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 rear access panel. You will have to remove all trunk floor coverings, spare tire, scuff panels, cargo tie downs, interior side panels, and tail light. Once you've plugged in the T-connector, run the hot lead to your car battery, which can be found in your trunk on the passenger's side. Connect the lead to the included fuse holder, and then connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal on your battery.


Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your trunk.


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.


Powered Tail Light Converter with Surface-Mount Technology

A tail light converter is built into this T-connector. This converter is a circuit-protected, battery-powered unit that bypasses the electrical routes that are used by a basic wiring harness. As a result, there is virtually no draw on your tail light circuits.


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.


Curt SMT Circuit Boards

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.

Easy to install and the instructions were spot on! I have used numerous times and still love the ease of use! Plus I keep the connector in the car when not in use so it will last longer!

Amazing! I have used it in every weather condition the Midwest can throw at me and the connector still looks brand new. A superior product!

Installation was a snap and it has been working well for me on my 2016 Tiguan! Have used it several times while towing a small utility trailer. I opted to pair this with an “OEM style” power wire/fuse holder purchased elsewhere… but that was just for cosmetic reasons, I’m sure the wire/fuse holder included in this kit would have worked well too.

Still working perfectly!

I’m moving across the country and realized 3 days before my move date that I forgot to order the wiring harness! I ordered it immediately and paid for 2 day shipping. It arrived right on time, no delay at all. I installed it immediately! Everything in the trunk was relatively easy, but routing the power wire to the battery wasn’t fun at all since I don’t have a lift or jacks! However I made it happen and all is well. My towing lights work great and I couldn’t be happier with etrailer’s products! I have their hitch and wiring now. One VW Fanatic extremely happy!



by:

After it was finally installed, it is great, but very vague instructions on removing the taillights, (had to go online to find out how) and no info on removing the plastic trim panel fasteners without breaking them, (waiting for new ones to come from [online retailer])



by:

Couldn’t be happier! Amazing product.



by:

Trailer wiring harness was easy to install and was well made.

I was impressed with what a relatively simple job putting on my hitch was for my ‘12 Tiguan. All parts in the kit were intact, and instructions were clear. How to get the wire up to the battery could’ve been clearer.

Fast shipping, great product, clear ins tructions.

  • What Area Needs to be Trimmed on a 2012 Volkswagen Tiguan SE to Install a Trailer Hitch
    You are correct, there is some trimming required on the rear fascia on a 2012 Volkswagen Tiguan to install a trailer hitch like # 36474. The area that needs to be trimmed is shown in the isntructions I have linked and I have also included a picture that shows the diagram. As far as tools, you can use a sharp utility knife, slowly make an initial cut as indicated in the instructions, just to score the area. Then make progressively deeper cuts until the blade goes all the way through. Once...

  • Troubleshooting Constant Trailer Connector Replacements on 2016 Volkswagen Tiguan
    The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # CU26FR is a solid choice for wiring on your 2016 Volkswagen Tiguan since it uses the tees to trigger the trailer light functions but it pulls power directly from your battery via the included power lead. Whenever there are issues with wiring malfunctioning like this it's almost always a bad ground on either the tow vehicle or the trailer. You need to make sure both the Tiguan and your trailer have a ground connection that's secured to a clean,...

  • Trailer Hitch And Wiring Recommendation For 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan
    We have a few trailer hitches designed to fit your 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan. I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch, part # C13133. This is a Class lll hitch and has a 2 inch receiver opening. This hitch is rated with 3,500 lb towing capacity and 350 lb tongue weight capacity. You will want to check your owner's manual or with your dealership to make sure you do not exceed the towing or tongue weight capacity for your Tiguan. Using a heavier duty hitch does not increase the towing capacity...

  • Trailer Hitch that Does Not Require Bumper Trimming for a 2012 Volkswagen Tiguan
    That is correct. On several of the trailer hitches for the 2012 Volkswagen Tiguan, there is fascia trimming required to install the hitches on the vehicle. Even if trimming were not required, you will want to check the terms of your lease to see if a trailer hitch can even be installed just to be on the safe side. If you will be doing some towing I recommend adding the etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a carrying bag. For...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan and Why Does Curt Require Stabilization Strap
    It just happens to be Curt's policy for all Class I and II hitches and any higher Class hitch that is not rated for use with weight distribution. The etrailer Hitch does not have this same policy and thus the stabilization strap does not have to be used for non-trailer loads such as bike racks or cargo carriers. If you want to avoid using the strap, then I would go with etrailer trailer hitch # e98906. I have linked a video showing how the hitch installs. f you plan on doing some towing...
