Question:
I have a 2013 Nissan Xterra. It has a flat 4 pin connector but no running lights. I just bought a new travel trailer and need to convert to a fully functional 7 pin with functional running lights. I need everything to accomplish this as well as the in cab braking module. Please help! Thanks.

Expert Reply:
Since the solution for no running lights on your 2013 Nissan Xterra is a missing relay and you also want a 7-way kit your best solution would be the part # C56226. You already have some of the relays but you'll be able to use one of the extra blue relays to fix the running light circuit and you get everything needed to install the 7-way.
This relay is traditionally found under the dash to the left of the steering column. There is a socket there to plug in the relay that will activate the tow package tail lights.
