Trailer wiring harness part #118382 - any local Auto Parts Store should care this.
It is the round connector, with a cover over it, about 6 inches left of and about at the same level as the hitch receiver.
under the car,behind spare tire,is the wiring harness with access plug for dodge trailer harness (optional) my came with 2012 journey
Subarus all have a connector for a trailer wiring harness built in. There is a supplemental trailer harness that you purchase from your hitch supplier and it just plugs right in. Instructions are available on-line. This one is for a 2001, but they have been the same for a number of years.
you have to remove the back driver trim in the back of the jeep..........you will find a green plug, the aftermarket wiring will plug into that.......................good luck
The trailer wiring kit is available from Jeep at about $125 and plugs into a wiring connector accessible through a panel in the left rear (inside) fender panel (behind the spare tire, near the left rear turn signal) with the trailer wiring harness routed through a grommet in the bottom of the compartment
Do not purchase a universal harness. Purchase an OEM type trailer harness for your ride and it will fit perfectly and be basically a plug in type. It will cost more but is worth it. The instructions that come with it will describe in detail the installation. The 2002 - 2005's are the same. hitches4less sells the OEM wiring harness. It is basically a plug-and-play installation. Unlike other harnesses, however, the liberty also has a ground wire and a "hot" wire from the converter. After plugging the harness into the exiting plugs, you have to ground the converter, and then run a hot wire (with an inline fuse) to the battery. This hot wire, as per mfgr. provide power to the trailer lights.
The easiest and best thing to do is to buy the harness that just fits into the factory wiring. It's avaible at most parts stores and it isn't expensive. That way you don't have to cut and splice.
I have a 2005 Subaru Legacy GT (Wagon) and haven't been able to find a hitch. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? If I am able to find a hitch, I would then try to get the Outback trailer hitch wiring harness from my Subaru dealer. I would expect the wiring in the two cars to be the same, but I suppose they could be different. I noticed the Legacy wagons don't have the rear 12 volt jack that the Outbacks have. This is something I'd like to add too for one of those electric coolers. That would be nifty I think. Thanks . . .
I bought a trailer hitch for mine and it came with a wiring harness that plugs into an existing plug inside the driver side rear hatch panel area. It didn't work and would not override the third brakelight like it was supposed to. So I just bought some electrical connectors and wired direct into the existing wiring after removing the rear tail lights. Make sure you have enough wiring to reach the center of your hitch and some slack. Throw away the harness that comes with the hitch, it will be too much of a pain and probably won't work anyway.
A wiring diagram for the trailer hitch on a 98 Explorer can be purchased at your local auto parts store. A repair book for the make and model of your vehicle will have the diagram included in it.
Plug in the trailer harness into the 7 pin hookup next to the receive hitch if you have a stock towing package.
Yes, but you need to have the correct trailer hitch and wiring installed. Talk to your local VW Dealer and they can help you with this.
