Connect your towed car's lighting system to your RV to activate the signal lights required for towing. This universal harness wires in to your Acura TL's existing wiring with the included connectors.
Features:
Typically, wiring your car for flat towing is a tremendous chore. You have to position and mount multiple diodes beneath your car and then splice into the car's wiring. Each wire - for running lights, brake lights, and both turn signal lights - must be connected to a diode. And don't forget to jump the diodes so that the running light signal is sent to both sides of your car.
Or you could just use this Curt wiring harness. This universal-designed system connects to your vehicle's existing wiring. Simply splice into your factory wiring and connect the labeled wires to your factory wiring with the included butt connectors.
Because your vehicle has a combined lighting system - wherein the brake signals and the turn signals are carried on a single wire - a brake light relay (RM-88400 - sold separately) may be required if you use a supplemental braking system with your towing setup. A supplemental braking system depresses the brake pedal in your towed car every time you apply the brakes in your RV. So, if your towed car's brake lights illuminate when the brake pedal is pressed and the engine is off - as is the case when towing - then you need to install a relay to ensure that the lights on your towed car always act in accordance with the signals sent by your RV via the wiring harness. Without a relay, the brake signal from your towed car will override the turn signal sent by your RV when you slow down to make turns, creating a potential hazard.

This universal harness wires in to your vehicle's existing wiring with the included connectors.Worst nightmare ever! Our mechanic has a person who wires cars for trailers. He could not make it work ($XXX). We were rushed to get it working, before our big summer trip and a Car Electronics Specialist got it working for us ($XXX). I guess I should have gone with a Blue Ox wiring kit. But nothing but this one was recommended to me.
Two mislabeled circuits. One on the left and one on the right. Difficult installation. Took two days to complete and my son who works on aircraft avionics was the person to do most of the install. It works when finally all installed correctly. Lots of metering to get this done. We did a more difficult routing through the car and firewall to hide and protect all the wiring. Also ran an additional wire if we ever add trailer hitch and need power for that install.
The kit was very easy to install thanks to the wire labels and Easy Fast Installation video available online. Now I no longer need the magnetic mickey mouse ear tow lights. Thanks etrailer.
etrailer was a great resource for me to establish my towable. Always available, replaced a damaged part with no issues. One of the best online large projects I've had. Went into this expecting the usual battle, but they were great.
Well built, easy to connect & disconnect by myself.
I am glad I spent a little more for a high quality product!

Not what I expected
Package improperly packed. Smaller box crushed by heavier base plate box. Paper dunnage only on top, not separating cartons inside.
Fortunately no apparent damage to product. Will test when installed.
