Hey Scott. To add a trailer wiring harness to your 2009 Nissan Murano, you'll want the Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness item # 55571 you were looking at. This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your Nissan's wiring harness behind the tail lights on both the driver's side and passenger's side. It will provide you with a 4-way connector.

Every wiring harness for your Murano requires a wire to be ran directly to the battery. There's no power to the control module if you skip this step. If you shortcut this step and connect to a closer power source that isn't that battery you'll eventually blow out the control module.

I have linked an installation video below so you can see the process for getting this harness setup.

What kind of trailer do you have?
