Features to know about

Installs Fast Without Splicing: T-Connector for Factory Tow Package

This harness is made for vehicles that already have the factory tow package, so it plugs right into the existing connector. There’s no cutting or tapping into tail light wires—just connect it to the factory plug and you’ve got a working trailer light setup in minutes.

Curt T-Connector vehicle wiring harness with 4-pole flat trailer connector, showing plug-in connectors and wiring layout for vehicles with a factory tow package.

Clean Look and Easy Access: Hidden 4-Pole Flat Connector

The 4-flat trailer connector is designed to stay out of sight when you’re not towing, keeping things tidy and protected. When you need it, just pull it out and hook up your trailer lights for running, turn, and brake signals.

Reliable Signal Power: Built-In Powered Converter

The powered converter keeps the trailer lights working correctly with modern vehicle wiring. It provides consistent power to your trailer lighting while protecting your vehicle’s electrical system from overload or feedback.

Ready for Everyday Towing: Plug-In Trailer Hitch Wiring

With its plug-and-lead design, this CURT harness makes it simple to connect to standard trailers using a 4-way flat plug. It’s a dependable wiring option for small utility trailers, campers, or boat trailers that use basic lighting functions.

  • What Concealed Hitch and Wiring do You have for My 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV?
    Hello Marc, I have the perfect option for your 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. The EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # EH64CR. This hitch's tube will be concealed and out of site. The added bonus is that the receiver can also be removed. So when it is not in use, you won't even know you have a hitch installed. For the wiring you will want the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter w/ 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector and Install Kit # C59496. There is not a plug-n-play wiring...

  • Which Trailer Wiring Harness for 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander
    As long as your Outlander isn't the plug in hybrid (PHEV), I'd recommend the # 118482 for vehicles without the factory tow package or # 118277 for vehicles with the tow package. If your vehicle has the tow package, it will have the tow package electrical connector located behind the driver's side bulkhead in the cargo area, to the rear of the wheel well as shown in the provided photo. You could also call your Mitsubishi dealer with the VIN, and they should be able to tell you how the vehicle...

  • 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander Recommended Towing Parts
    I recommend going with the Curt towing parts for your 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13163 - Curt T-Connector Wiring # C56296 w/Tow Package or # C56189 w/o Tow Package - Mounting Brackets # C42CR and # C83DR - Curt Towing Starter Kit # C45534 I really like the Curt towing products because of how reliable they are. Curt is one of the industry leaders when it comes to towing products so you can be confident you'll be able to use their parts for a long time.

  • Trailer Wiring Harness that Fits 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander
    For the 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander Curt lists the part # C56189 as a fit which plugs inline with the vehicle taillights. If you have the correct connector for the part # C56296 to fit there's a good chance it would work, but I'd recommend using a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 to test the pins of the connector to make sure they are active.

  • Installation Instructions for Trailer Wiring Harnesses for a 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander
    We don't have a video showing installation of Curt trailer wiring harness # C56296 for the 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander but I have linked the installation instructions. It will install basically the same way as # 118277 which we do have a video for and I have linked it. The video is on a 2016 but the install process will be the same for a 2018. Both of these wiring harnesses are for models that came with the factory tow package. The easiest way to determine if your Outlander has the factory...

  • Trailer Hitch and 4-Way Wiring Recommendation for 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross
    For your 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross we have the Curt hitch # C13273 which is a confirmed fit and then for 4-way wiring you'd want the part # C56296 and you'd be set.

  • Can The Curt T-Connector Wire Harness # C56189 Be Converted To # C56296
    No, you would not be able to convert the Curt T-Connector # C56189 to the # C56296. You would need to return the # C56189 and purchase the # C56296 in order to get the necessary components for your Outlander. There ae no wiring diagrams listing the specific functions of each wire in this wire harness kits since they come with vehicle specific connectors and aren't designed for the end consumer to make alterations to.

  • Trailer Wiring Harness Recommendation for a 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander
    If your 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander has the tow package then you would need the part # C56296 that you referenced. If you do not have the tow package or do not want to mess with figuring out if you do the install harness part # C56189 will fit either way as it installs inline with the taillight harnesses. The easiest way to determine if you have a tow package is to check the window sticker or call a Mitsubishi dealer with your VIN. Since your vehicle is so new you probably have the window...
