Expert Reply:
I spoke with my contact at Curt and he stated that if your 2013 Kia Soul has LED tail lights then there have been some issues with the wiring harness. If you do not have LED lights then it is likely a bad converter and it will need to be replaced.
For a model with LED tail lights use # 118637.
