Features to know about

Effortless Trailer Connection: No Cutting or Splicing Required

Installing a trailer connector can be daunting, especially when you're faced with a complex wiring job. With the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness, cutting, splicing, or tapping into your vehicle's wires is a thing of the past. Simply plug into the OEM tow package port located behind your rear bumper, and you're ready to hit the road with a reliable 4-way flat trailer connector.

Precision Custom Fit: Tailored for Your Vehicle

Struggling to find a wiring harness that fits perfectly with your factory setup? This Curt T-Connector is custom designed to integrate seamlessly with vehicles equipped with a factory tow package. It's made to ensure a precise fit, bringing peace of mind knowing that it aligns perfectly with your factory-installed systems without any hassle.

Versatile Compatibility: Adapts to Multiple Trailer Types

Whether you're hauling a small utility trailer or a larger camper, versatility is key. This harness isn't just limited to 4-way connectors; it works with 5-pole, 6-pole, and 7-pole adapters, covering a wide array of towing needs. Just plug what you need for your specific trailer and unleash the full towing potential of your vehicle.

Durable Long-term Performance: Dust Cap and Corrosion Resistance

Weather elements can wreak havoc on electrical connections, but not with this harness. It comes equipped with a dust cap that protects your 4-way flat connector, combined with a recommendation to use a little grease on connections to ward off corrosion. This ensures long-lasting, optimal performance regardless of how rough the roads or weather get.

Simple Access and Maintenance: Convenient Installation and Stowage

Say goodbye to tangled wires and unsightly installations. Once you've plugged in, the connector can be securely stowed beneath your vehicle, near the trailer hitch. The use of an optional mounting bracket ensures a tidy, damage-free setup. This thoughtful design keeps your wiring protected, accessible, and discreetly in place whenever you need it.

Plug and play. Works perfectly. No addional wiring needed for my 2022 Lexus RX459h.



by:
2015 LexusRX 350

Shipping was prompt and extremely well packaged. I received timely updates on the progress of my order (which was much appreciated as I needed this an upcoming trip). Both the recommended hitch and wiring harness were a perfect fit. The installation video and PDF were informative and accurate, making the installation stress free and within the estimated timeframe. One hint: if working alone, a floor jack to support the hitch works as well as another set of hands.

This was my second order from E-trailer. Their products and support are excellent.



by:

Great company and great products. Ordering was easy, shipping was fast and products were exactly as expected.



by:

When it comes to quick, slick, and easy DIY relative to a trailer hitch wiring harness for trailer lights, this puppy is the ticket! I am not a very technically adept individual and so having the simplicity that this plug-and-play harness offers is HUGE!



by:
2010 Lexus RX 450h

Literally cannot get simpler to install than this. Luckily, my 2010 Lexus Rx450H was set up with the factory tow package (and luckily I kept the window sticker to verify that!), so once the trim panel below the bumper is removed, the electrical connection is on the driver's side frame rail, capped. Remove cap, plug in the wiring harness, zip tie to the cross bar of the hitch, you're done. Shipping was super fast--ordered on Wednesday 6-14-17, scheduled for arrival 6-19-17, arrived late morning 6-17-17. Thank you!

I'm using it to tow troop equipment and canoe trailers for my son's Boy Scout events.



by:

Took my local independent garage only 45~ minutes to Completely install and wire. The 6" cut of the underneath plastic is about 8"-12" depending on car FYI. Good assistance via phone and a perfect recommendation. Nice quality hitch! Wiring is plug and play!



by:

Great product, excellent support. Very easy install in 25 minutes. Install directions very good. Holes are slotted in hitch, would recommend starting all bolts leaving bolts loose, then center hitch by bumping with wooden block before tightening. Then torque to spec.



by:
2015 LexusRX 350

As easy as all the reviews said it would be. Took a little while to get new bolts started that replaced OE self-tapping bolts. But it all lined up and gave a professional finished look when completed. Now I'm ready to help my friend install the hitch on his wife's RX. Won't hesitate to recommend etrailer.com to all in the future.



by:

Worked great. Connected right up to the OEM plug for easy install. Perfect length to run to hitch receiver

Super easy to install especially if you have the tow prep package on your car. The bracket makes the look more professional.

Fits perfectly ... installed in less than an hour with a second set of hands from my son. And the genesis that snapped right in to the prewired rx350 tow wiring package .... all at 1/3 of the price the Lexus dealer was going to charge !!

All I can say is, thanks etrailer for having the right product for the Job!! Product as advertised! Installation was a breeze taking only 45 minutes. I did the installation without raising the vehicle up off the ground. As a side note, the Lexus dealer wanted over $700 for doing the same job, no surprise there..

The shipping was a little slow. All my other packages came 2 days earlier.

WOW. Fast shipping and packaged well. Great video to assist if needed. I made a call to verify that it fit my car. Very quick phone pick-up. Very pleasant and helpful.
The hitch is barely noticeable.
I give this place a 10.



by:

Very happy with my etrailer purchase. The dealership wanted to charge $1,700.00 to install my hitch. Etrailer saved me significantly without any hassles. I was able to purchase and have my mechanic install a hitch for 1/3 of the dealership cost.

  • Trailer Wiring for 2014 Lexus RX350 Without Factory Tow Package
    Both the 2012 and 2014 model years of the Lexus RX 350 are part of the vehicle's third generation, spanning 2008 through 2015 model years. Despite this, wiring harness fits are not shared. My contact at Tow Ready suggested you check for a wiring connector right behind the rear bumper. Even though you do not have the tow package this connector may still be there. (Exactly what is included in a tow package can vary from year to year and model to model.) If so you can use # 56083 from Curt....

  • Parts Needed to Install 7-Way and Brake Controller on 2018 Lexus RX 450h
    Hey Jeff, we can help install a 7-way on your 2018 Lexus RX 450h but you will have to start with a 4-way like the part # 56083 as there isn't a 7-way kit custom fit for your vehicle. So once you have the 4-way installed you would need to convert it to a 7-way with the part # 37185. Unless your trailer has brakes then you would also need a brake controller like the p2 part # 90885 and the 7-way adapter part # ETBC7 instead.

    The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75540 has been successfully installed on other 2022 Lexus RX 350 F-Sports with the kick sensor for the rear lift gate. Do note that the receiver tube will limit the range and function of the kick sensor and you may no longer be able to use the function.

  • Troubleshooting Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness 56083 On 2021 Lexus RX 350 Not Having Power
    The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package # 56083 requires your 2021 Lexus RX 350 to have the factory tow package which includes a factory installed module to power the trailer lights. Since your harness does not have power I recommend checking that there is a module plugged into the 10 pin connector which may be inside the luggage compartment, on the passenger side below taillight, behind little plastic removable bin. If no module is plugged in you will need...

  • Can The Bumper Fascia On a 2022 Lexus RX 350 Be Trimmed With a Razor Blade?
    It is very difficult and dangerous to try to trim the fascia on your 2022 Lexus RX 350 using a razor blade when you install the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75540. Since you have to trim the rear fascia as well as a couple panels under your Lexus to install the receiver you have a couple options.

    For the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56217 on your 2021 Lexus RX 350L the connectors will be located in a different spot. The 10 pin connector should be located on the passenger side just below the taillight. The 4 pin connector will be underneath the drivers side bumper cover. It may require you to use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package # 56083 to make that connection. The video that I linked below will help you find the 4-pin connector.

  • Correct Trailer Wiring For My 2010 Lexus RX350 With Factory Tow Package
    There is a possibility of 2 different problems. The first is that if you have the front wheel drive model RX350 and the factory tow package, then the Curt Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, part # 56083 is not compatible with your 2010 Lexus RX350. The other possibility is that the plug that you found on your 2010 Lexus RX350 still has the protective cover on the plug. If this is the case, you will just need to remove the protective cover and part # 56083 will plug right in. If you have a front...

  • Will Hidden Hitch by Draw-Tite Fit 2022 Lexus RX 350
    Yes, the Hidden Hitch by Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT58GR will fit your 2022 Lexus RX 350. This has been confirmed from Draw-Tite to fit all 2022 models. What you saw came from before the hitch had been tested and confirmed to fit on your vehicle. If you plan on doing some towing, you will also want the # 56083 for wiring. If you need a ball mount, I recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. This kit has two ball mounts, one with a 3/4" rise or 2" drop and the other with...

  • No Power To Trailer Connector After Installing On 2016 Lexus RX 350
    I called my contact at Curt and asked about the installation of the wiring harness, part # 56083 on your RX 350. First you can call the dealership with the VIN and ask if it has a tow package. If so ask them where the fuses or relays may be. I did some research and was unable to find the relay or fuse location for towing. PTW2993. Turn on the headlights and use the turn signals to make sure you are getting a signal. If you do not show any power on that port, chances are the vehicle...

  • 4-Way Flat Vehicle Wiring Harness For a 2022 Lexus RX 350
    For your 2022 Lexus RX 350 the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # 56083 will connect to the factory tow package with no other parts required. This will give you a 4-way flat trailer connector on your Lexus. Currently the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118255 is only confirmed to fit the 2010-2021 RX 350 that has the factory tow plug. It is possible for your Lexus to have the tow plug but not have came with the factory tow package.

    The definitive way to determine if your 2010 Lexus RX 350 has a factory tow package would be to have a Lexus dealer run the VIN number. They will be able to tell you what options the vehicle has. You could also test the factory connection point for # 56083 or # 118252, see instructions, to see if there is power to the factory plug. However, it may show that it works because it is not under load (a trailer connected). But under load, if you do not have the complete tow package and use #...

    For a 4-way trailer wiring harness for your 2017 Lexus RX350 that has the tow package you would want the part # 56083 which is a confirmed fit.

You could use a universal wiring harness # 119250KIT. This harness has clamp connectors that clamp around the vehicle tail light wiring and sense the current passing through them. This means you will not have to cut and splice into the vehicle wiring! This harness does require a connection to the vehicle battery. I have linked a help...

Or, if it does have the factory tow package, it could be a missing fuse or relay which you could find in the under hood fuse panel or the in cab fuse panel.

  • Does the Draw-Tite Hitch 75540 Fit the F-Sport Model of the 2019 Lexus RX 350?

I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to get it set up. If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # 56083 for the Lexus's with the factory tow package or item # 119250KIT for the vehicle's without the tow package and a ball mount kit item # C45534.

The reason I like this hitch is that the 2" x 2" receiver is completely removable. When you're not towing or using an accessory you won't be able to tell your Lexus has a hitch. The crosstube attaches behind the rear bumper and the receiver attaches behind the bumper as well. To tow with this hitch...

  • Trailer Wiring for 2020 Lexus RX350 That Doesn't have OEM Tow Package
    Hey Shane, for your 2020 Lexus RX 350 that didn't have a factory hitch the trailer wiring that you honestly should have gone with is the part # C56217 which is for the versions of the vehicle that don't have the tow package. While your vehicle has the connector it's not active which is why it's not working as-is. Maybe Lexus dealer could activate the wiring harness but we don't have any info on that.

  • Best Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2013 Lexus RX 350
    All of the hitches available for your 2013 Lexus RX 350 are pretty similar. The biggest difference is that the Curt Hitch part # C13143 can fit the F Sport and non-F Sport models. Because of that I would recommend the Curt hitch. The trailer wiring available for your vehicle, part # 56083, is only available for the models of the vehicle that have the factory tow package. Without the factory tow package use # 118255. I attached videos for you to check out as well.
