Question:
I have a 2015 Nissan Xterra and I dont have any power for my running lights from the factory trailer adapter that is on the left side of the spare tire. I saw a post about a relay but my Xterra doesnt have a socket to the left of the steering column.

Hey Tom,
Your Xterra likely just need some relays plugged into the fuse panel located behind the passenger side kick panel. I've attached a short video below where Conner installs the relays from Curt's wire harness # C56225 and will show you how to access the relay location.
