Set up: Hopkins Plug-In Simple Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package on a 2019 Toyota Highlander Video

Yes, the Tow Ready Wiring Harness part #118449 that you referenced has been confirmed as a fit for your 2010 Toyota Highlander so I would recommend it for you. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

Installing a 4 pin trailer wiring harness is a plug and play proposition on all models of your generation of Highlander. Since your Highlander doesn't have the trailer package, you'd want to use #118449 which installs using the two connectors…

The etrailer hitch part #e98844 is a confirmed fit for your Highlander since your spare is steel. The magnet test you performed proves it is steel since it wouldn't stick to aluminum. The aluminum wheel spare is just too wide which is why they…

Yes, the Hopkins 4-way part #HM11141825 that you referenced will simply plug right into the port at the rear of your 2018 Toyota Highlander and then you'd be ready to go. I attached a picture of where you'll find the port at for the harness…

From what I could find out about the wheels on the Haul-Master trailers, they do utilize a 5.30-12 tire and wheel combo. The Kenda 5.30-12 with 5 on 4 1/2 bolt pattern #AM30740 will definitely fit. That being said, it does have a B weight rating,…

The Hopkins Wiring #HM11141995 and Curt Wiring #C56331 for your 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan install the same way but the Curt wiring is much more reliable, which is something you can see right away since the Curt has a 1-year warranty and the Hopkins is…

To find the reverse light circuit on a vehicle is pretty easy but it may take digging around in the door panels or interior panels of the vehicle. What you need to do is find the wires that lead into the reverse lights on your vehicle. Test both of…

Odd that your trailer has hydraulic surge brakes and a 7-way, but you do not need a trailer brake controller unless your trailer has electric brakes. So all you need for your 2016 Toyota Highlander with the factory tow package is a 4-way and then a…

Great question. Let me cover brake activation first. If you wish to have active braking on a hydraulic system when backing up, you would need to have Electric over Hydraulic brakes and not a surge brake coupler. Surge brake couplers do not allow…

The easiest way to find the reverse wire circuit is to use a circuit tester like part #PTW2993. If your back up light is a separate light at the rear of your Highlander, use the circuit tester to check the wire when the truck is in reverse. Have…
