Installation

This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the rear bumper, on the driver's side.


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 year out still 5 stars. Its common on these 4 pin connectors to have the plastic rub off next to the single exposed pin, this is no different. Still functional and stays connected throughout use.

This part is meant for Jeeps that have the factory tow package. I am wondering if that is the issue here. If your jeep doesnt have that then you would need part # 118425.

I recently recieved my tow hitch for a 2000 Dodge Dakota. The part arrived promptly and in excelent condition. I was very pleased with the quality of this hitch by Curt. It was very stout and had great welds. I haven't had a chance to mount the unit yet but the measurements look to be right on. etrailer.com has a new customer.

The kit was extremely easy to install and fits like a fine glove. So easy in fact that the factory could not have done better looking job. Works great although I rarely use my trailer but I know when I do, I can rest assured that the wiring will not be a problem as it used to be.

have since started driving a different vehicle. My jeep bit the dust. I liked the harness and it always worked fine but I didnt get to use it too long. I do remember how easy and well thought out the installation process was. I do keep a link to your website and have turned on others to it. Sometimes it was already too late but now they know its there. Ill definitely keep you guys in mind in the future

The product was everything that was advertised it arrived in perfect condition I guess I just misunderstood what I needed and inevitably ordered the wrong part my 05 Jeep Liberty did not come with a 7-way so I need a different harness to be able to hook up my trailer should have called customer service first

Etrailer Expert

If your Liberty didnt have the factory 7-way, I would recommend the # 118524 Tekonsha powered taillight converter.

This product was what was recommended by your site as the proper wiring harness and it IS NOT compatible with my vehicle. Our family’s vacation has already been pushed back by 2 days dealing with this situation and we are still working on finding a local solution!

This wiring harness is only compatible if your Freightliner Sprinter has the factory equipped 7-way trailer connector, as we state in our product fit guide. If your Sprinter does NOT have the factory 7-way, youd need part # 118650 instead.



by:

Fit just like advertised. They have excellent customer service. Videos and pictures were a great help.



by:

etrailer received, filled, packaged and shipped my small order (wiring harness) within an hour, then turned it over to the US Post Office.... Within 2 days, it crossed the state line from Missouri into Illinois. A few days later, it was received in Chicago and should have arrived in Canada in short order.... Instead, tracking my order a week later revealed that it was resting comfortably in Miami Florida. A call to etrailer and Carol soon straightened things out. It eventually found its way to me and I am quite pleased with the service from etrailer. The Post Office? Well, you know..... Bobber.



by:

The T-wire harness was great, installed well and works fine.
The Seat covers are great as well, durable and easy to install, will consider rear seat covers if available?
The stabilizer bracket would not work with my platform rig, but looked of good quality and I will find a use for it.



by:
2006 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter

Bought this for a 2006 Dodge Sprinter didn't realize it would not work on a Sprinter with out towing package. Had to buy different kit and splice the wires in (not fun) make sure you have the right kit if you are working on a Sprinter. On a vehicle with the right harness it works great just plug in and go.



by:
Dodge Durango

Thanks to etrailer's excellent customer service, I was FINALLY able to order the correct wiring harness for my '01 Dodge Durango. There are many variables due to several Durango models, and this was the correct one. Has worked flawlessly since installation.



by:

perfect fit fast install!!



by:

Easy to install, hidden when not in use, doesn't reduce ground clearance and trouble free. Local hitch installer quoted me $350 and said it would take 3" off my clearance. I saved over $200 and got a better setup.



by:

Super easy to install and worked right away, no additional fuses or lights necessary. Videos were easy to find on [online] and very easy to follow. Would recommend this to anybody. Mine did not come with the double sided tape, but I had some lying around so no worries.

It would have been very easy to install but my truck did not have the quick disconnect behind the bumper.

You mentioned that you were not able to find the connector and I wanted to ask if you were adding on the 4 flat or replacing it.



by:

I was in a hurry and I bought the wrong wiring harness. I have ordered the right wiring harness and it is on the way. My truck does not have the factory trailer connections for the wiring harness that I ordered.



by:
2007 Dodge Dakota

didn't even install it .... my Dakota had no hook up ... had to hardwire a connector .... waste of $15 , not even worth my time returning it .... I did buy a hitch that I am using though ... should have bought a chevy



by:

I've had this on my truck for a year to pull my little 5x8 utility trailer for work. It's worked every time so far and haven't had any issues with it. So far so good. Oh, and it only took about 20 minutes to install of you're into that kind of thing.



by:

website was very helpful and easy to use. Told me exactly what to order and how to install, Items arrived and installed exactly like they said they would. Saved us $300 dollars and have exactly the same hitch we were quoted at several different trailer install places. Thank you etrailer!!!



by:
2007 Jeep Liberty

I watched a video of theirs on Youtube which linked to the correct part and I bought what the video linked to, assuming it was the one shown in the video (without the factory 7-way). They sold me the one that uses the factory 7-way (which I don't have) and when I called asking to exchange it for the right one, they said it wasn't possible. They said they'd take it on refund, but are charging me for return shipping, and considering it's such a lightweight and cheap part to ship (and their website's mistake), I'm losing a significant portion of the money I spent on it.



by:

Wrong product .. reordered correct one .. said this was 4 pin connection, but requires vehicle to be equipped with 7 pin connection from factory. Guess you have to read the fine print

For a 2004 Dodge Dakota with a factory seven way this harness adds a 4 flat. For a 2004 Dodge Dakota that did not come with a factory harness part # 118323 would be a fit.

  • Wiring Options for Flat Towing a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Behind a 1986 Gruman/Olsen Delivery Van
    The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness, # 118381, that you have referenced cannot be used in a reverse type of application like you are describing. But there are numerous lighting options for flat towing a vehicle that will work for you. The right wiring application for you will depend on several factors. There are basically two types of wiring solutions for flat towing. Permanent solutions and temporary solutions. If you plan on towing the 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee often, you would benefit from...

  • Replacing a Broken Wiring Harness on a 2007 Dodge Ram Pickup
    If the wiring is damaged, it is always recommended said wiring be replaced or repaired. That being said, I am not aware of a specific part to remedy this without replacing the whole part. You could use Deka Cable Ties like # DW05727-25 as a temporary solution, however. If the vehicle is a 2007 Dodge Ram Pickup, you would use the Pollak 7 Way # HM40975-11933, or the Tekonsha T-One # 118381 if you have a 4 Flat. If the trailer needs the replacement, the Wesbar 4-Pole connector # W787268...

  • Brake Controller Install Kit for a 2000 Dodge Durango with 4-Way
    You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 118381. From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well.

  • How to Install a Brake Controller in a 2005 Jeep Liberty
    To install a brake controller in your 2006 Jeep Liberty with a factory 7-Way you will need to hardwire the wires from the back of the brake controller to the vehicle. This vehicle does not have a brake controller port that you can plug the brake controller into. I am including a link to the installation instructions for the Prodigy P2 brake controller # 90885. This is our most popular brake controller because of how easy it is to set up and how well it works. The four wires on the back...

    There is only one location on any given vehicle's frame to properly attach a hitch receiver. The location on your 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee where the existing 1-1/4-inch Class II hitch is installed is the same place that Class III hitch # 75338 will mount.

    The Curt # C13900 is a multi-fit hitch that is designed to fit on a variety of vehicles, but it would require some modification and drilling to install.

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring for 2007 Jeep Liberty
    For your 2007 Jeep Liberty, many people have a receiver for a bike rack or cargo carrier and have not added the trailer wiring which sounds like what you are finding. If your vehicle has the factory tow package, the harness you will need to connect to is found under the vehicle in the center behind your hitch receiver. If you have that tow package then you can simply use the Tekonsha # 118381 for a 4-Way or # 20135 for a 7-way. You may still need to add # 5506 on some models for 12v...

    Your 2002 Dodge van does not have a connection port under the dash for direct connection of a trailer brake controller like the Draw-Tite Activator # 5100 so the installation needs to be hard wired. Installing the Activator # 5504 in your van requires a pigtail lead # 20127, a basic 4-pole trailer harness like # 118381 (if you have a factory 7-way) or # 18252 (without factory 7-way) along with brake controller Installation Kit # ETBC7.

  • Can the Pins of a 4-Way be Moved Around
    I have a solution for you, but the pins of the # 118381 cannot be relocated in the 4-way, you could however just cut the wires and splice them to different wires to move the circuits around. Sounds like you only really need a 4-way plug and lead instead of the # 18252, for that you would want the # A35W42B for a 6 foot long harness.

  • Will a 2007 Dodge Ram and 2005 Ford Trailer Connectors Match to Tow the Same Trailer
    Wiring the trailer to match the pin out on the 2007 Dodge Ram should allow it to work with the 2005 Ford as well. The reason is that vehicles generally have the same pin out on the trailer connector, the two most common being a 4-Way flat and 7-Way blade style. To make sure everything matches up and just to be on the safe side you can use a circuit tester like # 3808 to test the functions on the vehicle side connectors. On the trailer side you can either trace each wire back to determine...

  • Troubleshooting Running Light Circuit Not Functioning on a 2003 Dodge Ram Trailer Wiring
    First thing you should do at this point is test the 4-way of the wiring harness with a circuit tester part # PTW2993 for voltage on all of the right pins when the taillight signals are being applied. Just like in the video I attached. If the voltage checks out there but the trailer lights still don't function right then the problem is on the trailer wiring. That would mean that problem is either due to a ground issue or a short issue. Make sure that the trailer side connector are clean...

  • Recommendation for a Class V Trailer Hitch that Will Fit a 2007 Dodge Ram with Factory Trailer Hitch

You can use Curt Trailer Hitch # C15704 if you want a 2-1/2 inch trailer hitch receiver. Hitch # C15409 has a 2 inch receiver. The recommended ball mount for a 2-1/2 inch hitch is # RP45323, and you can use pin and clip # 37201065. For a ball you can use # A-90 (2 inch diameter) or # 19286 (2-5/16 inch diameter).

    We don't offer a direct part, but I know how you could fabricate a pigtail. You'd need part # 118381 that would plug inline with the harness that plugs into the rear of the 7-way. You could simply cut the 4-pole off and wire the yellow wire to the left turn, the green wire to the right turn, ground the white wire and run the brown wire to the running light and jumper it over to the running light on the other side.

Easiest way to tell would be to check to see if the vehicle has a factory trailer hitch and wiring installed on it currently. If so, then you'd have the tow package and the kit you'd want is the # 118381 which would plug inline with the 7-way you have to give you a 4-way.
