Installation

T-One Connection Location Points Behind Tail Lights

Once installation is complete, the 4-way flat 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.

I
won't deal with another company!!, you folks as always at least for me, beat the delivery date! The only issue I had and the tech I spoke with said it wasn't possible, was to have a way to have the rear plug work when I tow a trailer with the jeep and not have to switch plugs when I tow the jeep with my motor coach
Great service great product! GREAT COMPANY!!!

CUSTOMER WAS HAPPY WE FIXED THE PROBLEM.

Just like the YouTube video, it was super easy to install. Product description was accurate and harness works great! I'd highly recommend. The only negative I would say is that the information wasn't that detailed when tracking the shipment, but I'm also one of those that likes to know exactly where my shipment is. I would highly recommend Etrailer.com

Talk about no headache with wiring. This was great for my jeep the only issue I had was finding a drill bit long enough to reach the metal inside the light housing to ground the wire. Other than that everything was super clean and straight to the point. I have a 2010 jeep wrangler sport.

by:
2014 Jeep Wrangler

I installed this as part of adding a trailer controller and 7-pin connector; it was needed for some of the 7-pin wiring. This was explained clearly by the eTrailer order taker, who was very helpful. I've written a review of the whole installation for the Universal Installation Kit (ETBC7), but wanted to add a review for this specific part.

This was the easiest part of the whole installation. Simply remove the tail light on my Wrangler, disconnect the wiring, plug this in between the wire and tail light assembly, attach the ground wire, route the connector to the right place, and it's good to go. There's no way to connect anything wrong, short of forgetting to connect it at all, and everything is sturdy and simple.



by:

Good instructions, easily installed. Took me less than 1 hour since you just plug it right into your current light. Running the wires is also easy since their is an opening inside the light area.

No problems! Works great.



by:
2013 Jeep Wrangler

I was very happy with the harness -- it installed quite easily in spite of the fact that I had wired the Jeep up to be towed by my RV years before. This meant that I had already spliced in with wires and diodes, and the cavity behind the tail light was filled with dirt and dried mud from stream crossings made during the past 10 years. Anyway, after getting rid of the dirt and stuff, I found the connector plug shown in the directions and a couple of clicks and everything worked as advertised. I would recommend getting the bracket for mounting the female receptacle at the hitch -- it bolted right up. Also, get some longer zip ties to secure the harness to the frame and keep it away from the muffler.



by:

Works just like described. Very easy to install and completes your hitch installation.

2012 Jeep Wrangler

I ordered a trailer hitch (Item #75515) and related wiring harness (Item 118416) and bracket for my 2012 Jeep Wrangler. I followed the installation directions in the You-tube video, and was able to install the hitch, wiring harness and bracket without a problem. My local Jeep Dealership wanted $495 for parts and installation. I paid just a little over $100.00 for the parts from etrailer. My order arrived quickly, and I was impressed with the high quality of the parts. Nice job etrailer.

Im still using it today!! Works great!!



by:
2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

The curt hitch products I ordered were excellent and a very good value. Install easy but, with my vehicle the muffler had to be lowered and two holes in the frame enlarged to fit the bolts.
The wiring harness was another brand and was easy to install. I routes the 4 wat flat connector to the purchased bracket and mounted directly into the rear frame

The receiver Pin & lock seem to be good quality and the lock attaches quickly and easily

Note - The packaging could have been much better. Other than the curt hitch which was in its own box some items were loose in the box. Two opened items and nothing was packed tight inside the box. Example- the keys and lock cover were missing from the pkg and I found them in the packing material.



by:
2011 Jeep Wrangler

Order received a day after the estimated date. No problem, that's the USPS for you. Installed the harness. The video says about 5 minutes. They are close. The only issue that I had was difficulty finding a place to drill and attach the white ground wire. Basically a plug and play harness. I wish that I had ordered a mounting bracket. The one that is on my 2011 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is a bit large and the plug is too small to stay put once it is in the bracket. Will manufacture something to hold the plug so that it stays in place.

  • 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Trailer Wiring Recommendation
    If your 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK has the factory tow package it would have a square connector at the rear of it for attaching trailer wiring to. For that we have the Pollak 7 and 4-way kit part # HM40975-11933 which will plug right in and be functional. The 4-way kit part # 118416 that you referenced is for versions of the vehicle that do not have the tow package, but it can fit on either style of vehicle as it installs by plugging in line with the taillight connectors on the vehicle.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 75th Anniversary
    The most popular hitch we offer that is a confirmed fit for your 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is the Curt hitch part # 13432. This hitch has the best price by far and is made in the USA so it's a no-brainer if you ask me. This is compatible with your Rubicon bumpers as well. I attached an install video for you to check out as well. If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4-inch rise or 2-inch drop and one...

The longer length of the receiver shaft will better fit under your longer bumper to allow you to have easier access and better fit with your ball mount or other hitch mounted accessories.

    Since your 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited does not have the factory tow package you will need to first add a 4-way connector using # 118416. With a 4-way connector installed you can then install a 7-way/4-way combination connector using the # ETBC7 which will plug into the newly installed 4-way connector and will only require a few more wiring connections. You will need to run the black wire to the battery of your Jeep using the included 7-way connector, ground the white wire to the frame,...

    The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # 118416 is a fit for a 2015 Jeep Wrangler. If you would like to use this to wire in a some type of third brake light then you can do so just note that the stop and turn signals are combined on the same wire so you'd need to separate them with part # PP20-702 or else the light would flash with the turn signals.

What you will have to do is plug in wiring harness # 118416 to one side or the other. On the side it is not plugged into use a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 to locate the wire that carries the turn signal and brake light function.
