Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector

Video Transcript for Review of Curt Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring - Trailer Hitch Wiring - C43WR

Hello everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we'll take a look at the Curt T-connector vehicle wiring harness with the four way flat trailer connector. Now this is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander vehicles. And on a custom fit part like this, I do recommend for you to go to our website and use the fit guide.

Put in your year and model vehicle and it'll show you if this will work for your application. Now this harness will provide this four way flat trailer connector at the back of your vehicle to power your trailer's signal lights. It is compatible with five pole, six pole and seven pole adapters that we do sell separately on our website. This does connect very quickly and easily. What you'd have to do is just locate your connection points, which will be in the rear cargo area.

Plug in these T-connectors. There's two of them, one on each side. One on the driver's side, one on the passenger side. Ground the white wire, and then you'll have the remaining black wire, which is your power wire. That'll run to your vehicle's battery.

Now this kit will include this box here, this black box. This is a taillight converter, and this is to ensure that your vehicle's wiring will match that of your trailer. It is a power module, so it does connect directly to your battery to avoid overloading the vehicle's electrical system. It is constructed with the SMT technology, which is surface mount technology. Gives you more consistent, reliable performance.

It'll help maximize trailer light yield and intensity while producing minimal heat. And it also ensures superior operation in rough road conditions. If you notice that they do even include this nice dust cap, that'll go on to the four way. Just adapt it to the plug, just like that. And you can leave it on there if you'd like. And then when you're not plugged into your trailer, just put that dust cap over the terminals and that'll protect them from the elements and from any damage. A few specs on this. The maximum amperage for the stop and turn light circuit is five amps per circuit. For the taillights it's 7.5 amps per circuit. And the last thing I want to go through is just where all the, it includes everything shown here on the table. And just to show you where all these pieces go. So again, what you'll do, let's go to the back of the vehicle, access your connection points in the rear cargo area. Go to the driver's side and you'll take the one that has the yellow wire in here and unplug your plug-in behind your tail light. Plug this in there. Take the white wire with the eyelet on it. Connect that to a good clean ground if there's one nearby. If not, they do give you a screw that you can make your own ground. And then you'll take your other T-connector. That's the green wire that goes over the passenger side. You can see it is a length of wire. So run that over, connect that in the passenger side. Once those are all connected, you do want to attach this box. It does have some weight to it. So you do want to attach this to a flat surface, so it doesn't bounce around. It has a tab with a hole, so you can put a screw in there if you prefer. If not, they do give you some double face tape that you can use to hold it in place. And then run your four way out the back towards your trailer. And then your remaining connection will be your power wire. That's the single black wire right here. This will need to run to the front of your vehicle. So they do give you some extra wire for that and your connectors. So if you take a butt connector, put it on your power wire, connect it to one end of this length of wire, run it up to the front. Once you get up to the front, you don't want to connect this directly to the battery. You want to run it through this fuse holder. So take your other butt connector and connect it to one end or one side of the fuse holder, just like that. And once that's connected, take your eyelet connector they give you, connect that to the other end. And then this will connect to the battery. Once it's all connected, just take your included 10 amp fuse, install it into your inline fuse holder. And then once you get that in there, just go ahead and put the cap on it. Once you get the cap on there, now your system's all ready to go. If you notice, they do give you some extra cable ties to take up any slack in the wiring. But that should do it for the review on the Curt T-connector vehicle wiring harness with the four way flat trailer connector..
