Question:
How do I know if my car has the factory towing package?
asked by: Allyson
Expert Reply:
if your 2003 Toyota Highlander has a tow package plug located in the driver's side rear cargo area under the floor (see instructions for installing Item # 118413 on where to look) then your Highlander has the tow package. If you find a plug, use a circuit tester like Item # PTW2993 to check to see if it is active. If you do not find a plug or the one you find is not active, then you do not have a tow package.
Another way to find out is to contact your local Toyota dealer, give them your VIN, and they should be able to tell you how your Highlander is equipped.
If you do not have a tow package than add the Tekonsha T-One Wiring Harness, Item # 118413. This harness will plug behind the trim panels in the cargo area on the driver and passenger side.
If you do have the tow package then use the Curt T-Connector Wiring Harness For Factory Tow Package, Item # C55245, that is a confirmed fit for your Highlander.
I have attached links to some videos for you to check out.
