etrailer | Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness Installation - 2018 Ford F-150

[@freddygill3425]

Excellent video. Clear, organized, easy to understand. I especially like that you included the possibility of fuse missing at end of video. Could you include what signal looks like from a brake contoller that is working, and how to test with an analog multimeter and/or digital?

[@freddygill3425]

Suggest a quick note to viewers that the tire will need to be lowered and removed even though it will become obvious as they do the install. Helps 'em to get a feel for how long it will take. Thanks for your video!!!

[@etrailer]

Thank you for the feedback. We will keep this in mind for this video and for the future. Lowering the spare tire will make the install easier. www.etrailer.com/Custom-Fit-Vehicle-Wiring/Curt/C56413.html

Hi Ryan, I purchased a CURT 56413 Vehicle-Side Custom RV Blade 7-Pin Trailer Wiring Harness, but doesn't work. Which model will fit a 2006 F-150? Thanks

[@etrailer]

The Curt # C56413 is a fit for the 2015-2020 Ford F-150, so it won't work on a 2006 model. For your 2006, use # HM40975 if you have the round US CAR connector located behind the rear bumper. If you don't have the connector, you'll need to hardwire the 7-way using # HM40975-11998. www.etrailer.com/Custom-Fit-Vehicle-Wiring/Hopkins/HM40975-11998.html www.etrailer.com/tv-install-trailer-wiring-2008-ford-f250-hm40975-11998.aspx

I have a 2018 f150 and installed this exactly as it was in the video but am Not receiving any power to the 7-way connector. The trailer I am towing has a break control. Any suggestions?

[@etrailer]

Are you using a 7-way to 4 pole adapter like # 37185? Which brake controller are you using? www.etrailer.com/Trailer-Wiring/Hopkins/37185.html

[@BrandonButler-pr9of]

@@etrailer No, I am not. I have the Curt 51180 Wireless Break Controller. Do I need something like #37185?

[@etrailer]

@@BrandonButler-pr9of If you have a 7-way installed but the Curt # C51180 Echo Brake Controller isn't working, use a circuit tester on the 1:00 position. If it's not showing power, you'll need to run a circuit from that pin to the positive battery terminal via a 40 amp breaker like # 9510. Hope that helps! www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/Pollak/9510.html

Does the vehicle need to be equipped with the trailer control in the cab of the truck for it to be able to plug into the factory harness?

[@etrailer]

You will only need the brake controller if you plan to haul a trailer with brakes. www.etrailer.com/Custom-Fit-Vehicle-Wiring/Curt/C56413.html

So does the factory 4 pole connector still work after plugging in the harness for the 7pole connector? I seen somewhere that they both will work but I’ve also seen that the 4 pole will no longer work.

[@etrailer]

The trucks factory 4 pole will not work when this harness is connected. You can use a 7 and 4 pole trailer connector with this harness so that you have both functioning plugs. www.etrailer.com/Custom-Fit-Vehicle-Wiring/Curt/C56413.html www.etrailer.com/Custom-Fit-Vehicle-Wiring/Hopkins/HM40975.html

[@N8Vrhino]

So where did the mounting bracket come from that’s in the video?

[@etrailer]

Check out the following link to see the mounting bracket that was used. www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/Pollak/PK12711U.html

[@aaronfonner8924]

How foes the factory 4 way secured to the bracket. Seems like it would just keep falling out

[@aaronweaver902]

curts 55774 part number with the uscar plug says it fits my 2019 f150 but mine has plugs like this why?

[@etrailer]

The Curt 55774 is designed for vehicles that are designed with the factory US car connector and the 7 way plug. The kit shown in the video is for trucks with the factory tow ready package. www.etrailer.com/Custom-Fit-Vehicle-Wiring/Curt/C56413.html

[@luismcolato]

Is there a 7 way harness for a 2020 f150

[@etrailer]

This harness will also fit the 2020 Ford F-150. www.etrailer.com/Custom-Fit-Vehicle-Wiring/Curt/C56413.html
