The older versions of the Echo did not have the required bracket to install a strap. If you went with a newer version of the #C51180 you'd have improved connectivity as that was one of the other things they improved around time they added the…
It sounds as though there is a short or something is mis-wired. Using a circuit tester, like the #PTW2993, check the connection points in the vehicle side connector, to see if there is constant power on the running light circuit (brown wire on the…
What you are experiencing is due to the fact that LED taillights only require a very small amount of amperage to illuminate. A tiny amount can cause them to illuminate. Trailer wring for the most part goes totally dead when the vehicle is off. But…
This can occur with some Curt wiring harnesses. On a trailer with LED lights the lights may be dimly lit when the vehicle is off because the harness has a direct connection to the battery and there is some power to the 4-Way all the time. If the…
I suspect your problem is caused by a damaged or corroded trailer connector. Take a look at your trailer connectors, both the socket on your truck as well as the plug on the trailer. Look for green or white corrosion on the pins or sockets of the…
To add a hitch to your 2016 Mercedes-Benz Metris, I recommend the Curt item #C13276. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Metris with included hardware. It is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver, that has a 6,000 lbs towing capacity and a…
I do have an option for you but the SpeedKnob is not something that you can just replace with a standard hitch pin lock. The SpeedKnob serves two purposes, to lock the bike rack inside the receiver tube and to wedge the shank against the inside of…
There should be five wires on your trailer side connector, a white wire which is for a ground, the yellow/brown and green/brown are for the running lights, a green wire for the right turn/stop light, and a yellow wire for the left turn/stop light…
Start by testing the 7-way on your truck, because the only pin that should be lighting up when you apply the manual override is the pin in the 5 o'clock position, which is the brake controller output wire; there should not be power to the running…
If your trailer has separate turn signals from the brake lights and you want them to remain that way, you will need to use a special converter. On the trailer side, behind the 7-Way, you will attach the Vehicle to Vehicle Taillight Converter,…
By clips, I'm assuming you mean the vehicle specific portion of a roof rack that fastens the foot pack to the vehicle. Unfortunately, Yakima discontinued their Q Towers a couple of years ago, and the currently available vehicle clips aren't…
There isn't any type of special removal available for a stuck Yakima lock core, as it sounds like you tried the only remedy that we generally suggest, which is a lubricant. Otherwise, the only way to remove it really is by having it drilled out;…
