Yes. The # C59496 trailer wiring harness for the 2006 Lexus RX400H does require a separate power wire that connects directly to the vehicle battery. That is because it has a powered converter that supplies power for trailer lights directly from the car battery to protect the vehicles sensitive wiring.
