Features to know about

Installs Fast Without Splicing: Plug-In T-Connector

Wiring for towing doesn’t have to mean cutting into the factory harness. The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector plugs directly into existing vehicle wiring. It’s a true plug-and-lead setup that keeps everything clean and straightforward so you can get your trailer lights working without hours of tracing or splicing wires.

Simple Power Connection: Uses Existing Factory Wire Route

Running a separate power line all the way to the battery can be a hassle. With this harness, you can tap into an existing factory wire that’s already routed to the front fuse panel. That saves time and keeps the install secure without adding long cable runs underneath the vehicle.

Ready for Modern Trailers: Works with LED Lighting

Whether your trailer uses traditional bulbs or LEDs, this powered converter handles both. It delivers a consistent signal for running lights, turn signals, and brake lights without triggering errors or flicker on LED setups.

Clean Storage When Not in Use: 4-Flat Connector Inside Hatch

You don’t need a permanent mount or exposed wiring. The 4-flat connector can hang out of the rear hatch when towing and tuck neatly inside when you’re done. That keeps the plug protected from weather and gives you a tidy setup that’s ready whenever you need it.

The instructions were easy to follow

I actually hired a mechanic to install the wiring. And have not used it on a trailer yet to test it. It seams like a worthy product so far



by:

Superb transaction!
Thank you

Ordered a hitch, wiring and the ball to fit my Nissan Rogue. Everything as described. Price competitive if not lower. High quality and very fast shipping



by:

Well based on the purchase and speaking to a customer service rep for strainer, my parts where not the right ones. Had to order them from someone else. The electrical components did not connect to my turn signals and that is a major importance to a customer they should be able to click on. And the hitch sits way back into my bumper.

The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector
Item #C56397 is working great! The only issue that I ran into was trying to follow the installation instructions, my connections were not behind the panels. I had to remove the plastic housing for the lights to access the connections. Once I figured that out the project went smoothly.



by:

Fit perfectly and was quickly installed by my mechanic.
