CURT Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring - C56011

  • Trailer Hitch Wiring
  • Custom Fit
  • 4 Flat
  • Converter
  • CURT

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly into existing wiring - no cutting, splicing or tapping required. Converter is made using SMT to ensure superior performance.


Features:

  • Provides a 4-way flat trailer connector at the back of your vehicle to power your trailer's signal lights
    • Compatible with 5-pole, 6-pole and 7-pole adapters (sold separately)
  • Connects quickly and easily - no cutting or splicing of wires
    • Locate connection points in rear cargo area
    • Plug in T-connector
  • Includes a tail light converter to ensure that your vehicle's wiring matches that of your trailer
  • Constructed using surface-mount technology (SMT) for consistent, reliable performance
    • Maximizes trailer light yield and intensity while producing minimal heat
    • Ensures superior operation in rough road conditions
  • Comes with dust cap for 4-way flat connector


Specs:

  • Maximum amperage:
    • Stop/turn lights: 3 amps per circuit
    • Tail lights: 6 amps per circuit
  • 1-Year limited warranty


Installation

This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side interior trim panels in your rear cargo area.


Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your cargo area.


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.


Tail Light Converter with Surface-Mount Technology

A tail light converter is built into this T-connector. Because most trailers run on a two-wire system - wherein the brake and turn signals are carried on one wire - the separate brake and turn signals from your vehicle's three-wire system need to be combined so they are compatible with the wiring system of the trailer. This converter combines the brake and turn signal functions of your automobile so that they run on one wire to properly activate your trailer's tail lights. Note: This will not affect how the tail lights on your vehicle operate.


Curt builds each tail light converter using surface-mount technology (SMT). This method of construction involves soldering electronic components directly to the surface of a printed circuit board. SMT eliminates the need for leads, which are used in older through-hole technology. The result is a circuit board that is smaller yet provides more routing area and that offers superior performance, reliability and durability.


Curt SMT Circuit Boards

Circuit boards constructed using SMT have been shown to perform better under rough conditions with excessive vibration than those made using the through-hole method. And where would vibration be more likely to occur than in towing applications? Curt converters also produce less heat, leading to increased durability and longer life. In addition, lower levels of resistance ensure better performance, especially for parts that operate at higher frequencies.


Each Curt circuit board is made using high-quality components that are pieced together in the most technologically savvy fashion, leading to greater predictability and reliability in functioning.

Item was plug and play as advertised. Paper instructions included are marginal. Site provided video was very helpful.

This is my second installation using etrailer; they've been good to deal with each time.

Havent towed anything yet, but the cargo basket is very handy for transporting heavy, dirty matls

This harness did not fit the vehicle (2018 Fiat 124 Spider) it was recomended for. The part was recomended by etrailer.com but did not fit. See picture of packaging, It should have been pretty obviouse this was not going to fit. To return it they wanted to charge me almost $xx. Caution ordering from this web site, if they recomend it and it doesn't fit you are going to pay shipping to return it.

I am sorry to hear that this harness did not fit your 124 Spider. I do see that we do not carry anything on our site that will work on your vehicle. I am not sure how this harness even came into your search, but I will definitely make sure that this mistake will not happen again. As for finding a harness that will work, I would highly recommend contacting Fiat to see if they have a harness that they would recommend.

PLUG and PLAY works great! Install video was key to making it easy to install.
Price was reasonable as well. ZERO issues.



by:
2015 Mazda CX-5

I am quite happy with this wiring kit! It truly is plug and play!!
After watching the video, the install was quick and easy.
I only deviated from the install video, where it concerns the ground wire.
It says to use a drill and make a 3/32 hole and use the self tapping screw, if you can not find an existing place to mount the ground wire.
On the CX-5 there is a perfectly placed nut that can be used, and you dont even need any extra tools above what the kit calls for.
When you pull off the plugs for the drivers side tail lights, you will also see 3 10mm nuts that hold the tail light in place.
Just remove the one below the brake light, and slip the ground wire over it and replace the nut.

I havent had to pull any more trailers, but I have no doubt it will work just fine, the next time I need to unroll it from the spare tire well!

The video was great and the Wiring kit was easy to install.

Love the ETrailer custom wiring kits, easy to install and functions well for many, many years. This is my second kit purchased and am always satisfied with ETrailer’s products.

Very nice quality. Great customer service from etrailer. Always a good experience!

Amazingly easy installation thanks to the video and product. Lights work excellent. Great communication and fast delivery by etrailer. Thank You!



by:

Very easy install, just make sure the ground wire has proper contact with the chassis or you will have issues with trailer lights doing some crazy things.

Ordered a trailer hitch for a Mazda CX-5. The etrailer team was knowledgeable, and I got exactly what I needed. The hitch fits perfectly and works great!



by:

The trailer hitch receiver and wiring harness ordered was promptly delivered in good condition. All parts were brand new and just as described. I was very pleased with the simple ordering process and timely delivery. This company is definitely top-notch and I will be a repeat customer.

Easy to install and works perfect.

(The product is excellent, but the delivery took too long.)

2015 Mazda CX-5

The hitch was great and went on without a problem. Wiring also worked great. Done! I bought from you because of your videos and they made installation so much easier. I am a do it yourselfer but at 73 was thankful for all you information and help via the videos. Would recommend your site to anyone in need of a hitch.

Good quality and plenty long.

Still working perfectly use it a lot because I use my little Mazda to tow my small boat to go fishing.



by:

Fit my car application and fast shipping. Thanks!



by:

Seems to be high quality and perfect fit. I have hauled a few things with it, no problem. My advice is to just fully remove the muffler instead of dropping it. If you are installing it in your driveway like I did. It was very difficult to get leverage to squeeze it into place, but once I pulled the muffler, easy.

Bought for 2015 Honda Accord. The plugs did not match the vehicle. Confirmed that it was corrrect and was told Honda screwed up and to splice it in.

Jenny N.

I am sorry that it needed to be spliced. Does your Honda Accord have LED tail lights? If it has LED tail lights then you would need part # C56173.



by:

Wiring was easy, aside from some inevitable tight quarters gaining access to the rear of the taillights to connect everything.



by:
2015 Mazda CX-5

Super easy to install. Still need to test it with a trailer though.

Works great! Detailed instructions.

  • 7-Way Trailer Wiring Recommendation for 2015 Mazda CX-5
    We have a way you can install a 7-way on your 2015 Mazda CX-5 but not all vehicles have custom fit 7-ways made for them so you'd have to start with the more common 4-way like the part # C56011 which is custom fit for your vehicle. From there you'd need to convert it to a 7-way like what your trailer needs. If the trailer does not have brakes all you need is the # 37185 which plugs right into the 4-way and you'd be set. If the trailer does have brakes you'd instead need the # ETBC7 which...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness For A 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander
    The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK46VR is confirmed to fit your 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander per the manufacturer. I like the T-One harness over the other harnesses because it has a more reliable powered converter box that will give you a longer running time than the others. This custom harness will plug into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side tail lights. You will have to remove the tail light assemblies to access this harness....

  • Recommended Equipment Needed for Pull a Trailer With 2 Coupler With a 2013 Honda Civic Sedan Si
    For a trailer hitch receiver that is confirmed to fit your 2013 Honda Civic I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit # C11391 which is a Class I, 1-1/4 inch hitch receiver. Since all of the Euro ball mounts fit a Class II hitch receiver you will need to use a different style. The Draw-Tite # 3593 ball mount is what we recommend using. You can use part # 19258 for a 2 inch diameter hitch ball. Don't forget that you will also need trailer wiring as well. Since your Civic...

  • Where Does a Tail Light Trailer Wiring Harness Install on a 2013 Honda Accord
    For a 2013 Honda Accord you should be using Curt wiring harness # C56011 or Tow Ready harness # 118420. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view. The connectors on the right side should be directly behind the trunk panels and trim that you have to pull out of the way just like on the drivers side. The Curt harness # C55502 only goes up to the 2012 Honda Accord.

  • Recommended Ball Mount For Curt Hitch On 2013 Honda Accord
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11681 is a confirmed fit for your 2013 Honda Accord. With this hitch, you won't be able to get to the standard 17 inch height you mentioned, however, the best ball mount option is the Curt Class II Drawbar - 2-5/8" Rise, 3-1/4" Drop - 7-1/4" Long - 3,500 lbs # C45521. This will put the base of the hitch ball at just over 13-3/4 inches so you will be within a decent towing height and the vast majority of trailers are not...

  • Recommended Tow Bar Wiring For 2013 Honda Fit Being Flat-Towed
    The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness, part # C56011 is designed to work with your Honda Fit to tow a trailer behind the vehicle. This harness is not designed for operating the lights on your Fit while it is being towed. For that you would need tow bar wiring. When you flat-tow your Honda, you will need kit like part # 154-792-118158. This is a diode kit and includes the converter needed for your Honda with separate wire(meaning the brake light bulb is separate from the turn signal)....

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring Harness For a 2014 Honda Accord Sedan EX-L
    The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24899 is going to be the least obvious receiver for your 2014 Honda Accord EX-L Sedan. Draw-Tite recommends their Drawbar # 3593 used in the rise position with either a 1-7/8" Hitch Ball # 19256 or 2" Hitch Ball # 19258 to match the trailer coupler. The Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness C56011 that you found will give you a 4-way flat connector.

  • Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2013 Honda Accord Sedan without LED Tail Lights
    Curt does list wiring harness # C56011 as a fit for the 2013 Honda Accord sedan. The packaging might not be updated yet is all but it does fit. This harness actually fits numerous vehicles which is why the pictures in the instructions, linked for reference, may not look exactly like your vehicle. The instructions also list the coupe model but again the application guide goes up to 2012 for the coupe and then includes the sedan, without LED tail lights, for 2013.

    There are two wiring harnesses for your 2013 Mazda CX-5 and the correct one will actually depend on if your Mazda has LED taillights as opposed to the trailer you are pulling. So you can use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56011 on your '13 Mazda CX-5 so long as the vehicle does not have LED taillights. If your Mazda does have LED taillights you will need the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118563, and...

  • Comparing Tow Ready # 118563 and Curt # C56011 Wiring Harnesses for 2016 Mazda CX-5
    The Tow Ready T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118563 is a correct fit for your 2016 Mazda CX-5. The other harness offered, Curt # C56011, does not fit your 2016 CX-5 due to a change in connectors from the 2015 model year. Note that there are two major advantages to using the Tow Ready harness. First, this harness will isolate and protect your new vehicle's wiring from any potential shorts or overloads from the trailer because it draws power for the trailer directly from the battery, not...

  • Easier to Install Trailer Wiring Harness for 2015 Mazda CX-5
    You're correct, the Curt wiring harness for your 2015 Mazda CX-5, part # C56011, does not have a power wire that connects to the vehicle battery like the Tekonsha, part # 118563. In most cases I'd recommend the Tekonsha even though the install is more involved. Most Tekonsha wiring harnesses have a converter box that mounts to the vehicle with a screw that keeps it much more secure than the double sided tape that Curt commonly uses. In this case, both harnesses use tape so I'd go ahead...

The issue you are describing sounds like a ground issue. Please make sure that the ground you are using is a clean bare metal surface without any paint present. This is more than likely the cause of your problem. Before attaching the ground screw, sand the surface down with some 80 grit sandpaper to remove any connection inhibiting material....

Instead you will need the Tekonsha ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT which is confirmed to fit the hybrid models.
