Hey Paul, thanks so much for the purchase from etrailer of the Curt T-Connector # C56251 for your 2016 Kia Sportage. It isn't going to be the converter that is bad if just the turn signals don't work. It could be the ground being bad; make sure the ground to the driver side light is attached to bare metal surfaces and free of any paint, dirt or corrosion. Also check both your vehicle and trailer connectors for corrosion, which can be green or white in color - a build-up of corrosion can interfere with the signals.
I have added a link below to a help article on troubleshooting which I also recommend taking a look at.
