Question:

I have a 2014 GMC Acadia SLE 2 that does not have tow package. I am wanting to wire it for a 7 pin trailer light connection. Do you have a harness that will directly plug into the factory wiring that will produce this?

Expert Reply:

There is a 7-way for your 2014 GMC Acadia without the factory tow package that you can plug in, the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118271.

Since you don't have the tow package though, there is one additional step you will have to take, which is to install the provided fuses and relays in the fuse box under the hood of your Acadia. This is simple to do and the positions are included in the linked instructions; I've added the portion of the instructions that says exactly where you need to install them.

Additionally, I have added a link to a video install of Wiring Harness # 118271 in a '14 GMC Acadia which shows you exactly how to install this harness, including where the fuses will go on your vehicle.

To mount it, if you have the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75528 - which has a spot next to the receiver for a mounting bracket - you can use the Mounting Bracket # PK12711U. If your hitch does not have a spot designed for a mounting bracket, you can still use # PK12711U along with No-Drill Bracket # C57202, which will secure to your hitch with a clamp.
