Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly into existing wiring. Powered converter is made using SMT to ensure superior performance.


Features:

  • Provides a 4-way flat trailer connector at the back of your vehicle to power your trailer's signal lights
    • Compatible with 5-pole, 6-pole and 7-pole adapters (sold separately)
  • Connects quickly and easily
    • Locate connection points in rear cargo area
    • Plug in T-connector
  • Includes a tail light converter to ensure that your vehicle's wiring matches that of your trailer
    • Powered module pulls power directly from battery to avoid overloading vehicle's electrical system
  • Constructed using surface-mount technology (SMT) for consistent, reliable performance
    • Maximizes trailer light yield and intensity while producing minimal heat
    • Ensures superior operation in rough road conditions
  • Comes with dust cap for 4-way flat connector


Specs:

  • Maximum amperage:
    • Stop/turn lights: 3 amps per circuit
    • Tail lights: 6 amps per circuit
  • Limited 1-year warranty


Installation

This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located in your rear cargo area. You will have to remove the rear scuff panel and additional trim to access this harness.


Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your cargo area.


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.


Tail Light Converter with Surface-Mount Technology

A tail light converter is built into this T-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 the trailer. This converter combines 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.


Curt builds each tail light converter using surface-mount technology (SMT). This method of construction involves soldering electronic components directly to the surface of a printed circuit board. SMT eliminates the need for leads, which are used in older through-hole technology. The result is a circuit board that is smaller yet provides more routing area and that offers superior performance, reliability and durability.


Curt SMT Circuit Boards

Circuit boards constructed using SMT have been shown to perform better under rough conditions with excessive vibration than those made using the through-hole method. And where would vibration be more likely to occur than in towing applications? Curt converters also produce less heat, leading to increased durability and longer life. In addition, lower levels of resistance ensure better performance, especially for parts that operate at higher frequencies.


Each Curt circuit board is made using high-quality components that are pieced together in the most technologically savvy fashion, leading to greater predictability and reliability in functioning.

I installed this in my 2012 Honda CRV because my trailer’s running lights stopped working. The product is easy to install because it only has two plugs to connect in addition to an inline fuse, ground wire, and fuse for the car. The only bummer was that the inline fuse prongs were next to each other but the inline fuse plug’s receptors were offset, so I wasn’t sure if the fuse was really making proper contact. But overall, I rate it 5 stars.

@Keith Glad we had the right fit for you Keith! What do you use the wiring for?

A year out from purchase, this product is still great! So useful! etrailer is best for trailer parts, EVERYTIME!



by:

Everything about the product was excellent. The best thing in the world with the videos as to how to install and use their wiring, harness or hitch or tow bar.



by:

Went fair except I am a technician and was left to wonder about the amount of volts going through small wires that this item had me plugging into. It would seem like this trailer kit should say something like "for use with LED trailer lights only"....

2012 Honda CR-V

I am still very happy a year out. I was able to easily install the Curt trailer hitch on my 2012 Honda CR-V all by myself. This is the second time that I've purchased a hitch from etrailer and it was an excellent expeirience both times. The product came well-packaged with no parts missing and instructions. The also provided links to ibstructional videos so you can literally follow along as you watch someone guide you. I use my hitch to tow a small 6x4 ft. trailer full of fire wood, leaves, dirt, furniture, and anything else that will fit. Etrailer will be my top consideration anytime I am on the market for vehicle accessories. Great products. Great customer service. Great Company.

Still working great! No problems with the wiring at all!



by:

As a retired auto technician, I found that watching the etrailer installation videos specific to your year and model quite helpful. The interior panel retaining buttons are fragile, but don’t panic if you break a couple of them, the panels will go back in place just fine with a couple of them missing.

Great! We use the hitch for an electric wheelchair for my 90 year old dad. I’m the one that has to hookup it all on my own. Couldn’t be more pleased with the fit. Thanks for being a great company via the internet. Carolyn a loyal customer

Parts fit perfectly
Installation
videos are excellent



by:

I wired it to the outside of the Crv so I didn't have to open the hatch every time I wanted to pull my trailer. First I cut the trailer plug off a foot from the plug and ran the wires through the grommet in the photo. I had already cut a hole in the underbody and this grommet lead right to this hole. Then I reattached the trailer plug to the wires with shrink wrap connectors and ran the plug right above the hitch. Very clean install and setup I really like it.



by:

Watch the video. The only improvement I made was to put the fuse into the fuse holder before hooking things up; it's awkward to reach back in behind the panel to do this after the connection clicked into the line.

2015 Honda CR-V

The trailer hitch and wiring harness arrived in 2 days, which was much quicker than I expected. The installation went smoothly thanks to the detailed instructional videos on etrailer.com. Great products, prices, and service. Thank you etrailer.com.

Here is the final finish of the Curt "T" connector. Wired to my Hidden Hitch I purchased. Ordered a separate bracket to house the four pin plug to give it a cleaner look. Easy to install and looks amazing. Can't wait to try it out.

Great customer service!

Exceptional service. Fast delivery. Another retailer failed to install a towing wiring harness so I found this product which was exactly what I needed. It came with videos and instructions that made it incredibly easy to install myself.

Very nice and well made trailer hitch wiring harness for my Honda CRV. Brake, tail lights, turn signal lights tested perfect first try. Cover for plug keeps contact points clean when not in use.



by:

Thank you for such an awesome experience! Never done this before and watching your video made it really easy to install. My jack had broken so I had to do it from the floor. A little tough but managed without any help. Also, The wiring was cake as well. Perfect demonstration and walkthrough on your video(s). You asked for the pics so I shot a few for you. I've never had a vehicle with a tow hitch so my next goal is a trailer. gotta save for that one :(

Well, once again I want to thank you, guys!

2015 Honda CR-V

Kit fit as described. Struggled to get the black rear panel back on as others had mentioned. Tough to get that gap out as it separates from the other piece near the rear seat. I did stick my connector to come out this hole as in pic below. Sticky tape fell off both sides despite wiping though. Used gorilla glue to help and otherwise all was fine. I'm a novice and it is do-able.



by:
2016 Honda CR-V

Routed the wiring harness through the existing grommet behind the left interior wall panel and then out the existing hold at the bottom of the protective cover.

Love the installation videos! Made installation a snap.

  • Should 4-Pole Trailer Connector Be Stored Inside Vehicle or Mounted Externally
    A 4-pole wiring harness like Curt # C56158 or Tekonsha # 118561 can simply be pulled from the back of the vehicle when you need it for towing a trailer. The wiring will be safe with the hatch closed on it (as long as you avoid the latch mechanism) since the weather stripping will protect it.

    Honda did not offer a towing package with a 7-way trailer connector for the CR-V, so using a 4-way to 7-way adapter is the best option. You will first want to install a wiring harness with a 4-way connector like part # C56158. This will provide all of the trailer light functions. I have attached the installation video and instructions for you to check out. Next you will want to install a 7-way adapter.

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Wiring of 2016 Honda CR-V that Has Voltage on Turn Signal All the Time
    Sounds like you the converter box of the trailer wiring you installed shorted out and and is now in need of being replaced. This is a pretty common problem. If you test for voltage before the converter box and find the correct voltage is making it to the box but not to the output side then the box has been damaged an in need of replacement. For that the most reliable replacement we have would be the Tekonsha kit part # 118561 as we've found their converter boxes to be the most reliable.

  • Is 10 Amp Fuse Rating Correct When Installing Trailer Wiring in 2016 Honda CRV
    Curt extensively tested the fuse rating needed when installing their # C56158 in your 2016 Honda CR-V and they determined that 10 amps was the correct rating to go with. With as many as these as we have sold we would have heard by now if there was an issue as well so using the 10 amp fuse will be totally fine.
