  • Using a Circuit Tester from Wiring Harness Kit to Determine Wire Connections on 2019 Hyundai Tucson
  • The 4-Pole Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # C59496 comes with a basic circuit tester that has an alligator clip on one end that connects to a ground like the metal frame on your vehicle. Then you will use the sharp point to insert into the wire connection while you run one lighting function at a time. The LED bulb will light to reflect the function it sees on that wire. You can see this in the attached video at the 2:00 mark. The green wire will connect to the passenger side...

  • T-Bolt Attachment Points on Evo Crossbars for a Thule Hullavator

You will adjust these square nuts and the rubber channel however you need to install the Thule Hullavator item # TH898. You won't need the Replacement M6 x 37 mm Screw item # TH97FQ as the Hullavator comes with all necessary parts.

  • Will The Remote Activate Two MaxxAir MaxxFans At The Same Time
  • Depending on the amount of space between the two MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote - Powered Lift - 10 Speed - Smoke # MA00-07500K you could potentially have both fans react to the remote. The remote sends out an infrared signal to the sensor in the fan, just like how your tv remote sends a signal to your tv. The only way to prevent both fans from reacting would to have the spaced away from each other and using the remote close to the specific fan you're trying...

  • Can 12V Feed For Powered Taillight Converter Be Attached to Power Source Other Than the Battery
  • When installing a powered taillight converter like # C89KR, Curt doesn't recommend attaching that 12V power feed to anything other than the positive battery terminal, so I can't recommend anything that would contradict the manufacturer's advice. Drawing the power directly from the battery serves to isolate the tow vehicle's sensitive electronics from any short circuits that might occur in the trailer wiring. Connecting the converter's power feed anywhere other than the battery or where...

  • Block Heater Installation Location For A 2017 Hyundai Tuscon
  • According to the application guide the Kat's Heaters Custom Fit Engine Block Heater # KH11812 will install in the base of the "Rear Right" (RR Position in attached picture) of your 2017 Hyundai Tucson's engine. This is much easier to locate from under the car so you'll want to jack up the vehicle and place it on some jack stands # PTW41021 for your safety while installing this block heater. You'll also want to coat the heater in some Silicone # LT37467 to help conduct heat and form a good...

  • Engine Block Heater Installation on 2014 Hyundai Tucson
  • Installing a block heater in your 2014 Hyundai Tucson should take less than 1 hour of labor time.

To install: 1) Locate cartridge hole on the engine block. 2) Clean cartridge hole of all debris. Use compressed air. 3) Attach cord to heater. 4) Install...

  • Installing T-One Harness # 118501 on 2013 Hyundai Tucson
  • The instructions included with the # 118501 wiring harness for your 2013 Tucson are a bit on the vague side. The procedure is different from the Santa Fe harness you mentioned. The first step in the install involves removing the tail light assemblies (as if you were changing a burned out taillight bulb). Disconnect the manufacturers wiring harness from the rear of the assemblies. You will then need to remove the spare tire cover (cargo area floor) and threshold. Then, locate and remove...

  • Where is the Block Heater Port on a 2014 Hyundai Tucson with the 2.4L I4 Engine
  • We have not yet have the chance to install the Kat's Heaters Custom Fit Engine Block Heater part # KH11812 on a 2014 Hyundai Tucson with the 2.4L I4 engine so I don't have any exact steps or photos for you unfortunately. The only advice I have is where the manufacturer states the port will be located which is in the front of the engine on the driver side. I have attached a photo of this for you. The position is indicated as "FL". It would be a good idea to remove the belly pan if you will...

  • Installing and Removing Yakima Fullback 2 Bike Rack on 2013 Hyundai Tucson
  • The Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack # Y02634 doesn't have any specific instructions for your 2013 Hyundai Tucson. It appears you simply need to uninstall the lower hooks first and with some slack in the hooks you will remove in the same way they were installed. Make sure your hub setting is 4 as that is what the manufacturer specifies for your vehicle with the hatch to base pad measurement of 4-3/4 inches. With those specs the hooks are a fit according to the manufacturer and you shouldn't...

  • Installation of Wiring Harness on 2019 Hyundai Tucson
  • The Curt Upgraded Circuit Protected Powered Tail Light Converter # C59496 will splice into the wiring behind the tail lights on your 2019 Hyundai Tucson. You'll likely need to open the rear hatch of your Tucson to access the area behind the tail lights; there should be some screws that allow you to remove the tail light housing and access the wires you need to splice into. You will also need to run the included heavy gauge wire to the battery and connect via the included ring terminal....

  • Can Trailer Hitch Install on Leased 2018 Hyundai Tucson
  • I'd first check the lease agreement to see if there's anything on hitch installs. There are no permanent modifications needed to be done on your vehicle to install a hitch like the Draw Tite part # 75836 which fits for your 2018 Hyundai Tucson so you'd most likely be able to just take it off before returning it and they'd not know it was ever there. I attached an install video for the hitch for you to check out too.

  • Why Does the Trailer Wiring Harness For a 2019 Hyundai Tucson Require a Power Wire
  • The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 118812 which is a fit for a 2019 Hyundai Tucson does require a wire to be run to the vehicle's battery for power. The reason for this is because the vehicle's tail light circuits are not rated high enough for the additional amp draw of the trailer lights. Furthermore, this acts as a barrier to protect the vehicle' tail lights if there were ever an issue with the trailer's lights. In regards to other trailer wiring harnesses that don't require a power...

  • Does Curt C13240 Class III Hitch Require Stabilizing Strap for Non-Trailer Loads
  • Curt backed off on the stabilizing strap requirement a few years back, although the caveat still appears on of some of our fitguide pages for hitches where Curt hasn't yet updated the installation instructions. The Curt # C13240 would work great on your 2017 Hyundai Tucson, as long as it isn't the Night Edition with dual exhaust tips. You needn't worry about the # 18050 stabilizing strap, so if you'd prefer the Curt versus the # 75836 from Draw-Tite, there's no reason why you can't go...

  • Where to Install the Kat's Engine Block Heater on a 2012 2.4L I4 Toyota Engine
  • I understand your confusion as the installation manual for the Kat's Heaters Custom Fit Engine Block Heater part # KH11812 on your 2012 Hyundai Tucson with the 2.4L I4 engine are bit hard to understand. I will certainly do my best to help guide you in the right direction but as I do not have the engine and vehicle in front of me it would be hard for me to provide you with an exact location. I can however confirm that left front (LF) is the correct position in which the heater will need...

  • How to Access the Taillight Wiring on the 2011 Hyundai Tucson for Installing a 5-Way Trailer Harness
  • To access the wires that supply power to the taillights at the rear of the 2011 Hyundai Tuscon, you will need to remove two Phillips head screws that hold the taillight assemblies in place, see photo link. After the screws are removed, carefully work the taillight assembly straight out from the rear of the vehicle, wiggling it slightly side to side. Once you have the tail light assembly pulled away from the vehicle you will be able to access the wiring connectors for installing a 4-Way...

  • Using 12-Volt Accessory Feed From Trailer Connector to Maintain Battery on Pop-Up Trailer
  • Typically, the blue wire on a 6-way connector is used to carry the output voltage from the brake controller. The 12-volt auxiliary feed, which usually feeds the center pin on the trailer connector can be used to maintain a fully charged battery, but will not have enough amperage to charge a dead battery.
