Sierra K - 05/24/2022GREETINGS, YOU GUYS ARE GREAT! I WAS APREHENSIVE ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT THIS KIT WOULD WORK ON MY 2005 HONDA ELEMENT DUE TO HONDA'S OEM TRAILER HARNESS (NO LONGER AVAIABLE)BEING SO TECHNICAL WITH DIFFERENT HARNESSES FOR DIFFERENT YEAR ELEMENT MODELS. YOUR KIT WAS SPOT ON AND BEING ABLE TO GO TO YOUR WEBSITE ACCESS THE VIDEO TUTORIAL WAS ALL I NEEDED TO HAVE A PAINLESS INSTALL, FUNCTIONING RIGHT AND PORPER ON THE FIRST TRY. THANKS FOR MAKING MY GARAGE TIME ON THIS PROJECT STRESS FREE!!!
This kit lacks any type of instruction in the package but appears complete. At the price I expect clear instruction without needing to look for them online. The leads on the module are about 5 or 6 ft too short to be of use on the 2022 Sorento PHEV SX I have, ground and power are only identified on your installation video. As well, the splices provided are for wires larger that in that vehicle leading to failed connections on each wire!For the price I paid I certainly expected that I would NOT have to scour several local shops for the parts to finish the job nor to have to refer and search necessary information!.
Jenny N - 12/16/2021Comprehensive kit - came with everything needed for easy installation! Would highly recommend for anyone needing to power vehicle trailer lights. The online PDF was very helpful as well to see the wiring diagram and be able to view >100% for those with difficulty reading the paper instructions :)
My wife took this picture of my Son and I working on a truck the other day. We were installing electrical connections we had recently ordered from you guys for a truck that has a new hitch on it that also came from you guys. One of your boxes is in the photo. Figured you would appreciate it. I am sitting on the ground with my head up under the truck Good times! [Thumbs up]
Guality stuff. etrailer.com is the only place I buy trailer stuff.
It feels heavy duty and is working exactly as it should. Easy wiring in my 2005 Passat TDI. The most difficult part was bring the 12ga wire from the battery to the rear of the vehicle. The effort was worth it; I have a professional looking install that works perfectly.
Eric P - 05/03/2014Ordered this, together with a hitch receiver. etrailer waited a month to update the delivery date for the hitch receiver to 3 months ahead, so I canceled the hitch receiver and requested they send me this Upgraded Modulite vehicle wiring harness kit, which came incomplete. I called and got the rest of the items sent, which took another week. Hopefully installation goes as indicated int he instructions.
Great kit. Installed in 2021 Kia Sorento. Would advise soldering the wires into harness instead of using the crimp connectors. Fits well in same compartment as tire kit under back deck. Would be nice if the manufacturer instructions were included. Other than that, very happy with it.
I purchased a trailer and connector for my Lexus NX300 Hybrid and it works well!! The Lexus dealer told me I could not add a trailer or I would lose the ability to use my foot to automatically open up the trunk (sensor). However your team told me that I could have the trailer and not lose access. Your team was correct and the trailer has come in handy. We have not carried anything on the hitch yet, but know we can if needed. Also, the trailer is very nice looking... you can barely notice it.
Easy installation, did the job well, no issues thus far.
2014 WRX wagon at taillight: WHT/RED = Turn signal BLK/WHTstripe = Running light BRN = Brake light I mounted the modulator behind the left turn signal. I routed the power wire through the trunk via rubber access plug. I then fished the power wire under rear seat and stuffed it under plastic trim molding along the doors. I went behind left kick panel and then came out and ran it into the fender well, between the door and the fender, and up a structure tube into the engine compartment. The wire is safe from damage and will not be crushed by shutting the door because of the rubber door seal. I ran my XM ant. wire like this also and there are no negative consequences.
Working great, good service from etrail er
I've had nothing but great experiences with etrailer in ordering and installing 2 hitches on my 2 MB SUV's, this was no different. Good product, easy to follow/logical instructions and excellent customer service
I recommend the Tow-Ready 119147KIT instead of the Curt Model for a 2013 Prius. I had to return the Curt Kit because the running lights/tail light stayed on all the time even with the vehicle off. Sometimes there wasn’t a tail/running light on if you reset the converter by removing and re-installing the fuse. This Tow-Ready model works like it should. You'll need 12 gauge wire to run from the battery, (right side hatch area,) to this unit which will need to be mounted on the driver’s side, rear hatch. At the very top of the left rear tail light are covered wires going into a plug. The Blue is the Stop light and the Brown is the tail/running light. (Be careful since these wires are thin solid copper wires.) Left turn signal is the green/yellow stripe wire and on the right side rear lamp the right turn signal is also the green/yellow stripe wire. You will need to remove the left rear panel to get to the blue and brown wires. Remove the bottom tray cover, the bottom tray as well as the left rear plastic tray and the plastic bottom hatch trim over the latch assembly. Remove the Phillips screw on the left rear panel as well as the chrome tie down clamp. This sounds harder than it really is. Good luck!
Product delivered was damaged and not what I ordered. Very poor packaging!
Jenny N - 03/28/2022The product was easy to install with provided instructions. I only wish if they can print the fonts bigger ( I don't have 20s or 30s year old person eyes).
Hitch was a breeze using a lift. Wiring package typically comes as a plug-in. This package you need to solder wires and use wrap. Not an issue but for the price, should be a plug and play. Still give trailer hitch and wiring harness 5. Less than two (2) hours to install on '04 Porsche Cayenne S.
Rachael H - 08/13/2019Great product, fast service and mailing even with one of the products I got were out of stock still got it in a week
still works great a year latter
Received order quickly. Installation instructions poor but if I could not figure out how to do this, especially with the excellent how to video, than I should leave it to a professional. If one can understand the video then the installation is quite simple. Take your time and it will come out great.
2019 Hyundai Tucson Works well but had two small problems with the install. This is the base model 2019 Tucson the up scale models I think have a different wiring harness. The red wire from the box is connected to the harness. It's not grounded like I read on someone's post elsewhere. I ran most of the wiring outside so I wouldn’t have to remove interior panels. 1st the wire to the passenger side light was too short I had to add a couple of feet of stranded wire to it. It may have been okay if the control box was mounted inside but I wasn’t going to remove interior panels to see if the harness was available there to splice to so I mounted the control box in the cavity below the tail light someone with large hands may have a problem getting in there. 2nd one of the inline wire splicers wasn’t making a connection on the brake light. The Tuson wires are very thin. So after moving and reattaching with no change I squeezed the metal part of the splicer to make a smaller gap for a better pinch on the wire. It requires a continuity checker to troubleshoot this or someone to step on the brakes while checking with the supplied checker. ..Could have had more wire ties. Initially I thought that it had no wire ties but they were with the black power wire so I didn’t see them. It's helpful to have something reflective to check the trailers brake lights. I got a quick response from Etrailer when I emailed them.
I am pretty happy with my purchase. The tow hitch arrived very promptly within a few days of ordering it. The longest part of the install was marking and cutting the plastic bumper. Once that was done it took two of us 15 minutes to bolt it in place. I did find the recommended ball mount a little low for my trailer and you might like to try one that has a 3" rise. The instructions were a bit sparse but there are several video clips on how to approach it. I used the 119147KIT for the lights and I found a guide on the Chevy Bolt forum. I do need to say that this isn't for the faint hearted!
Product work as described. One of the wire connectors was problematic and I had to solder it instead. Also I purchased a mounting bracket from the trailer rental place for the 4 prong connect on the car end. This was to secure it to the car and it worked fine for awhile but now is loose and the connector keeps falling out of the bracket where it is to snap in. It's now wired tie to the mounting bracket. That connector should have a better design in the way it secures to any mounting bracket. Otherwise, I saved a lot of money installing your kit rather then having the rental place do the electrical work for my new hitch.
I just installed by my own on BMW 135i 2010 despite the fact few dealers and u-haul refused to help me. It is a way easier installation(45mins) as compared to other car brands, because the battery is at the back of the car. The only thing you would need from the kit is one more butt connector. I had a problem to find a place for ground - but it is solvable. I used crocodile connector and tape to connect to one of the screws of the back light. One more easy thing for dummies. To test the right wire you will need to connect one end of the tester to the ground of the car, switch on the light to test and connect the tester(which is also in the kit). For tail light you will need to switch on the car engine. If you do not want to test these here are the colors you use in your car Left side of the car in multibulb assembly wires: MODULITE ----------------------------------------------135i LEFT TURN -------------------------------------- Blue wire with green stripe BRAKES ----------------------------------------- Purple with Yellow stripe Left side of the car on Tail light bulb harness: TAIL LIGHTS ------------------------------------ Purple wire with Light Blue stripe Right side of the car in multibulb assembly: RIGHT TURN ------------------------------------- Blue wire with Brown stripe ^^^I took this description from open source of one of the BMW forums. For me it worked out well. As for the Modulite colors they are in the pdf Instructions of this Modulite. I do not know why I did not get this in a printout with modulite, but I got this info here http://www.etrailer.com/instructions.aspx?pn=119147KIT
