Tekonsha Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring - 118808

  • 4 Flat
  • Custom Fit
  • Trailer Hitch Wiring
  • Powered Converter
  • Tekonsha

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom wiring harness. T-One connector plugs directly into existing wiring. Powered ModuLite reduces strain on wiring system.


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
    • Run hot lead to car battery
  • Includes ModuLite to ensure that your vehicle's wiring matches that of your trailer
    • Powered module connects directly to battery to avoid overloading vehicle's electrical system
  • Constructed of 16-gauge bonded wire
  • Comes with dust cap for 4-way flat connector


Specs:

  • Maximum amperage:
    • Stop/turn lights: 5 amps per circuit
    • Tail lights: 7.5 amps per circuit
  • 1-Year limited warranty


Installation

This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located in the rear cargo area. You will have to remove the threshold panel and corner felt trunk liner to access this harness.


Once you've plugged in the T-connector, run the hot lead up to your car battery. Connect the lead to the included fuse holder, and then connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal on your battery and insert the provided fuse.


Once installation is complete, the 4-way flat connector will be stowed in your rear 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.


ModuLite Powered Tail Light Converter

A ModuLite power module is built into this T-One 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 your trailer. This power module functions as a tail light converter to combine 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.


With a ModuLite, your trailer's lights will be powered without overloading your vehicle's electrical system. Because the module draws power directly from your car's battery and bypasses the electrical routes that are used by a basic wiring harness, there is virtually no draw on your tail light circuits.

Directions do not explain how to run power wire to the car battery and there idea for using a self tapping screw to secure the ground wire don't work well the car metal is to thin to tighten securely

2019 Mazda 3

This was the only plug and play harness I found at the time for my car, but so far I'm very pleased. Due to amount of technology and sensitive electronics in these new cars, I wouldn't want to try to probe a bunch of wires and connect a standard trailer light kit. The voltage and current with the LED tail lights might not even trigger a standard kit. This kit made it much easier, although it's much more involved as you have to remove a bunch of panels, and run power to it. It's great that absolutely no wires were cut or tapped, and no holes needed to be drilled.

Couple of install notes:
* The instructions are for a sedan, but I installed it on a hatchback where you have to remove a few more panels. Nothing too complicated, but take your time and look for all the fasteners. The plug for the right rear is a little more involved as it's behind a few more things.

* The rear hatch weather stripping has to be pulled away in a few areas. It's got a sealant underneath it that is easy to get everywhere, so remove the stripping slowly and try not to make a mess - it sticks to everything.

* Instead of running to the battery, I used an add-a-tap fuse connection at the drivers kick panel fuse block. I used a 15amp fuse just like the package came with.

* I taped the module in the left rear area under the taillight where you ground it to a factory ground point near by.

I installed this on my 2019 Mazda 3 Sport. It was not a very hard install. In fact I was impressed with the kit having never done this before in my life. I’ve used it many times to tow two different trailers. There have been zero issues. If you are in Canada like me, I still recommend you get this one off etrailer. One year later they asked me to review this product… This was a good buy!

Great product, excellent customer service! Would recommend to anyone looking for a trailer hitch and harness.

Well built. Connectors fit perfectly. Now if I can just figure out the best way to get the power wire from the trunk to the battery in the engine bay. The instructions and pictures could be a little better and more descriptive.

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Mazda 3 Hatchback
    I just heard back from Curt and the correct hitch for a 2023 Mazda 3 Hatchback is the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C98BR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Mazda with included hardware. This is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. I have attached a couple of pictures below so you can see what this hitch looks like once installed. If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # 118808 and the Draw-Tite Drawbar item # 3593 and then for hitch balls item...

  • Hitch Receiver and Capacity for a 2020 Mazda 3 Hatchback
    I have a hitch for your 2020 Mazda 3 hatchback but there are no 2" receivers available. At this point I would say there is not going to be one made for it. You can still do some towing with the Curt item # C98BR. This hitch has a 1-1/4" receiver but it still has a towing capacity of 2,000 lbs and a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs. It looks like your Mazda 3 has a 2,500 lbs towing capacity so this hitch would be just under your vehicles capacity. I have linked a picture below to show...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Mazda 3 Sedan
    Yes, it does!. The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch item # EH23VR does indeed fit the 2023 Mazda 3 Sedan. This hitch has a 2" receiver, is custom fit for your Mazda, and bolts to it with included hardware. I have linked the installation instructions below and they are pretty detailed, lots of pictures, so you will get a great idea of what is involved. If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # 118808 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.

  • What Is The Highest Capacity Trailer Hitch Available For A 2021 Mazda 3 Hatchback?
    For your 2021 Mazda 3 Hatchback, I recommend going with the Curt # C98BR. At the time of this writing, this is actually the only hitch we have that is confirmed for your vehicle, but due to its hidden design, it is one that I do like. With this being a Class I hitch, it will have a 1-1/4" receiver and is rated up to 2,000 pounds towing and 200 pounds of tongue weight, though you will need to check your owner's manual for your vehicle's capacities. To complete a towing set up, you will...

  • Will Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit on 2010 & 2021 Mazda3
    There is a trailer hitch receiver that will fit a 2021 Mazda3 (both the sedan and hatchback), though a hitch from a 2010 won't be able to be transferred. The reason for that is the Mazda3 underwent a design change for the 2019 model year, so the different body style necessitated a change in the hitch design. So for a 2021 Mazda3, you have a pair of options for a hitch, again depending on if you are going with the sedan or hatchback: - Hatchback: Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C98BR -...

  • Is Underbody Trim Panel Reinstalled on 2023 Mazda 3 For Draw-Tite Hitch Installation
    Yes, to install the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24984 on your 2023 Mazda 3 you will need to remove that panel and it won't be put back into place. Hitch instructions only mention this when the hitch either prevents the panel fitting back into place or there is excessive trimming that needs to be done on the panel for it to fit back in place so it's easier to just remove it and leave it off. If you'll be using the hitch for towing I recommend installing the T-One Wiring...

    The Draw-Tite Class I hitch, part # 24984 is a fit for all models of the 2021 Mazda 3 according to Draw-Tite. Usually, the on the more sporty models of small cars, the dual exhaust can present a fit problem, but as you can see in the linked installation instructions as well as the provided photo, the hitch fits perfectly with a dual-exhaust equipped vehicle.

  • Where Does 4-Way of 2020 Mazda 3 Get Stored When Not In Use
    Hey Eric, when the Tekonsha 4-way par # 118808 isn't in use it would get stored in the rear trunk area and then when you'd need to use it you'd pull it out and close the trunk on it. Just make sure it doesn't get caught in the latch and it will be fine as it would get pressed against the soft weather stripping.
