  • Provides a 4-way flat trailer connector at the back of your vehicle to power your trailer's signal lights
    • Designed for use with a factory tow package

Installation

This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's factory tow package wiring harness, which is located behind the rear bumper, along the driver's-side frame rail.


Once installation is complete, the 4-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 plug on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.

by:

RX was pre-wired with the package no absolutely no issues at all.



by:

Perfect fit into the vehicle's existing wiring harness. Has about 4' of cord so it will ensure you have plenty of wiring for wherever you want to route it under the car.



by:

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 !!



by:

Easy to plug and play if you have the towing package on your car. Loved that it came with zip ties and a plug cover.



by:

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..



by:

your promised delivery date sucks, product came 2 days late.



by:

I can't believe that it was delivered 2 days after ordering. Already have this installed. Only took 10 minutes of my time!



by:

One year later and it's still going str ong!



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:

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:

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:

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:

I selected this wiring harness for my Lexus RX350 and it works great and it was super simple to install. If you’re looking for an installation project you’re going to look somewhere else, this took about 2 minutes to install and one of those was getting the packaging off. This fit into the wiring of my Lexus with no alterations, just plugged it in and routed the wire to the hitch.
Simple install, works great, I use it every few weeks to pull a small trailer. I’d buy it again



by:

The connector fit perfectly. Took me a couple minutes to install and route the wire.



by:

Fit was perfect. Installation was 6 bolts and no drilling just as advertised. All that is visible from the rear is the receiver tube.



by:

Hitch and harness fit perfectly. Cutting diagram for underside shroud was very helpful as well. Recommend etrailer for custom hitches.



by:

Quick delivery and quality product. The only problem I had was removing the Lexus wiring cap. A half hour of frustration. I know how the cap clip works, but it was not fun working in the cramped space - on my back on a creeper on the garage floor. 5 stars to etrailer, 3 start to Lexus.



by:

Works perfect!

Note1, there was
a connector cover on the SUV side I had to remove first to connect this harness.

Note2 I also had to get a tow light module mounted in trunk for the 2015 Lexus rx350 fwd.



by:

Nice, well built trailer hitch. Hitch and wiring harness fit perfectly. Great customer service.



by:

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

Everything is intact &amp working well after a year



by:

everything was great, fast shipping! great web site! and they kept you up todate on on all of it



by:

very good I would recommend plug bracket and tester as well.



by:

Easy to install once you locate the plug on the undercarriage. The zip ties that are included are a bit too short for the job.



by:

The curt T connector was easy to install and works perfectly. Simple connect and it was ready to go. Thank you e trailer for having this product and making life easy.



by:

Worked fine. I made the mistake of assuming my 2020 RX350 has OEM "Trailer Package" and later discovered I needed an extra component that plugs in near right tail light to complete the circuit (in my case Teknosha 118255) which etrailer no longer stocks. However, etrailer offered to refund my purchase. I opted to keep the T-connector as I had already installed it and it works fine with the power module I bought from a different vendor (that included a T-connector). Overall, I am happy with this product. It does what it is supposed to do.

  • Location Of Curt Wiring Harness Connections For a 2021 Lexus RX 350L Without Tow Package
    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.

  • Wire Gauge On Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness For 2012 Lexus RX 450h
    Hey Rob! The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package # 56083 uses 16 gauge wire. Curt doesn't list this anywhere because all of their wiring is more than capable of handling anything required of a 4-way. I reached out to Curt and verified this information directly.

  • Hitch Receiver and Trailer Wiring for 2017 Lexus RX350
    Thanks for letting us help Rick. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C73DR is a confirmed fit for your Lexus RX350 as long as you do not have the F Sport model. Once installed, the main cross tube is concealed behind the rear bumper, leaving only the 2-inch receiver visible for a nice, clean appearance. I've included an installation video we completed on a 2017 Lexus RX350 so you can see what the finished installation looks like and what's involved. Since your RX350 has the factory tow...

  • Troubleshooting What Wiring Harness Will Work for a 2023 Lexus RX 350
    Hi Tiffany, So, issues with the trailer wiring for a 2023 Lexus RX 350 is a common experience that a lot of people have due to an electrical system change Lexus made on the new RX models. The brake and turn signals are sent down separate wires so a powered converter module is required to protect the vehicle's wiring and provide enough power for the trailer lights. If your vehicle has a factory tow package then a pre-wired plug-in connector like the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness...

  • Looking For A 7 Pole Plug And Play Wiring Harness For A 2012 Lexus RX 350
    Hey Mark, For your 2012 Lexus RX 350 there are not any 7 pole plug and play options, but what you could do is use a plug and play 4 flat harness with a 4 flat to 7 pole adapter. The plug and play harness for your vehicle depends on if you have a factory tow package or not. If your vehicle does have a factory tow package you will want to go with # 56083, Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness. If it turns out you do not have a factory tow package you would want to go with # 118478, T-One...

  • 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.

  • Troubleshooting No Power to 4-Way on 2014 Lexus RX 350 After Curt Harness 56083 Install
    The only way to know for certain is to contact at Lexus dealer with your VIN to determine if you have the tow package. Sounds like you are missing some relays or fuses under the hood of your 2014 Lexus RX 350 that will allow the trailer wiring harness to be active. There is a tech note for this harness that it may require additional components such as relays or fuses depending on how the vehicle is equipped.

    Hey Jim, thanks for the information. However, I can not do anything with that VIN number so I went ahead and deleted it. There's two options for trailer wiring that fit the 2013 Lexus RX 350. The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # 56083 is designed for the models that have the factory tow package.

    Hey Neil, thanks for reaching out! It looks like you still have the dummy plug connected to your 2015 Lexus RX 350 to help protect the OEM connector. If you remove the one end of the plug (that you're holding onto) you'll be able to plug in the Curt T-Connector # 56083 just fine. If you jump to the 1:20 minute mark on the attached video you'll see Randy remove that dummy plug (although it isn't highlighted like I'd like it to be).

    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.

  • 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...

  • Do You Have a Hitch for a 2021 Lexus RX 350 F-Sport?
    Yes, we do! The Hidden Hitch by Draw-Tite Hitch item # DT58GR you were looking at actually fits both the F-Sport and standard model of the 2021 Lexus RX 350. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Lexus with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the 2" receiver is detachable and the crossbar installs behind your rear bumper. This means you won't be able to see it when you're not towing or using the receiver for an accessory. If you are planning on towing you will also...
