CURT Flat Tow Wiring Harness - C58911

  • Wiring Harness
  • Plugs into Vehicle Wiring
  • Tail Light Mount
  • CURT
  • Custom

Plug-and-play custom harness gets turn and brake signals on your towed car with no hardwiring or splicing, and no effect on your warranty. The built-in diodes protect your car from electrical feedback.


Features:

  • Allows your RV's tail, brake, and turn signals to display on your car's tail lights
  • Plugs right into car's connection points - no cutting or splicing
    • Custom designed for your vehicle
    • No effect on your warranty
  • Prevents feedback that can damage your vehicle's electrical components with diodes
  • Provides 4-way flat plug at front of towed car
    • Requires additional harness to connect to motorhome - sold separately
  • Includes wiring harness, mounting bracket, and installation hardware
  • Limited 1-year warranty


Notes:

  • A brake light relay (RM-88400 - sold separately) may be required if used with a flat tow brake system. (See below.)
  • A wiring converter (118158 - sold separately) and 2 additional diodes will be needed to retain separate turn and brake signals. (See below.)


Combined Lighting System vs Separate Lighting System

Combined vs Seperate Lighting System

A combined lighting system, or 2-wire system, uses the same light bulb to signal both braking and turning. (In other words, the car signals a turn by flashing the brake light.)


A separate lighting system, or 3-wire system, has the brake signal and the turn signal light up independently of each other. Typically, the turn signal is amber.


To keep the separate lighting system on your car functioning properly while you're flat towing, add a wiring converter (118158 - sold separately) and 2 additional diodes.


Do I Need a Brake Light Relay?

If the engine is off and your car's brake lights illuminate when you press the brake pedal, you need to install a brake light relay (RM-88400 - sold separately) with this kit. Without a relay, your car's brake signal will override the turn signal sent by the RV when you are slowing down to make a turn, creating a potentially dangerous situation. Other drivers will see that you're slowing down, but not that you're making a turn. With a brake light relay, you can signal both and travel safely.

Your service is horrible! Your answering service is slow and full of excuses on everything. You say in your ad professional service. Your company is far from that. The people answering the phone are NOT knowledgeable on the products you sell! They just want to send you the 1st thing they see. They don't explain there a 2 products that do the same thing, but the difference between the two. Takes hours for phone calls to be returned. Can't talk to managers. Many excuses for that. We had to cancel our vacation because of your Lack of professionalism, knowledge and excuses. Also your ad says guaranteed lowest price. We were told they couldn't do that!!

2015 Fiat 500

This is the simplest solution I found for wiring my 2015 Fiat 500 Pop for towing. I like the simplicity of just plugging the harness between the vehicle wiring and tail light fixture without having to cut or splice any wires.
Minus one star because the wiring extension to the front of the car came up short by about at least a foot from the front center where my plug attaches to my base plate. Not a huge problem for me because I am wiring a 6 pin socket that attaches directly to my Blue Ox base plate. I just used the wire included to connect my RV to the Fiat to make up the difference and connect to my 6 pin socket.
There were good suggestions in the instructions regarding routing the wiring from the back to the front. However, I couldn’t get the fish tape over the wheel wells or under the splash guard. I ended up jacking up each wheel (driver side rear and then front) then removing the tire the wheel well lining. You have to remove a half dozen fasteners on each wheel well liner and wrestle a bit to get the liners out, but it made routing the wiring over the wheel wells easier for me. I also removed three screws (Philips) under the edge of the drivers side splash guard to loosen the edge of guard which made it simple to run the wire extension between the guard and the frame at that location.

Since installation, the wiring to my Fiat 500 tail lights for towing has worked without a problem. I’m pleased.

Purchased this tow light harness kit specifically for our 2013 Fiat 500 Pop that will be flat-towed behind our RV. The kit arrived just several days after being ordered and contained all the parts required for installation. The install was surprisingly simple due to the 'plug n' play' feature! It took a little over an hour, but we chose to route the wires slightly different than what was suggested on the instruction sheet. We are happy with the results. The Fiat's lights now work as intended for towing and can easily be removed in the future, if necessary.

We purchased our road master towing equipment from etrailer, and then added a this wire harness for our towed vehicle. Every time we purchase from them, they exceed our expectations and ship quickly, and provide excellent videos on their products and installation process. They have now earned the place of being my go to, for all things towing and motor home. Keep up the excellent work team etrailer!

Waiting to install



by:

All and all the harness is very good, it took about three hours to install. Everything plugged together fine, the only
draw back was the wire lead for the car tail lights could have been a couple inches longer. Going to tow car behind a motorhome and the extra lights will help other people see it.



by:

Well constructed base plate. I called Blueox with a question and received great service. So glad that I chose etrailer and BlueOx!



by:

We only installed a portion of the kit, since the wiring was already in place from the front of the vehicle to the rear. Everything worked perfectly. The instructions were easy to follow. I would not hesistate to purchase his product again.



by:

McKenzie was extremely helpful with advise on all my needs for flat towing Fiat 500. I will keep her as my goto person at etrailer.



by:

The installation went well. The 4flat wire needs to be about a foot longer



by:

Has worked perfectly. Only reason for four stars is that it was difficult to install. But once it’s done it’s been fine.

  • Recommended Base Plates to Use with Blue Ox Aventa Tow Bar on 2017 Fiat 500
    You can definitely continue to use your existing Blue Ox Aventa LX Tow Bar with your 2017 Fiat 500. You will just need a compatible base plate kit for the vehicle. If your Fiat is the Lounge or Pop model I recommend the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX2801. If you have the Abarth model I recommend the Blue Ox # BX2805. Both kits are compatible and will work great with your Aventa LX Tow Bar. If you don't have them already, you will also need a lighting solution and a supplemental braking...

  • How to Flat-Tow a 2015 Fiat 500
    In order to flat-tow a 2015 Fiat 500 with all four wheels on the ground behind a motorhome you are going to need a tow bar, base plate kit, safety cables, tail light wiring harness, supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter. There may also be a few other smaller components that are needed depending on the options the vehicle is equipped with. For a tow bar, I recommend the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain Tow Bar part # RM-676. The Nighthawk is one of the best tow bars...

  • Recommended Supplemental Braking System to Flat Tow a 2019 Fiat 500
    The supplemental braking system I recommend for a 2019 Fiat 500 is the Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System part # SM99251 if the coach has hydraulic brakes or the Air Force One Supplemental Braking System part # SM99243 if the coach has air brakes. The Stay-IN-Play and Air Force One are two of my favorites because they are generally easier to install than most other permanent options. If you will not be installing the system yourself then the easier install means you could potentially...

  • What is the Best Way to Tow a 2012 Fiat 500 Behind a Motorhome
    According to the owner's manual for a 2012 Fiat 500 with a manual transmission (excluding 500c and 500 Abarth), the vehicle can be flat towed with all four wheels down and dolly towed with either the front two or rear two wheels off of the ground. In regards to which is better between flat-tow and dolly tow, they both have their benefits. If you have a leased vehicle or don't want to make any modifications as you plan to exchange it, dolly tow would be your best option but if you plan to...

    Neither the item # e98882 and the item # e98880 locking hitch pins have an official weight capacity because it exceeds what the trailer hitches are capable of.

  • 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness to Fit a 2015 Chrysler Town and Country
    To tow a trailer with your 2015 Chrysler Town and Country I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56331. It's a 4-way wiring connector to power the trailer's lights and it plugs in behind the van's tail lights. You also need to run a hot wire from the harness to the van's battery and insert the included fuse. I've linked the install details and a video from when we installed it. If you also need a trailer hitch reciver I recommend the Draw-Tite, part # 75579, that's...

  • Recommended Tow Bar for a 2014 Fiat 500
    The Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain Tow Bar part # RM-522 is what I recommend for a 2014 Fiat 500 (All Models). The Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain has a non-binding design so you can release the arms on unlevel ground without a tool unlike the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar part # RM-520 which just makes using the tow bar much easier. The Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain also installs on the motorhome when not in use so you don't have to worry about storing the tow bar unlike the Roadmaster Tracker...

  • Can Curt Plug and Play Flat Tow Wiring and 4-Way Be Installed At The Same Time On 2013 Fiat 500
    Since the Curt # C58911 and # C56174 use the same connection points you will not be able to install both at the same time. If you really want to swap them out when you tow/flat tow you can but that is going to be a big hassle. Instead, I recommend using the # C59236 which splices in for installation. It isn't ideal when there is a plug and play option but it will let you keep both installed on your vehicle.
