Installation
This custom-fit T-One connector plugs 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.
Once you've plugged in the T-connector, run the hot lead up to your car battery. Connect the lead to the included fuse holder, and then connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal on your battery and insert the provided fuse.
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.
A ModuLite power module is built into this T-One 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 your trailer. This power module functions as a tail light converter to combine 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.
With a ModuLite, your trailer's lights will be powered without overloading your vehicle's electrical system. Because the module draws power directly from your car's battery and bypasses the electrical routes that are used by a basic wiring harness, there is virtually no draw on your tail light circuits.

Does not properly fit 2021 Ford Edge.
Mike L - 10/13/2022Everything is that is needed to get the job done is included. But, it feels like a generic kit and not a vehicle specific one. The wires are much longer than needed leading to a bundled up wad zip tied near the box. I wish it came with a holder for the 4-pin. Once you figure out what angle to pull the tail light adapters up at, it isn't too terrible. The biggest drawback is the black rectangle nonsense near the plugs. Whoever decided on that shape never actually installed it. Running the +12 from the battery was a little tricky. Once you get it down along the firewall it gets easier. I ran it along the brake and fuel lines staying as far away from the exhaust as I could. Once you get to the bottom of the car, the clips that hold the lines have a center section which you can push the wire into and it will retain it. I loosened the long insulation panel on the driver's side and ran it to the back.
This was, by far, much harder than installing the actual hitch but that difficulty had nothing to do with the product but with the car. The product had everything that I needed. They are making things in the new cars so compacted and unaccessible that it is very difficult to find a good path, even with the video. Coming down through the engine compartment was the hardest. Ford did not make it easy.
One thing that I did that was contrary to the video was that instead of trying to pull the ends of the wiring with the connections on them, I cut them off with about 6" of wire left on the connectors. Pulling the wires was much easier in the tighter spaces. I used water tight, heat shrinkable butt connectors to reconnect the ends. This also allowed me to cut the wiring to the length I actually needed and I did not have to secure a lot of extra wiring after the job was complete.
Installed in 1 hour. Lights took 2 but I was being careful. Great kit, all the gear worked great. Good instructions to use the cheater wires. Nice product. Thx. Gold star!!!
Plenty of links to the wire and once I got the tail light assembly off it was easy to install
Fit great however, it took longer than the advertised 45 minutes to install. I even had it up on a hydraulic lift.
Gerald - 01/22/2021Way too complicated. Kit says run a 12 volt from battery to box at back of car. This car has way too many computer controlled devices to be doing, wasted my money !
Excellent customer service and speedy d elivery!
It's excellent quality and fits perfect ly.
We are very happy with the product on our 2019 Ford Edge Titanium. The videos and detailed install reviews posted by others made it a fairly straight forward process. We are in our late 60's and finished installing the hitch and running these wires in about 2 hours. The hardest part was figuring out how to get a grip on the streamlined tail light lens to pull it off the car for access to the wiring connectors. Rubber gardening gloves helped! Oh also - when testing the lights - remember to lower your tongue onto the hitch or the continuity won't be there for the lights to actually work. Parking next to it didn't do the job.
This will be the third one which I have installed. First off, there is no need to run any wires outside the vehicle except the harness which runs to the trailer. Keep everything inside. Remove rubber liftgate sealing strip and plastic strip where latch is. Pull back interior side panels. The Ford engineer who designed the wiring harness path should be fired. Route wires through the hole where those funny shaped doors with the rubber flappers are. A 12 volt source is on the drivers side panel, however I used a plug rather than cut wires. I will never again purchase a vehicle without a trailer package, I'm getting too old for this .
Installed on my 2019 Ford Edge Titanium. Watch the installation videos and take your time. The tail lights do need to be removed but do exactly what the video says and they will pop off. Tips: 1) the video says to be careful not to let the existing wiring connector that goes to the tail light fall into the hollow of the car body. You actually need to let it drop down so the wiring harness can be pulled through. Once the harness is pulled through use needle nose pliers to pull it back up. It does not drop far. 2) I attached the module with a machine screw, lock washer, large washer and nut to a large existing hole in the under carriage. I did not want to trust the adhesive pad provided. 3) Make sure that you heat shrink the connectors to prevent corrosion of the wire ends. I also used dielectric grease (perhaps an overkill). Everything works great!
This is a nice kit. Installation went pretty smoothly. The trickiest part is getting the Y connectors up behind the bumper to the taillights. My tip - be sure to remove the zip tie between the 2 connectors, and arrange in a way where you can pull the plugs through one by one. There is a rectangular isolator at the Y which wants to be inline with the second plug as you try to pull it through. They have to come seperately and that isolator only fits one way. Also, once you get it to the void behind the bumper, there is no turning back (they aren't easily coming out the bottom), so tape it well and be prepared - it's a tight squeeze but it works.
This is my second Edge installation and it is a pain having to run the power feed all the way to the front, but alas it works so just plan on another 30 minutes of snaking it across the chassis. Also, finding a route down from the battery isn't a cake walk - I ended up getting my snake into the wheel well, but once there I was able to get the wire behind the splash panels with 3 screws, so it all worked out!
It works great. The installation was super easy. The instructions and guides were simple to understand very helpful.
The trailer hitch and wiring harness I ordered from etrailer is perfect and was easy to install. there was more then one to choose from and Phyllis was extremely helpful in assisting me with getting the right one. Thank you!!
Worked out great. Watching the video is a must. I did this on a garage floor with the driver side raised in front.
Would have saved a lot of time if I had a car lift.
Painless ordering process and quick shipping. Not etrailer's fault but when the product was delivered the box was damaged, as a result part of the coating on the mounting brackets was rubbed off down to the metal. Will have to coat after mounting the hitch onto my vehicle so it won't rust.
Great products and the best pricing. Very quick ship!!
Appears to be a very nice easy to install harness. On line video of installation makes almost fool proof Very fast service. Would highly recommend
Works great but helps to have a lift. Have to fish the wires through some tight spots. That’s the Edge not the kit!
I was impressed with how quickly I received the items for my trailer hitch. No "hitches" at all.
on time delivery installed- my wife approves nothing else to say all good bobby platt
Perfect fit, easy to follow directions and installation took just about as long as estimated..
