Installation
This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side tail lights. You will have to remove the tail light assemblies to access this harness.
Once you've plugged in the T-connector, run the hot lead up to your car battery. Connect the lead to the included fuse holder, and then connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal on your battery and insert the provided fuse.
Once installation is complete, the 4-way flat 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 plugs on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.
A ModuLite power module is built into this T-One 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 your trailer. This power module functions as a tail light converter to combine 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.
With a ModuLite, your trailer's lights will be powered without overloading your vehicle's electrical system. Because the module draws power directly from your car's battery and bypasses the electrical routes that are used by a basic wiring harness, there is virtually no draw on your tail light circuits.

Holy moly it is NOT, I repeat, NOT an easy install. The instructions are so poorly written. They also assume you have a long list of tools - including some tools the instructions don't mention - and background knowledge.
For example: Step #10 reads...
"On the driver’s side, locate the black 12 ga. power
wire from the T-Connector box. ATTACH THE BLACK 12 GA WIRE PROVIDED [emphasis mine]. Route the black wire along the exterior
frame or follow the existing wiring along the thresholds
into the engine compartment up to the battery avoiding
areas that may pinch or break the wire."
That "attach the wire" part? I hope you know how to splice wires and crimp a permaseal tube. Because that's a whole multi-step task condensed to one sentence. Oh, and you're going to be figuring it out while under your car. Have fun.
Without exaggerating, this frustrating thing took me 7 hours to install. Seven. Hours. Per the instructions you'll end up with a wire from the front to the back under your car (I hope you can figure out your own way to fasten it). That's after you spend an hour getting the wire through your engine compartment at all. If you're an average Joe, little of this review will sufficiently prepare you for the brutal initiation rite that this installation is. Please head my warning. Save yourselves.
