Question:

I need to outfit my 2015 Honda Pilot to pull a trailer with electric brakes. The Pilot came with a factory-equipped hitch, but how would I know if I have a “tow package”? I would like the installation of the brake controller and 7 pin connector to be as “plug’n play” as possible.

Expert Reply:

It doesn't matter if you have the factory tow package or not, if you don't already have trailer wiring you can add this with the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package part # 118265 which provides a connection point for a seven way plug. Please note, in order to mount this you'd also need the Mounting Bracket and Installation Hardware part # PK12711U. In order to add a controller, I recommend the Curt Assure Trailer Brake Controller part # C49UR with Curt Custom Wiring Adapter for Trailer Brake Controllers part # C51392. This is a complete plug-in play setup that won't require any splicing.
