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.
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.

2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
I used this wiring harness on my 2014 Sprinter. The instructions for this product was spot on, and i very much liked how it was plug and play, no wire splicing. The harness plugged right into the factory harness just like it came from the factory. It did take a little bit on my part fishing the wires thru the cavity wall supports and keeping it neat and organized, but overall 5 stars. Sorry, i forgot to take pics.
Thanks etrailer

Great, no issues.

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
Best sprinter wiring kit. Do yourself a favor and save time and hassle with this kit. Also seems much better at blocking corrosion to sensitive areas (than diy) as you don't need to splice anything outside of the vehicle.

Mercedes-Benz
Much less expensive than Mercedes part, which didn’t work and had no instructions. Easy but tedious installation. Still working fine though I prefer to leave the end connector inside the van except when in use to avoid corrosion.

See what our Experts say about this Tekonsha Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring
- 7-Way Trailer Wiring Kit for 2015 Mercedes-Benz SprinterYes, the Tekonsha 7-way kit part # TK22115 is exactly what you need. It is a 7-way kit designed to fit your 2015 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter that did not have the factory connector. This is what you'd need for a new install that didn't have any trailer wiring currently.

Since Sprinters are offered in more than one wheelbase length this kit is made to work with all of them, even the 170-inch extended version. I confirmed this with my contact at Tekonsha. This kit includes the brake controller wiring adapter needed to install one of the excellent Tekonsha trailer brake controllers such...

I have included a link to a video that may help. It is on a slightly older Sprinter but can be used as a guide. The 2006 to 2018 are part of the same generation. If the van has a third brake light (CHMSL: center high mount stop lamp) and it is the only thing on that fuse you could use it to attach to the red brake controller wire. The white ground...

This bracket will install to the left of the receiver opening on your Draw-Tite hitch item # 75549 on the steel tab that is on the frame of the hitch receiver. This will allow you to attach your Tekonsha 7-Way connector item # TK22115 directly to your hitch receiver for easy access.

view full answer... - Is There a Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2017 Mercedes Sprinter 2500 That Has Both 4 and 7-WaysThe Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness part # TK22115 is a great option for a 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500. It as you noted has a 7-way plug but there isn't a complete harness with both 4 and 7-way plugs as is. Therefore, I suggest just adding the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket part # HM40975 which also comes with a bracket that you'll need.

This is a custom fit Class III hitch with a 2" receiver. IT has a maximum gross trailer weight of 6,000 lbs and tongue weight of 600 lbs. It features a black powder coat finish and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. For wiring, you have two good options depending on what you need. The first is the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch for 2019 Sprinter 2500, 144"WB, and Std. BumperYes, 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...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch, Wiring, and Brake Controller Recommendation for 2016 Mercedes Sprinter 2500Yes, for your 2016 Mercedes Benz Sprinter 2500 the Draw Tite hitch part # 75549 is a fit and my recommendation for your application as it has the capacity you need and installs easily as well. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well. To install a 7-way all you need is the # TK22115 and then the easiest solution for a brake controller is the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180 which basically just plugs into an active 7-way and once synced to your smart phone is ready...

We do not have an adapter to go between that plug and a 7-way connector. However you can create your own 7-way jack for your trailer to plug into. You will need to install a Tekonsha # TK22115 wiring harness that includes the 7-way connector for the back of your Sprinter. If you will be towing a trailer with brakes, you will additionally need the Tekonsha # 90195 brake controller. This installs...

- Best Way to go From 4-Way to 7-Way for 2017 Mercedes Sprinter 2500If the travel trailer with a 7-way does not have brakes the easy solution is the # 37185 which would plug right into your current 4-way and all of the lighting circuits would be active. If instead you did have trailer brakes you'd want to use the # ETBC7 which comes with brake controller wiring needed as well as the same adapter of the # 37185. The 7-way kit part # TK22115 which is custom fit for you vehicle essentially is the same setup as a 4-way like you have converted to a 7-way with...

As long as the 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 is a 170 or 144 inch wheel base, standard bumper and is not a passenger van this hitch is confirmed to fit without removing the spare tire. If you need wiring, I recommend Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness w Brake Controller Adapter part # TK22115 because it is the easiest way to install...

Keep in mind this hitch will only fit if your van is the cargo version, and not a passenger van. If you will be towing a trailer with your Sprinter then you will also need a vehicle wiring harness # 118649...

While we have not had a chance to install both of these hitches yet, when we measured these hitches we found that from the center of the upper mounting hole to the bottom of the hitch on the Draw-Tite # 75549 measured 12-1/4" where the Curt # C13388 measured 11" which you can see in these diagrams, meaning the Curt hitch will sit closer to your bumper and give you better ground...

- Van build and Recommended Receiver Hitch for 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500If your 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 has the factory step bumper, I suggest the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 13358. If you have the standard bumper, then the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C13388. Both of these are Class III hitches that are fully welded in their construction and have received an excellent powder coated finish. They are a bolt-on installation and each will fit the long or short wheel base version, type bumper that is in place is the deciding factor for over the...

If your 2020 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 did not come with the factory towing package, the Tow-Pro Classic will need to be hardwired in. Additionally, the RJ45 cable only is available in the 3ft length that comes with the unit. This is a standard RJ45 network cable...

If you have the passenger version, you'll want to use the Draw-Tite # 75549 instead.

The connector to install the controller is located under the driver's seat as shown in the provided photo.

For a large and very durable hitch mounted step, I'd highly recommend something like the Carr Mega Step, part # CARR190011 for silver or # CARR190011B for black. The step has a whopping 500 lb weight capacity, can can fold up when it's not needed. I'd also highly recommend a hitch lock like # e98882 to prevent...
