Installation of Tow Ready Wiring Harness 118558 on a 2012 Honda Pilot

Question:

1. I connected the harness to the white trailer plug behind the aux fuse box. Then plugged the other end of the harness into the black box that came the kit. Are there any connections to make? Several plugs are hanging off of the harness and I am not sure if they should be connected. 2. What are the two small black, square, fuse-like connectors for?

Expert Reply:

The black fuse-like connectors you mentioned are relays, and they are going to be installed in the extra black plug you see on the section of the # 118558 wiring harness that connects to the black converter box. This plug has slots for both of the relays. Once the included box-style fuse is installed in the secondary underhood fuse box, the two relays are in place, and you have installed both sections of the harness, no other connections are required.

I am including a link to the installation instructions if needed.
