How Long Does it Take to Professionally Install Trailer Wiring on a 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan

Question:

COULD YOU TELL ME THE TIME IT TAKES TO INSTALL? HAVE A TECH HERE THAT HAS SPENT 3 HOURS SO FAR INSTALLING AND STILL NOT DONE.

Installation of wiring harness # C56331 on any given vehicle depends on how the power wire is routed from the back of the vehicle to the front of the vehicle. It does take some time. If the tech just zip ties the wire to the bottom of the vehicle, then it should not take very long at all, definitely not 3 hours. But if he takes care in where the wire gets ran to protect it, I could see it taking that long.

Also, there could be unforeseen complications that extend the installation time. And if the tech has not installed a trailer wiring harness before then that could also extend the installation time.
