Yes, the Curt 56218 is designed for Ford Transit Connect vehicles (SUVs, Mini & Full-Sized Vans category). The harness connects to the vehicle's existing taillight wiring connectors on both driver and passenger sides.
The Curt 56218 has a maximum rating of 3.0 amps per side for signal circuits and 6.0 amps total for tail/running circuits. The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum fuse. Do not exceed the product rating or the tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower, as exceeding this can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire.
Yes, you must disconnect the negative battery terminal before beginning installation. This is the first step in the installation process and is essential for safety.
You will need a Phillips screwdriver and a flat blade screwdriver. The manual also recommends having a test light or properly wired trailer available to test the harness for proper function after installation.
1. Remove the plastic access cover behind the rear cargo doors to locate the vehicle taillight wiring harness connectors. 2. Separate the connectors from the taillight housing, taking care not to damage the locking tabs. 3. Insert the custom wiring harness end (yellow wire for driver side, green wire for passenger side) between the separated connectors. 4. Ensure the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Repeat this process on both the driver and passenger sides.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the taillight connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame. If no suitable point exists, drill a 3/32" pilot hole. The area must be free of rust, dirt and paint. Secure the white ground wire using the ring terminal and provided screw.
Drilling may be required for the ground wire connection. You may need to drill a 3/32" pilot hole if no suitable existing screw with nut is available in the vehicle frame near the taillight connector. Before drilling, check for miscellaneous items that may be hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
The black converter box is part of the Curt 56218 harness system. It should be adhered to a flat spot inside the vehicle near the taillight using the provided double-sided tape.
The black power wire from the vehicle battery should be routed according to the included CME-PCL-INS sheet, which provides detailed routing instructions. This sheet is included with the harness and must be consulted for proper battery connection and fuse installation.
When not in use, roll up the 4-flat connector and store it in a convenient, out-of-the-way location inside the trunk. When in use, route the 4-flat to the center of the vehicle and out of the trunk. Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties.
Test the harness for proper function using a test light or by connecting a properly wired trailer. All installation steps must be followed to ensure the wiring harness functions properly before testing.
The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a maximum of 10 amps. Exceeding this rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire.
Open the rear cargo doors and remove the scuff panel by pulling out on the bottom and then up. Take care not to damage the alignment tabs on the back. After routing the wiring harness and completing the taillight connections, reinstall the scuff panel.
Yes, after reinstalling all items removed during installation, reconnect the negative battery terminal. Also install the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion.
