Question:

Expert Reply:
For your 2014 Chevy Equinox, the vehicle wiring harness I recommend is # 118494. The converter is a nice feature because it will reduce strain on your wiring system as it connects directly to your battery. If there was ever a short in the wiring, it will only blow the converter or a fuse vs. if you had the wiring harness # 56094, a short could cause additional problems to your vehicle. A converter isn't required but it's definitely a worthwhile investment.
I highly recommend using dielectric grease part # 11755 to help prevent corrosion from water exposure.
I included a installation video and link to all the trailer wiring we currently offer for you too.
