Installation
This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side interior trim panels in your rear cargo area.
It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.
A tail light converter is built into this T-connector. Because most trailers run on a two-wire system - wherein the brake and turn signals are carried on one wire - the separate brake and turn signals from your vehicle's three-wire system need to be combined so they are compatible with the wiring system of the trailer. This converter combines 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.
Curt builds each tail light converter using surface-mount technology (SMT). This method of construction involves soldering electronic components directly to the surface of a printed circuit board. SMT eliminates the need for leads, which are used in older through-hole technology. The result is a circuit board that is smaller yet provides more routing area and that offers superior performance, reliability and durability.
Circuit boards constructed using SMT have been shown to perform better under rough conditions with excessive vibration than those made using the through-hole method. And where would vibration be more likely to occur than in towing applications? Curt converters also produce less heat, leading to increased durability and longer life. In addition, lower levels of resistance ensure better performance, especially for parts that operate at higher frequencies.
Each Curt circuit board is made using high-quality components that are pieced together in the most technologically savvy fashion, leading to greater predictability and reliability in functioning.

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly into existing wiring - no cutting, splicing or tapping required. Converter is made using SMT to ensure superior performance.It was the easiest wiring any trailer that I have ever done. Didn't have to cut or splice any wires, just unplug tail light wires and plug in the wiring harness. It took me 10 minutes for complete installation.
Let's put it this way , my 8 year old son new where to connect wires ! I choose to make to perminate through nock out is right above center of hitch, here's some pictures
This made everything very easy. I was worried there wouldn't be enough length to hide it all, but the whole thing was perfect!
The harness was very easy to hook up
This product Item: C55307 literally took me 18minutes and 48seconds to install on my 2002 Toyota RAV4. I opened the back door, set my trim removal tools, cordless drill and 12v DC circuit tester on the ground. I removed my phone from my back pocket and started the timer. I removed the trim as per the video. Installed the wiring kit as directed. Tested each circuit as suggested before reinstalling the trim. Reinstalled the trim and closed the back door 18m 48s. etrailer has my business for sure. Top notch outfit.
The instructions were grossly inadequate to comfortably install the wire harness. Because I am experienced in automotive electrics I will figure it out. The harness appears well thought out and will avoid taps, but the instructions as to how to get behind the taillights to connect them in were a puzzle.
Rachael H - 08/07/2019I received my trailer hitch and wiring harness as predicted by the shipping estimates for free shipping. The installation of both hitch and wiring harness was very simple. Hitch installed in 20 minutes and harness 30 minutes. Had hooked up to my trailer and on the road with in ~hour. Thanks for the quality product!
Connector was great and took 15 minutes to hook up.
Installed this weekend. Really simple. Plug and play. Very pleased with the quality. Will work just great for my trailer needs. Highly recommend Curt.
Paul - 04/10/2018Installation when smooth an easy in our RAV4, a snap as they say. The hardest part was partially taking out the rear quarter panels to access the factory wiring. I would advise NOT sticking down the black distribution block with the two sided tape until you have finally placed and secured the wiring.
The web page was so easy to navigate even for a senior I was able to be sure I got the right wiring harness made for my RAV4. Made it a simple install and all the lights work perfect. Thanks for helping me get it right the first time.
I really appreciate the effective way everything has been thought out for the customer. From the video to how the product is packaged. I ordered this wiring kit along with the tow bar. Both items arrived at the same time. The tow bar took me 14 minutes to install (no power or pneumatic tools). The wiring kit took me about 15 minutes as well. I truley appreciate finding this package at a good price. I will definately be recommending etrailer.
Excellent product fit like a glove I am 70 years old and installed this curt hitch by myself In about 30 mins, the curt wiring harness took longer because I wanted to make sure I didn’t pinch any wires.. but was a pleasure to complete, no problems.. will be able to now pull a small yard trailer..
Everyone was very helpful and the hitch arrived in a very timely manner. I found it very easy to install. I still have to tackle the wiring harness. So far I am very satisfied.
Made instaLlation simple. Thanks
This product works great, and was relatively simple to install. It is a pleasure to find a company whose people take such pride in their products and services that my personal satisfaction is assured. My thanks to everyone at etrailer.com. You have gained a permanent customer.
Plug and play wire harness, but the wires are on the short side. It would have been nice if there was another 1' to 2' of wires to cross from the passenger side to the driver side (that would have helped , but I was still able to make it work).
Much easier to install than expected and it works well. Would recommend.
The ordering online and delivery was su per
completely satisfied with the product. the order process was easy and the delivery time was short. simple installation with the instructions. These folks are professional.
Fits and works great after a year if service. Toyota us a little harder to install than the Subaru one I had before, but not bad. That is on Toyota, not Curt. Would certainly recommend.
Product great with simple instructions true to advertisement.
Angie - 05/19/2017This product was crap after it was installed it just kept blowing fuses in the car it never works right it had to be uninstalled and a better one put in
Product worked as advertised, easily installed once the cosmetic panels were out of the way.
It's been reliable and was easy to install.....delivery timing was excellent
