Features to know about

Installs Without Cutting Wires: Plug-In T-Connector

Adding trailer wiring usually means tapping into your vehicle’s circuits, but this harness eliminates that step. The Curt T-Connector plugs in behind the tail lights using factory-style connectors to create a 4-flat trailer plug. There’s no splicing or guessing which wire does what—just plug it in and you’re ready to tow.

Protects Vehicle Electronics: Powered Converter Box

Modern vehicles don’t like extra electrical load on their lighting system. This harness includes a powered converter that draws power directly from the battery through its own fuse. That way, the trailer lights get a clean 12-volt feed while your vehicle’s wiring stays protected from overloads or shorts.

Adds Safe Trailer Lighting: 4-Flat Connector Output

Once installed, the 4-flat connector provides running light, turn signal, and brake light functions to any small or mid-size trailer. It’s the standard setup for most utility trailers, boat trailers, and campers, giving you all the signals needed for safe towing on the road.

Simple Power Routing: Direct Battery Connection

The included black power wire runs straight to the positive terminal on the battery. It’s a straightforward route that ensures the converter always has reliable power. With solid grounds and a dedicated fuse holder, you get consistent performance without flickering or dim lights.

Ready for Future Upgrades: Works with 7-Way Adapters

If you ever step up to a trailer with electric brakes or need a 12-volt charge line, this 4-way harness can be paired with kits like the ETBC7 to add a full 7-way connector. That means you can start simple and expand later without redoing the wiring you’ve already installed.

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly into existing wiring. Powered converter reduces strain on wiring system and is made using SMT to ensure superior performance.

by:

Our previously installed harness quit working. Something got fried inside the converter. The part we ordered from etrailer was literally a snap to install and works exactly as it should. So my trailer lights are back in business! The price was right, shipping time was acceptable and it took me about an hour to remove the old harness and install the new.

Regarding installation on a Ford Transit: I've seen several comments about the difficulty of making connection to the battery, which is under the drivers seat. Our van has a remote positive terminal in the engine bay to make jump starting easier. Our original harness was wired to this terminal, so I just kept the wiring in place.

Still working as advertised. No issues at all.

yet to install but quick shipping makes me a satisfied customer

Amy was very helpful and knowledgeable about the products that I purchased.



by:

Very easy install. Worked perfectly



by:

Will not work on a 2026 Transit 350. The website may have been changed to reflect that now.



by:

Perfect for our transit van. super easy to install although the wiring was rather difficult to get right. Just the thing to pull our boat trailer with ten kayaks! and a great deal.



by:

This is easiest wiring harness I have had to install on my Ford Transit. I will definitely be always using etrailer from now on, for all my wiring harness needs.



by:

Briann did a great job with help to get harness hooked up



by:

Sara was a huge help!! Thanks again etr ailer.com!



by:

Installing was simple and easy arrived on time very pleased with purchase and vendor will use again in future



by:

Very easy to install. No need to cut any wires.



by:

Love the how-to install video that you guys provide for so many of the products you sell!



by:

Light kit fit my 2022 Ford Transit like a glove. Plug and play.



by:

Exactly as advertised and easy installation for a reasonable price!



by:

My order was processed and shipped quickly. The packaging was very sturdy and everything arrived intact. I haven't installed it, yet, but they provide multiple installation videos. I wouldn't hesitate to order from them again.



by:

Liked the kit but found a better way to install without cutting grommets. Mounted below drivers side tail light. See pics. Power wire was run all the way to the fuse box under hood instead of battery under drivers seat. This kept all wiring outside keeping all grommet seals intact, and saving time on removal of interior panels which are difficult with 15 passenger seating still installed.



by:

This is an easy to install kit, and the install video made it even simpler. I chose to mount my wiring on the left doorpost, where it can easily be pulled out through the rear door weatherstripping when needed. I was able to keep all wiring inside the van compartment and frame rails. Two hopefully helpful comments:
* In order to mount to the door rail, it is necessary to splice in a couple of feet of wire to the green wire between the two light buckets. By cutting this wire, I was able to snake it through the frame tubing under floor behind the rear door latch. I did not have any wiring outside the vehicle.
* There is a wiring lug available on the side of the driver's seat, adjacent to the battery compartment, which may be a more convenient lug to attach the hot wire to. The video shows running the wire all the way to the engine compartment.
Best of luck.



by:

Above averaage construction, but the main power wire was about three feet too short.



by:

Harness not long enough to go from side to side to hook to tail lighta



by:

Excellent - easy install what I call a plug and play. just enough power wire to run to battery (no excess)



by:

Everything thing was there that the installer needed that E Trailer recommended.
Great service from the start to the finish. Thanks E Trailer



by:

Easy install, watched video to ease installation! Fast shipping!



by:

This was a necessary product for my Ford transit van. Fortunately, I am experienced with electrical wiring and have electric components on hand. The product itself is a good product and didn’t have any issues with it after installing it. What really is disappointing is that it did not have enough electrical wiring to run throughout the van. I had to install additional wiring as as well as supply my own fuse and various wiring terminals to make all the connections. Video instructions were very helpful on getting the wiring kit ran through the van, and the videos were very helpful to follow. Ordering from etrailer was easy. Was able to quickly find and identify the part needed. And the whole ordering process was a breeze. Etrailers communication was fantastic on the digital side.



by:

Kit works as advertised, power wire and RH tail light wire were both about 2 feet short. Fortunately I had wire and splices to finish the job, but would suggest adding about 3 feet more wire to each of the short harnesses. I have done wiring installations professionally for 40 years.



by:

It went in pretty easy. The instructions seemed to indicate that you run the main 12 V power line from the battery through the cabin back to the rear lights. Which I suppose would be fine if you had a work/cargo van. Mine is finished so it took some creativity and problem-solving to figure out a routing that wouldn’t leave exposed wires for people the trip over or get caught on.

  • Parts Needed to Add Brake Controller to 2026 Ford Transit T350
    Hi Michael! Do you already have a 7-way on your Transit? If you don't have wiring, you need to start by adding a 4-way with # C56327 (single rear wheel) or # C42MJ (dually). Once you have your 4-way installed you can upgrade it to a 7-way using the # ETBC7. Then for a brake controller, I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED52VR. The Liberty is simple, reliable, and installs just about anywhere in the cab. The main unit is hidden and the control knob installs in...

    That is the only way you'd be able to install the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195 on your 2023 Ford Transit T350 since there is no custom fit wiring harness.

  • How To Tell If a Ford Transit Has the Tow Package and Parts Needed To Add It
    The Ford Transit if equipped with the factory tow package would have came with both a trailer hitch and trailer connector and they would both be located directly under the rear bumper so odds are you do not have either because they are not hard to locate. The factory tow package was also not a very common option but I can provide you with everything to add this on your own at a fraction of the price.

You'd need to first start with a 4-way if you do not have one already like with the part # C56327 and then convert it to a 7-way with the part # ETBC7 which also comes with everything needed to install a brake controller.
