2014 Audi Q5 Trailer Wiring Recommendation

Question

Question:

Hello.. I purchased a hitch and part#41155 for my 2014 Audi Q5. Hitch went on with no problems. Great fit. For the wiring.... Cant find a place to plug the 41155 into. Any thoughts? Vehicle sticker said trailer pre wiring. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

The # 41155 is designed to replace a trailer 7-way and provide a 4-way connector. Sounds like you do not have any trailer wiring so this product wouldn't be the correct wiring kit.

The only solution we would have would then be a universal wiring kit like the part # 119250KIT.
