Installation of Tekonsha T-One Connector

This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side tail lights. You will have to remove some bumper fascia, interior paneling, vent covers, and the tail light assemblies to access this harness. Once you've plugged in the T-connector, run the body harness up to your car battery and connect the wires per the included instructions.


T-One Connection Location Points Behind Tail Lights

Once installation is complete, the 7-way connector will be stowed beneath your vehicle, near the trailer hitch. A mounting bracket (sold separately) is recommended to keep the connector secure.


It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 7-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.


ModuLite Powered Tail Light Converter

A ModuLite power module is built into this T-One connector. Because your vehicle runs on a multiplex wiring system, the wiring needs to be converted to be 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.


Installation of Tekonsha Brake Controller Adapter

This adapter hardwires to the body harness that is included in this kit. Just connect the black wire from the brake controller adapter to your car battery, and connect the white wire to a suitable ground. The remaining wires can then be easily spliced into the body harness with the included butt connectors.


This adapter is designed to plug directly into your electric brake controller. Because the harness does not hardwire to your controller, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time and securely stow it away.

Poor design. Wires are random connected at the tail lights. Had to re pin my self, poor installation instruction , 7pin connector on instruction is wrong you need to find on your own which pattern to install them. Not worth the money, this is not plug and play.

  • Looking For Brake Controller For 2024 Mercedes Bens Sprinter 3500 RWD
    Hello Kent, thanks for reaching out. Do you already have a 7-way plug on the back of your sprinter? If not, you can use the Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK82VR to add one. This kit includes everything you need to add a 7-way including all of the wires for a brake controller. For the controller what I recommend is the Tekonsha P3 # 90195. It has a manual override slider on the bottom which is definitely something you will want to have. Overall it is just our most reliable...

  • What is the Best Hitch for a 2023 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 w/ Factory Step Bumper?
    Thanks for the pictures! The best hitch for your 2023 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 is the etrailer item # e82TR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Mercedes with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 5,000 lbs towing capacity and a 500 lbs maximum tongue weight that can be increased to 7,500 lbs and 750 lbs when used with a weight distribution system. The reason the etrailer item # e82TR is the best hitch is because of its ease of installation...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For 2020 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 Long Wheelbase Standard Bumper
    As long as your 2020 Sprinter 2500 with the 170 inch wheelbase and standard bumper isn't a passenger van and the frame members do NOT measure 30-3/8 inches apart measured outside of frame to outside of frame, the Curt Class III hitch, part # C13388 will fit perfectly. If you have the passenger version, you'll want to use the Draw-Tite # 75549 instead. If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like part # TK82VR for a 4 pin connector or # TK22115 for...

  • Will etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit a 2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 With Factory Step Bumper
    Yes, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e82TR will fit your 2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 with the factory step bumper. I actually like this because it has a matte black finish as opposed to the other options that have a glossy black finish. The matte black blends in a little better and is more durable so it's an all around plus with this hitch installed. To tow a trailer you also need the Wiring Kit # TK82VR and then swap out the 7-Way with the Hopkins Adapter # 30955 so you have...

  • What is the Best Draw-tite Class III Trailer Hitch For 2023 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD?
    Congrats on your new Sprinter! The Draw-Tite # 75601 you'd looked at is the best Class III Trailer hitch for your 2023 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD if you HAVE the factory step bumper, or # 75549 if you do NOT have the factory step bumper. If you're going to be towing with your Sprinter you'll also want to pick up a wiring harness # TK82VR, and a ball mount kit # 989900. I included install videos for both hitches mentioned for you to check out.

  • Recommended Wiring and Brake Controller for a 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500
    Glad to hear you've been getting some good use out of your Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75549! I recommend using a brake controller with the least invasive installation for the intricate OEM wiring on your 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500. For that you need the Tekonsha # TK82VR which will have everything you need to install a 7-Way connector that carries all of the functions you need for the Curt Echo # C51180 brake controller. The Echo is a unique controller that simply...

  • Parts Needed To Tow a Trailer With 6-Pin Connector Behind a 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
    It sounds like you are needing to add a 6-Pin Connector # PK12720 on your 2019 Mercedes Benz Sprinter for hauling a trailer. For this you will need either a 4-Way # C45FV with our Install Kit # ETBC6 or the 7-Way Kit # TK82VR along with a 7 to 6 Way Adapter # 47549. If your trailer has electric brakes you will also need a Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR. This will connect to the 6-pin install kit using the Universal Harness # RED69FR or the Tekonsha 7-way kit above using...

  • Trailer Hitch for 2019 Sprinter 2500, 144"WB, and Std. Bumper
    Yes, the Draw-Tite # 75549 hitch you referenced will fit your 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 with 144" wheelbase, standard rear bumper, and frame measuring 39-1/4" outside dimension. This installation will not require you to drill any holes and will not interfere with your spare. If you will be towing you need a tow ball and ball mount. Without knowing the offset between the trailer and tow vehicle I can't recommend a specific item, but, I have supplied a link to an FAQ below regarding...

  • Does the Exhaust Have to be Modified to Install the etrailer Hitch e82TR on a 2021 MB Sprinter 2500?
    No, you do not Viktor! The etrailer Trailer Hitch item # e82TR does not require modification of the exhaust when installing it on the 2021 Sprinter 2500. The hitch mounts right next to the muffler. Please note that the etrailer hitch item # e82TR is specifically designed for the Sprinter's that have the factory step bumper. If yours has the standard bumper you'll need the etrailer item # e76AR. If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # TK82VR and a ball...
