Question:

I need a trailor harness for my 2014 GMC Acadia. Watching your video, the connection should be on the passenger side aft, between the frame and body. I dont see anything there. Could there be another location?

It sounds like you are definitely on the right track. On a 2014 GMC Acadia The plug for the wiring harness # C56245 should be behind a trim panel behind the passenger side wheel. Sometimes locating these plugs can be tricky, and vehicle manufacturers do not make it easy. It is recommended to remove the rear passenger side tire to free up some space to work. You will need to remove a few screws from the wheel well trim panel to access the connector. Even if your vehicle does not have any type of factory tow package, the connector should be under there.

I have included a link to the installation instructions for the # C56245.
