CURT Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring - C55381

  • Trailer Hitch Wiring
  • Custom Fit
  • 4 Flat
  • No Converter
  • CURT

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly into 7-way OEM tow package wiring harness - no cutting, splicing or tapping required.


Features:

  • Provides a 4-way flat trailer connector at the back of your vehicle to power your trailer's signal lights
    • Designed for use with a factory tow package that has a 7-way connector
    • Retains 7-way connector functionality
  • Connects quickly and easily - no cutting or splicing of wires
    • Locate connection points behind rear bumper
    • Plug in T-connector
  • Comes with dust cap for 4-way flat connector
  • Limited 1-year warranty


Installation

This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's factory tow package wiring harness, which is located behind the rear bumper. Simply plug the harness in-line with your existing 7-way wiring harness.


Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed beneath your vehicle, near the trailer hitch. A mounting bracket (sold separately) is recommended to keep the connector secure.


It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring To Pull a U-Haul Trailer With a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 Reg Cab 6' Bed
    Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 14361 will fit your 2006 Dodge Ram 1500. It is a class IV 2" receiver that is rated for a trailer weight of 10,000lbs and 1,000lbs of tongue weight. With a weight distribution hitch the capacity increases to 12,000lbs of trailer weight and 1,200lbs of tongue weight. Be sure to reach out to a Dodge dealer with your VIN so that they can give you the maximum weight capacities of your Ram 1500. The Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41929...

  • Adding a 4- and 7-Way Connector and Brake Controller to a 2009 Nissan Pathfinder with 4-Way Only
    Since your 2009 Nissan Pathfinder already has a factory 4-Way you can use # 118267 to install a 7-Way. But to retain the use of a 4-Way you would need to replace the 7-Way that comes with the harness with # HM40950. Or you could use an adapter like you said such as # PK12716. It is not likely that the 7-Way or 7-Way and 4-Way would fit in the factory location but # HM40950 does have a mounting bracket included. For a brake controller I highly recommend a proportional controller over a...

  • Curt Trailer Wiring Harnesses that Fit 2004 Dodge Dakota
    If your 2004 Dodge Dakota has a factory 7-way the trailer wiring harness part # C55381 would fit and work well to provide you with a 4-way. If instead you did not have a 7-way you would want the part # 55323 which plugs inline with the taillight harnesses of your truck.

  • Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2007 Dodge Durango without Factory Tow Package
    Curt trailer wiring harness # C55381 will only fit your 2007 Dodge Durango if it came with the factory tow package. If you cannot find that factory connector anywhere then it is likely that your model does not have the factory tow package and you will need a different harness. For a model without the factory tow package I recommend Tow Ready wiring harness # 118390. I have included a link to a video showing how it installs as well as a link to the installation instructions for you.

  • Turn Signals on 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Stop Working After Towing Boat Trailer for Awhile
    You mentioned that you are towing a boat trailer. When you go to launch the boat are the trailer tail lights submerged under water and, if so, do you leave the trailer connected to the 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee when launching the boat? If the answer to either question is yes then what could be happening is a short and/or interrupted ground from submerging the tail lights. Once it all dries out or you disconnect the trailer that problem goes away. If feasible you can try towing the boat...

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Lighting with 4-Pole Connector and 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    The most common causes for trailer lighting issues like yours are corrosion on one or both of the connectors or a bad ground connection at the car or trailer. The linked article may be helpful to you as you troubleshoot. When troubleshooting trailer lighting it is usually easiest to disconnect the trailer from the vehicle and test each individually. Inspect both car and trailer side connectors for even slight greenish or whitish discoloration on the contacts. Clean as required; you can...

  • Installing Curt C55381 4-Pole Trailer Wiring Harness on 2006 Jeep Liberty.
    Remove the bolts or screws holding the existing 7-way trailer connector to its bracket, and locate the connector plugged into the rear of the 7-way. Find the red locking tab on the connector, and slide it to the side and pull the connector away from the 7-way plug. The plugs on the # C55381 would plug inline, so plug one end into the harness you unplugged and the other into the back of the 7-way. Be sure to slide those locking tabs back into place. Then, reattach the 7-way to its bracket. The...

  • Where on 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee to Connect Curt 4-Pole Trailer Wiring Harness # C55381
    Trailer wiring harnesses like the Curt # C55381 that have a T-connector allow for quick plug-in installation at the rear of the vehicle. This harness connects to wiring located under the vehicle, behind the bumper on the drivers side. The harness will have a connector similar to that on the Curt harness.

    To add a 4-way to your 2019 Ram 5500 you'd want to go with the part # 118384 which instead of plugging inline with the square connector would plug inline between the round connectors right behind the 7-way.

  • Wiring Harness Installation for 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    If you have a factory tow package on your 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee, installation is a simple quick connect into the existing wiring using something like the # C55381 or # 20135 depending on whether you want a 7 or 4 way pole connector. If you do not have a factory tow package, I recommend the # C55369 which can be connected into your vehicle's brake lights in the rear cargo area. See link below for installation video. We have several hitch options if you do not already have one. I...

  • Troubleshooting Non-Functioning Left Side Tow Package Trailer Lighting Circuits on 2008 Jeep Command
    I'd start by going into the fuse block in the engine compartment. The fuses that protect the left trailer tow stop/turn signal circuits is located in location number 19 in that fuse box. Examine the fuse and replace if needed, but BEFORE plugging the trailer back in, you'll want to closely examine the wiring carrying the left side stop/turn/taillights on the trailer to find the short circuit that caused the fuse to blow in the first place. If you plug in the trailer without locating and...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness Recommendation for a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited
    There are many wiring harnesses available for your 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited, but in order to determine which wiring harness is correct for your truck, we will want to know what your truck was originally equipped with. The Curt T-Connector Wiring Harness, # C55381, was designed for models that were equipped with a factory tow package. If your Jeep came with a factory tow package and trailer wiring and you are looking to replace a wiring harness, then this is the correct harness...

  • Trailer Connector Recommendation for 2004 Dodge Sprinter
    We don't offer any OEM products, but the Tekonsha # 20135 is a plug and play 7-way trailer connector that also offers a 4 pin trailer connector. This connector is compatible with your 2004 Dodge Sprinter. You'll find that this trailer connector is likely considerably less expensive than the OEM option, which typically doesn't offer a 4 pin connector in addition to the 7-way. If you click the provided link, you can see a description video of the # 20135 7-way/4 pin trailer connector I...

    The Curt hitch # 13326 that you referenced is indeed the correct Class III hitch for your 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 built in July 2002. This hitch offers a 500-lb tongue weight (TW) capacity and includes the required installation hardware. I have linked an installation video for you showing an application in your same truck. Two helpful hitch installation articles are included as well. If you'll be towing you'll need a ball mount and hitch ball. The recommended ball mount for this hitch is part...

  • Is There a Plug and Play 7/4-Way Connector For a 2019 Chevrolet Colorado?
    For a harness like the Curt # C55381 we do have the Hopkins # HM11141164 but this will require running a power wire. While it is not quite plug and play simple the Hopkins Multi-Tow 7-Way Blade and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector # HM11141144 is really the easiest to install. All the wires needed to connect to on your 2019 Chevrolet Colorado are blunt cut at the rear of the truck. The included butt connectors make connecting to these wires very simple and then you can place the connector in...

  • Trailer Hitch & Wiring For 2008 Dodge Dakota
    How much your 2008 Dodge Dakota can tow also depends on its model, cab size, and wheelbase, so it's not possible for me to answer what your towing capacity without all the information. A call to your local Dodge dealer should clarify it though. To tow use Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13230 and Vehicle Wiring Harness # C55381.

  • How to Confirm Trailer Wiring Configuration to Match 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    Trailer wiring often uses a particular wire color for a particular function, such as a white wire for ground, but there is no absolute rule that this will be the case. For this reason, testing with a circuit tester like # PTW2993 is recommended. In the case of a trailer, you can use a spare battery (or your Grand Cherokee battery) to test each trailer circuit to see what light activates with the 12V input power applied. The linked trailer wiring article illustrates the various connector...
