These dependable custom hitches are manufactured for 2016-2019 Chevrolet Volt and attach to your vehicle?s frame or bumper for a sleek, clean appearance. Each hitch also has a 1-1/4 inch square receiver tube opening so you can easily attach accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier, or a utility trailer. DRAW-TITE Class 1 custom trailer hitches come complete with all the mounting hardware needed for installation and are backed by a nationwide lifetime limited warranty. So, whether you are headed out to the campground and need a place for the cooler, taking the bikes to hit the trails in the park, or you are tackling a DIY project (maybe some landscaping or a home repair), choose DRAW-TITE and travel with confidence knowing your setup is connected with the security only DRAW-TITE can provide. DRAW-TITE: North America?s Favorite Hitch.
Draw-Tite has designed custom-fit trailer hitches since 1946 and is one of North America's most widely fitted hitch brands. Receiver hitches use solid all-welded construction and low-profile designs that follow modern vehicle contours, install with minimal bumper cutting or drilling, meet or exceed V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards, and carry a limited lifetime warranty.
Draw-Tite has been leading custom-fit trailer hitch design and engineering since its founding in 1946, and it remains one of the most widely fitted hitch brands in North America. The company's stated approach is straightforward: every hitch is tested rigorously so that it performs well beyond published industry standards, a philosophy it markets as Tested Tough. It sits within the Horizon Global towing group alongside Reese, Fulton, Bulldog, Tekonsha, Bargman and Wesbar.
Custom fit is the defining characteristic. Rather than adapting a universal design, Draw-Tite engineers a trailer hitch for a specific make, model and model year, so it bolts to existing frame locations with minimal bumper cutting or drilling. Low-profile designs follow the rear contours and aerodynamic styling of modern vehicles, which matters more than it once did now that rear fascias are shaped and sensor-equipped. Construction is solid all-welded steel for maximum strength, and every hitch meets or exceeds V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards and is backed by a nationwide limited lifetime warranty.
The range spans receiver sizes and classes to suit different loads, from 1-1/4 inch receivers for bike racks, cargo carriers and light trailers up through 2 inch receivers for heavier towing. Front mount hitches add a receiver at the front of the vehicle for winch mounts, snow plows, spare carriers and precise trailer positioning.
The Hidden Hitch series takes concealment further by mounting behind the vehicle's rear fascia, so the vehicle keeps its factory appearance until a removable receiver is fitted. Each is custom designed per make and model for a no-drill installation that does not compromise ground clearance, rated for up to 3,500 pounds gross trailer weight and 350 pounds tongue weight. Matching plug-and-play wiring completes the towing system.

The T-Connector is a trailer wiring harness designed for the Chevy Volt LT Hatchback. It provides electrical connections between the vehicle's taillights and a 4-flat trailer connector, allowing you to tow a trailer with integrated lighting. The system includes a black control module, wiring harness with color-coded wires (yellow, brown, green, red, white, and black), connectors, a 15 amp fuse holder, and cable ties.
The T-Connector is designed specifically for the Chevy Volt LT Hatchback. The manual does not confirm compatibility with other Volt model years, trim levels, or body styles. Verify your vehicle matches this specification before purchasing.
You will need: trim panel remover, 10 mm socket and ratchet (or 10 mm wrench), drill with 3/32" drill bit, wire crimpers, wire cutters, Phillips head screwdriver, and a test probe. These tools are required to remove trim panels, disconnect battery, drill the ground hole, crimp wire connections, and test the installation.
The kit includes: a black control module, T-Connector harness with color-coded wires (yellow, brown, green, red, white, black 12 ga.), cable ties, a yellow fuse holder with 15 amp fuse, a yellow butt connector, an eyelet and screw for the ground wire, and a ring terminal. The 4-flat trailer connector end must be mounted in an accessible location using a bracket or electrical box (not included).
Yes. You must disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable before connecting the power wire to the battery. This is a required safety step performed in step 7. After all wiring connections are complete, you reconnect the negative battery cable and install the 15 amp fuse in step 10.
Yes. You must open the vehicle hatch and remove both the driver's side and passenger's side taillights to access the vehicle's wiring connectors. This is the first step of the installation process.
Mount the black control module underneath the vehicle on the driver's side, attached to the aluminum bumper support brace using the cable tie provided. The epoxy side of the module must point toward the ground to prevent water buildup. This is a critical orientation requirement.
On the driver's side, separate the vehicle's taillight wiring connectors carefully without breaking the locking tabs. Route the T-Connector end with yellow and brown wires upward between the bumper cover and rear body panel, exiting at the taillight pocket. Connect the yellow and brown wires to the matching vehicle connectors, ensuring all connectors lock into place and surfaces are clean and dirt-free. Repeat the same process on the passenger's side using the T-Connector end with green and red wires.
Route the green and red wires along the metal bumper from driver's side to passenger's side. Route the black 12 ga. power wire along the exterior frame or follow existing wiring along the thresholds into the engine compartment to the battery. Route all wires carefully to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, and any points that may pinch or break the wire. Secure the harness with provided cable ties, avoiding areas that would pinch, cut, or melt the wire.
Yes. You must drill a 3/32" hole to create a grounding point for the white wire near the black control module. You can use an existing ground stud if available, or drill a new hole. Do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed. Before drilling, verify what is behind the surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces. Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area after drilling.
The T-Connector uses the following wire colors: yellow and brown wires connect to the driver's side taillight; green and red wires connect to the passenger's side taillight; white wire is the ground connection; black 12 ga. wire is the power connection to the vehicle battery. The yellow fuse holder contains the 15 amp fuse for the power circuit.
Locate the black 12 ga. power wire from the T-Connector box on the driver's side. Attach the black 12 ga. wire provided. Route it along the exterior frame or follow existing wiring along the thresholds into the engine compartment to the battery. After disconnecting the negative battery cable, cut the fuse holder wire, attach the ring terminal to the vehicle's positive (+) battery cable, and connect the other end of the fuse holder to the black 12 ga. wire using the yellow butt connector provided. Install the 15 amp fuse after reconnecting the negative battery cable.
The T-Connector uses a 15 amp fuse. The fuse is installed in the yellow fuse holder provided with the kit. The fuse must be installed in step 10 after all wiring connections are complete and the negative battery cable is reconnected.
Always wear safety glasses during installation. Read and follow all warnings and cautions on the vehicle battery before connecting the power wire. Do not exceed the product's amperage rating or the towing manufacturer's rating stated in your vehicle owner's manual. Verify what is behind any surface before drilling to avoid damage or injury. Do not route wires near hot pipes, heat shields, or the fuel tank. Ensure all connections are complete before testing. Overloading circuits can cause fires.
After all connections are complete and the 15 amp fuse is installed, test and verify the installation using a test light or by connecting an actual trailer. For the initial test, reset the vehicle's electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition. This ensures all connections are functioning properly before towing.
Verify that all wiring connectors are locked into place and connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt. Ensure the black control module is mounted with the epoxy side facing the ground. Confirm that all wires are secured with cable ties and routed away from hot pipes, heat shields, fuel tank, and pinch points. Reinstall all taillights and plastic trim panels without pinching or cutting the wires. Test the installation with a test light or trailer to confirm proper function.
Mount the 4-flat connector end in an accessible location using a bracket or electrical box (not included). The manual does not specify a particular location, but it should be positioned where it is easy to connect and disconnect a trailer.
The T-Connector (118726-037) is designed for the Chevy Volt LT Hatchback only. Verify your vehicle matches this specification before purchasing.
