Review on 🚦 High-performance CURT 56146 Powered Trailer Tail Light Converter, 3-to-2-Wire Splice-in with 4-Pin Wiring Harness by Christopher Lott

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Adding Curt to the prepared wiring was pretty easy. The trailer is new to me but used

This was my solution for a 2006 Honda Element. 2005-6 didn't come with a trailer setup. I routed a wire from the battery and attached it to the left signal, brake, parking and ground behind the rear cab, driver's side, body panel. The correct signal should come from the right side of the car, but that was all done before the Curt converter was installed. Adding Curt to the prepared wiring was pretty easy. The trailer is new to me but used. I checked the connections on the bumper connector on the Element and they all worked fine before hooking up the trailer. then hooked up the trailer and the right turn signal didn't come out of the curt converter. I checked the turn signal input. simply good. I should have a short in this trailer. Oh my god I'm redoing the right end of the trailer! So the trailer most likely destroyed the correct signal circuit in Kurt. Better this $25 thing than wrecking a Honda. If you are familiar with automotive aftermarket installation, this is not difficult at all.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
