your fuse box and follow the instructions to locate the fuse position and insert the included relays. The 4-way flat connector should be stowed beneath your vehicle, near the trailer hitch, and a mounting bracket is recommended for security. It is also advised to use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections to help prevent corrosion.

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-One connector plugs directly into OEM tow package harness - no cutting, splicing or tapping required.

I bought for a 2025 Equinox the harness wasn't right they had the six prong and I needed the 4 prong to plug into the car so I have to wait for that to be made and come in as it's to newer of a car yet for that. The hitch is also lower than I anticipated and thought it was going to be on the bumper where there is a hitch cutout. Everything else fit though



by:
2018 Chevrolet Equinox

I was pleased it was delivered one earlier than target date and wrapped nicely in good quality and with detailed instruction guides. Installation was easy. It kindly provided straps to tie hanging wires to somewhere safe. Once installation was complete, I was pleased the lighting works for my license plate holder whichg will be attached to my bike rack or on bike for my bike trip to Virginia Beach. Thanks to eTrailer team!

This is my go to site for roof racks and trailer products! Delivered on time and installation videos are super helpful.

Extra heavy duty on the hitch but will. Work great



by:

My 2019 Terrain did not come equipped with the factory trailer package, so I had anticipated having to splice into individual wires for tail lights, brake and turn signals. However, the etrailer wiring harness was literally plug and play. There was one section in the instructions that required removal of an interior panel on the left side of the rear luggage area, to check for the presence of a relay on a circuit board. Etrailer included that relay if needed, but in my case, the appropriate relay was there, so no additional relay was required. I use a small bungie cord to keep the flat four connector pulled up inside the bumper cover, when not using the hitch. The trailer hitch and wiring harness have worked well for the year since installation, so I'm a happy camper.

It's a wiring harness! Excellent review for the great videos which are accurate and complete. Actually, helpful. No long preamble trying to be entertaining and no appeal to smash the subscribe button.



by:

Plug in play harness. I watch the video from etrailer on this harness install. I check my vehicle to insure it had factory installed connector. Which my vehicle had l installed 118285 before installing the draw-tite hitch number 76419. I used a trailer light circuit tester. I have shared pictures of the circuit being tested the tool used and the vehicle connector that has to be removed.
Hope this helps you



by:

The video was perfect. Found the wire harness tucked behind bumper. I would have never figured out the release clip with out the video help. Plug and play. My 2018 Terrain had 1 big relay already installed in K3 so mine was quick. I bought the tester to verify install. New hitch and wiring installed 1 hour and 20 minutes. Having the tool sizes listed helped having next to me on the ground while installing. About 11 inch height so I am getting a riser to make trailer level. Thank you etrailer.com for your customer service.

This Wire Harness fit perfectly on the 2020 Chevy Equinox.It was like plug and play easy after mounting with a 4 pole flat mount.



by:
2022 Chevrolet Equinox

The Hitch was heavy and well built and installing it was relatively easy and took very little time.

Installed on '23 Equinox- easy to install. Excellent alternative if OEM kit is not available, wish there was an optional connector bracket for OEM hitch....hint hint :-)

Product is great. Although installing on my GMC Terrain was a challenge.

2020 Chevrolet Equinox

Items purchased, Draw-tite trailer hitch and Tekonsha wiring kit for our 2020 Equinox. This was my first encounter with etrailer, and I must say I was impressed. From the initial order placement, I knew where my order was while in route and exactly when it would arrive. I had previously watched the installation videos on both products and they could not have been clearer. Total time from opening boxes, to tools put away was less than 2 hours. All parts are of quality materials and fitment along with reasonable prices. While this may have been my first experience with etrailer, it certainly will not be my last. Thanks to all for making everything go smoothly.



by:

1 year later I used it more than 15 times and it works great, easy install took me less than 5 min



by:
2020 GMC Terrain

Videos extremely helpful.Product was all and even more than expected. The hitch went on without a HITCH, Sorry, couldn't help it. this is how it turned out. would buy again in a heart beat. Thanks



by:

Didn't even have to take off a tail light. The car came with a dummy plug on it that I had to take off by sliding the red plastic away from the wired side then pressing the black part in the middle of the red slide while pulling off the connector. Wam Bam plugged in my new harness to that, and I got lights. Couldn't be easier. They shipped a couple of relays to but my trailer has LED so they are not necessary which is good cause my fuse block had a space but did not has connectors for it.
NOTE, the connector under the bumper is hard to get to so if you are unfamiliar with this kind of plug try taking one off under the hood that is easier to get too

  • Wiring Harness Options For 2019 Chevy Equinox LT 1.5 AWD
    Hello Kev, thanks for reaching out. We do have wiring harness options for your 2019 Chevy Equinox. If you already have the factory tow package, you can use a plug and play harness like the Tekonsha # 118285. This plugs into the OEM tow connector and does not require running a wire to the battery, since that connection would already be present. If you do not have the tow package, you will need to use the Tekonsha # 118750 instead. This plugs in behind the tail lights and does require running...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for Towing With 2023 GMC Terrain
    I recommend the etrailer # e59ZR for your 2023 GMC Terrain. This is a custom fit Class III hitch with a 2" receiver. What sets it apart from other options is the matte black powder coat finish. This gives it more of an OEM look and does a better job hiding dirt and scratches when compared to a glossy finish. Since you will be towing you will also need wiring. If you have the factory tow package you need the # 118285 and if you don't have the tow package you can use the # C59496. Both will...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver and 4-Way Vehicle Wiring Harness For a 2024 GMC Terrain
    I recommend our etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e59ZR for our 2024 GMC Terrain. Our receiver has the more popular 2" opening and a matte black finish which I feel gives a cleaner factory appearance. The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118285 is going to give you a 4-way flat connector. This is the connector most commonly found on small utility and boat trailers. It will also allow you to have Auxiliary Lights # C53201 for hitch mounted accessories.

  • Recommended Trailer Wire Harness For A 2024 Chevy Equinox Premier
    Hey John, The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C94FR is listed as a fit for all 2024 Chevy Equinox models, as long as they have the factory tow package for the harness to plug into. This connector is hidden in the rear bumper on the driver's side and will require you to just remove a couple of Torx T15 screws to give yourself some wiggle room with the fascia so you can get your hands on it. I would check to see if you have this factory connector...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for Towing With 2022 GMC Terrain SLE
    For your 2022 GMC Terrain SLE I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C77FR. This is a Class III hitch with a maximum gross trailer weight of 4,500 lbs and tongue weight of 675 lbs. It features a 2" receiver and a concealed cross tube so you will only see the receiver hanging down under the rear bumper. This hitch has a gloss black powder coat finish and a limited lifetime warranty. For wiring, the most reliable wiring harness is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2022 GMC Terrain that Will Allow the Lift Gate Feature to Work
    The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver item # e59ZR is the only hitch available for the 2022 GMC Terrain Denali that will allow you to use the hands free liftgate feature. However, it will be slightly harder to use than before. You will need to place your foot on either side of the 2" receiver and it can sometimes take a bit longer for the sensor to pickup the motion. The etrailer hitch item # e59ZR is custom fit and bolts to your Terrain with included hardware. I like this hitch because...

  • Will The Curt Class 3 Trailer Hitch And Kuat NV 2.0 Both Be Compatible With A 2023 Chevy Equinox LT
    The Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # NV22G is designed to fit 2" hitches so you would be good to go with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C77FR on your 2023 Chevy Equinox LT. I've attached a video below where Aiden will show you the NV on the back of a 2023 Chevy Equinox so you can get a better idea on clearances with your specific vehicle, as well as John's installation video of the trailer hitch. The installation is really easy so you could do this yourself if you have a torque wrench...

  • Do I Need a Mounting Bracket to Install a 4-Way Connector on a 2020 Chevy Equinox Hitch?
    You will need to purchase a separate bracket. I looked at our inventory and checked with our vendors. It looks like all the hitches for a 2020 Chevy Equinox don't have that built in tab. You'll want to use the No-Drill Mount Bracket item # 18136 and the item # C42CR to secure the Tekonsha item # 118285 connector to your hitch. This will put it in an easy to reach spot and prevent the risk of it falling onto the road. The best hitch for your Equinox is the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C77FR....
