Comparing the Tekonsha Trailer Wiring Harness for 2018 Chrysler Pacifica # 118723 and # 118712

Question

Question:

Thanks for the reply. I am shocked that the connectors are different for the different trims of the Pacifica. Usually, the assembly line uses the same wiring harness brake connectors for all models and trims, there just might be different features left off of different wiring harnesses (heated seats, etc.). However, this leads me to the question I guess I am really getting at... What wiring harness will work for my 2018 Chrysler Pacifica Touring Plus (notice, no "L")?

The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118723 is the custom fit for 2017 and 2018 Chrysler Pacifica Touring and LX models. The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118712 is the fit for 2017 and 2018 Chrysler Pacifica (excluding hybrid), Touring L Plus, Touring L, and Limited models. The connectors are different based on the trim models but it appears the modulite is the same amperage.

I reached out to my contact at Tekonsha and the correct harness for your Touring Plus (no L) is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118712. Chrysler did use two different connectors with different pin outs and a different alignment location as well so they are not interchangeable. They have a gray connector and a black connector that are different. Your vehicle will have the black connectors that the harness above will fit.
