Installation
This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's factory tow package wiring harness, which is located just behind the rear bumper, near the center of the vehicle. Once you've plugged in the tow harness, insert 2 of the blue relays and the brown relay into the included jumper harness. This harness then plugs into the port that is located behind the driver's-side trim panel in your rear cargo area. Plug the remaining 2 blue relays directly into the relay box under your hood.
Once installation is complete, the 7-way connector will be stowed beneath your vehicle, near the trailer hitch. A mounting bracket (sold separately) is recommended to keep the connector secure.
It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 7-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.

The left turn signal and brake light didn't work on install. I still have to tear everything apart again to troubleshoot. Camper at storage. Takes an hour to get to relays behind panels and I just haven't bothered.
Sierra K - 06/06/2022Very happy with my purchase of the 2013 Nissan Pathfinder trailer hitch, 7 pin wiring harness and bracket.The videos really speed up the installation, especially the internal vehicle disassembly and wiring. Everything went to plan with no surprises. The parts are well engineered and good quality. I printed out the 7 pin connector schematic and used a 12 volt test bulb to verify functionality. I didn't break any of the plastic clips or skin my knuckles, which is a first for me. I purchased an inexpensive panel clip tool set, which makes removing the plastic trim a breeze. A screwdriver would work fine, but I needed an excuse to buy some more tools.
I removed the blanking plugs from the external harness connectors before installing the hitch. It's easier to get at them. Don't pry the connectors off the body using a screwdriver. Use a pair of needle nose pliers on the reverse side of the clip to release them from the sheet metal.
Excellent web site and videos make it easy to select the right parts.
The wiring harness I purchased for my 2016 Nissan Pathfinder for my towing hitch was very easy to install per their instructions and connected seamlessly with the wiring harness already on the vehicle. I am very pleased with this product and have referred them to several of my friends. I would definitely buy from them again.
Great product. The only thing thing to improve is to mention explicitly that the 7 pin connector mount bracket is not included with recommended wiring package or trailer hitch. Otherwise great product, easy to install and looks great.
Love this company. I ordered on a Sunday at 3pm and it was shipped by george by 8pm. And I got it two days later. Could not ask for better service. And their videos showed step by step instructions. So super easy to do yourself. I had to remove the tow mount, and cut some plastic. But still easy. Thanks y'all. Great prices and service. Will be going here for all my vehicle needs. Next will be the roof rack.
Well designed for my vehicle, installation went smoothly. Appreciate the how-to videos.
I ordered DrawTite hitch #76031 along with Tekonsha Wiring #118273 and HM40975, 7 and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket for my 2018 Nissan Pathfinder SL. I ordered on a Thursday afternoon and the merchandise arrived the following Monday evening (with free shipping and no tax). The hitch arrived in excellent condition with no scratches or scrapes and was packaged very well. The total for my order was a great price! This also included a tube of dielectric grease and a brush. To get a factory hitch would have required an expensive "Technology Package" at a cost of over $2000 or a dealer install which would have cost over $1000.
I did the install of the hitch myself. It would have been far easier if I had a lift to raise the vehicle off the ground, and a helper to hold the hitch in place and get the 6 frame bolts started. I used an ice chest to prop up one side of the hitch while I got the bolts started on the other side. Watch the videos from etrailer before doing the install. I did have to trim about one-eighth of an inch off the corner of the gasoline vapor recovery box on the left underside of the vehicle to get the hitch into a position so that the holes in the hitch lined up with the weld nuts on the frame. I used a rotary file on the end of my drill to do this. The 2X2 receiver does barely touch the bottom of the rear trim on my Pathfinder but did not require cutting the trim to get it to fit.
The Tekonsha #118273 Factory Wiring was not difficult to install. The etrailer video on how to install this item was not as good as it could have been. The installer says he is going to make the 2 vehicle connections inside the left-rear of the vehicle "by feel," which may be fine for someone who knows what he is doing, but was not helpful to me. I pulled back the trim on the inside left rear to make these 2 connections. You should definitely make ALL of your wiring connections BEFORE installing the hitch itself. If you don't, it will be very difficult to reach the connectors outside the right rear of the vehicle if the hitch is already in place. BE WARNED about this.
The HM40975 connector was very easy to install and by having it you will not need to use an adapter to use a 4-way flat trailer connector. I used 2 stainless steel bolts to fasten the bracket into place instead of the included self-tapping bolts that were in the kit. This item is well worth the small cost.
I am completely satisfied with my purchase from etrailer and will not hesitate to recommend them highly. Both George and Adam at Etrailer were very helpful.
See the picture of the completed install on my 2018 Nissan Pathfinder SL.
Received my hitch, wiring harness and 7 way receiver adapter within a few days. The video was spot on. Asked Jon with etrailer a couple of questions and he responded almost immediately. Everything went smoothly except two hitch bolts wouldn't go into my Nissan. Used two of four bolts which held my tow harness in place which i removed and fixed the problem. I apparently ordered the wrong 7 way adapter plate so be careful which one you order but fixed the problem by drilling 3 new holes and it worked perfectly. Overall I'm very pleased.
Just installed on my 2013 Pathfinder and I have no complaints. The fitment is spot-on and installed very easy and quick. The exterior harness wasn't too long and was actually the perfect length for the mounting point for the 7- way plug. The only thing missing from this kit is the bracket to mount the 7-way plug. Aside from that this is a complete and comprehensive kit.
This was an amazing plug and use wiring harness. Used on our 19 Pathfinder SV and had zero issues.
Everything with this wiring fit perfectly. After watching the video install it was a breeze finding the fasteners to remove the access areas. It has been a year since install and has worked without any issues. The only extra I needed was the bracket to the hitch for the female 7 pin plug. The one I ordered from e-trailer did the job and looks professional. Thank you e-trailer on another great product.
Directions were very thorough; I did not have to call for tech support. We have taken our travel trailer out several times and wiring has worked as expected. Price was very reasonable compared to dealer. I buy all my trailer/towing needed products from etrailer.
Easy to order and quick shipping.
The delivery was super fast and much appreciated by your company. If we are in need again of something you offer, we'll gladly use you again! Best!
Everything fit and worked perfectly on 2017 Pathfinder

Did not get
Jenny N - 07/11/2022Shipment arrived as told it would. Good product. My only complaint would be pictures in instructions were bad, but great installation videos on[line]. Would buy from etrailer again
Worked perfectly for my Infiniti QX60 2017. Good instructions and easy install
The service ans support were great. The product fit perfectly.
It's nice to do business with a quality company. I will let all my friends know about eTrailer.
Everything worked perfect! Order was received complete and no issues with installing. Thank you for providing a very satisfactory product. Very clear and multiple resources for installation, super satisfied with your product. Thanks again!
Wire harness was easy to install with video and instructions. Hitch was easy to install by myself once I tapped out mounting nuts on the vehicle frame. Very Poor quality mounting brackets. Completely rusted out in one year. That’s why the 2 stars.
Saved more than half what it would have cost me at U-HAUL. Glad I had help and access to a lift.
Purchased :
T-one Vehicle Wiring Harness 7-way Connector
Grease Dielectric 2 Oz.
Draw-tite Max-frame Hitch Receiver - Custom - Class III -
Mounting Bracket For Pollak 7-pole Rv-style Connector
Perfect part for the job! Good installation video to assist. Everything needed for the job! All was just plugging and play as the Pathfinder was pre-wired. I included the harness pictures as they were behind a panel in the hatch and mounted to the wall. I couldn't find a way to expose them and the video skipped that part. There was just enough room to get 1 hand in and for me to blindly plug them in behind the wall. The color on the plug proves it's a tight space and the vehicle harness is fixed to the wall. Used the picture to align and blindly plug in and it worked out.
Overall a good experience!
