Question:
I’m looking for a 7-pin wiring harness for my 2011 Acura MDX but have only been able to find 4-pin kits on your site. Do you sell 7-pin harnesses for this vehicle? I’m looking to tow a Coleman pop-up trailer with a round 7-pin connector.

Expert Reply:
The 4-Way # C56038 is going to need to be combined with the 7-Way Kit # ETBC7 you found to be able to tow your Coleman pop-up behind your 2011 Acura MDX. While we do not have a single kit for a 7-way the 4-way ties into the wiring for the brake lights, turn signals and running lights. Then the 7-way kit you found will provide the wiring for a charge line as well as a brake controller like the Redarc Liberty # RED52VR. I personally prefer this type of controller for your Acura as it only uses a small dash mounted control knob rather than a large control box mounted to the dash.
