Installation

This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's factory tow package wiring harness. The connection point for the 7-way harness is located behind the rear bumper. The converter plugs into the factory wiring harness in your rear cargo area, on the driver's side. You will have to remove the floor covers, cargo trays, and some interior paneling to access this harness. Once you've plugged in the connector, insert the included fuses into your fuse panel as indicated in the instructions.


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 most trailers run on a 2-wire system - wherein the brake and turn signals are carried on 1 wire - the separate brake and turn signals from your vehicle's 3-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 bypasses the electrical routes that are used by a basic wiring harness, there is virtually no draw on your tail light circuits.

Easy plug and play with plenty of wire to get down to the 7 way. I was able to attach to a factory ground like one of the videos showed. It's been installed for one year with no issues.

2019 Honda Passport

Easy installation, same as the factory factory installation documentation and photos. Recommend watching the 2019 installation on the etrailer website at My 2023 Passport had a large bolt on the frame of the cubby box rear floor support, so I used it for the ground wire. I also wanted easy access to the fuse if needed without removing the cubby box so I mounted the module on the driver side rear internal reinforcement where the storage box is. Which may for easy installation with no drilling, used the double sided tape and zip ties. Now if I need to check the fuse all I have to do is remove the storage box. Hope I never have to but you never now. The one time I had this problem prior on another vehicle it was caused by bad trailer wiring on a back road at night and raining.



by:

Video installation instructions were extremely helpful. Everything was plug and play once one had gained access to the hidden factory connectors.



by:

Wiring kit is good and almost installed as expected. This is not etrailer’s fault but the self tapping screw supplied for the ground wire had a smaller head than the hole in the wire end attachment. Of course I did not have a larger self tapping screw or a washer that would fit which necessitated a trip to get a washer that would work.

Honda Passport

This is a very high quality harness. Very easy to install, came with every thing you need. Installed this on a new 2020 Honda Passport. Took me about 30 minutes to install and that was taking my time. I ordered this with the receiver hitch and the bracket for the 7-pin plug that came with the harness. Everything was shipped for free and arrived in 4 days. Anyone with basic tools and knowledge can install this. Ordering this and installing it myself saved me over $1,300 compared to letting the dealership do it. I would highly recommend this to anyone.



by:

The harness was pretty easy to install once you get the body panels off. Its plug and play so no wires to cut and splice. The only thing that happened was after 6 months I lost lights on the left side of my trailer. I contacted customer service and they told me chech the wiring before and after the control box to make sure it wasnt the car. Sure enough, it was the control box. Customer service resolved the issue immediately by sending me a new one. etrailer is second to none.




by:

The original order for the Curt custom fit harness was placed after several discussions with etrailer.com but despite assurances, it only partially worked and is being returned this week. After several conversations with Shanna S. at etrailer.com, I ordered the better Tekonsha trailer harness and it works perfectly. Had I talked to her first, it would have saved both of us much time and expense.



by:

I purchased a hitch and this wiring harness for a 2019 Honda Passport. Delivery was fast and both products fit perfectly with easy install. Customer service at etrailer is the best I've ever dealt with. I highly recommend to anyone looking for accessories.



by:

With the right components, tools and a few [online] videos, installing this wiring harness was a piece of cake.

I am very impressed with the customer support we received from etrailer. Nicole, who took the order, was fantastic and reassuring; she even checked stock while I was on the phone to make sure the hitch and wiring we needed was in stock and available. We were against a tight timeline and paid for expedited shipping - but the estimated delivery date was only a day before our departure. We received an email our hitch and wiring harness were shipped in less than 24 hours, and both came safely packaged day later, giving us plenty of time to install it before our trip. So pleased! Thank you etraler.com.



by:

Very well built kit and easy to install and all the connectors fit perfectly. The runner grommet worked very well transitioning from inside to outside. Be sure to also order a mounting bracket for the 7-pin plug. I didn’t and had to get one from the local hardware store.



by:

Good wire harness. The YouTube Etrailer video and the paper directions are slightly different. Look at both. Bought a bracket and was short 2 screws. Etrailer did reimburse me the difference in the price change within the 30 days of the sale. Thank you

Multiple parts missing from order and very difficult to speak with a person when calling.
Never had issues with etrailer in the past.

Large accessible buttons and an LCD display make this very easy to use, even for first time towers. This will also be very easy to install. Provided your vehicle does have the factory tow package, you can use the plug and play pigtail # 3070-P. Just mount the controller and plug in. It really is that easy.

  • Which Brake Controller and 7-Way Trailer Connector for 2022 Honda Passport
    I'd be happy to help with that! For a brake controller, the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty you'd looked at, part # RED24FR would be an outstanding choice. The body of the controller installs under the dash where it's out of sight (also where you won't bang your knee on it). You'd adjust the controller via the control knob, which can be mounted anywhere within the driver's reach. An unused switch knockout on the dash or console is the perfect spot for installing the knob. If you don't have a switch...

    Both the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13421 and Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76290 will have the cross tube that sits behind the removable cover on your 2022 Honda Passport, but the receiver tube itself will still be exposed. This does save you from having to remove the panel and store it when you are needing to use the receiver.

  • Does the Draw-tite Hitch for Honda Passports 76290 Come with a Wiring Harness
    I have a solution for you, but the Draw-Tite # 76290 does not come with wiring; this is fairly commonplace since not everyone will need a trailer wiring harness with their hitch. With that said, I recommend using the Curt T-Connector # C56291, which is a confirmed fit on the 2019-2021 Honda Passport (the same as the Draw-Tite 76290). This provides you with a 4 way trailer connector that has a powered converter to help protect your vehicle's electronics from shorts and backfeeds on the...

    Neither the Curt # C13421 or Draw-Tite # 76290 trailer hitch receivers you were looking at for your 2021 Honda Passport will mount through the bumper like the factory hitch would. These receivers mount just under the bumper and leave just the receiver itself visible once installed. If you are alright with that then I recommend going with the # C13421 as the absolute max possible towing capacity of your Passport based on its options is 5,000lbs which lines up with the 750lb tongue weight...

It is a quick and easy bolt on application as well, so no drilling or anything. I included an install video for you to check out as well.

I've confirmed with the manufacturer that this bracket is designed for electrical connections to be mounted to the frame of the hitch, such as the one for the 7-way that is included in the Tekonsha T-One # 118291.

    A taillight converter combines 3 circuits, left turn signal, right turn signal and brake lamps into two circuits. Once installed, you'll have two circuits; left turn combined with brake lamp and right turn combined with brake lamp. This is necessary because the trailer uses a 2 wire system instead of the 3 wire system used on the tow vehicle. I'd recommend the Tekonsha # 118291. The Passport is prewired for a brake controller so installation will be a plug and play proposition. For a fairly...
