All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
Whatever your task at hand -- whether it's launching that boat before daybreak, setting up your camper before the rush or getting a final load to the dump before close -- CURT class 3 trailer hitches offer the strength needed for serious towing. They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the Mazda CX-5 (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 4,000 lbs. GTW and 600 lbs. TW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage.
If your vehicle is not equipped with wiring for towing a trailer, CURT custom wiring is the ideal solution. A custom wiring harness -- also called a T-connector -- is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that plugs into your automotive electric system and provides a standard, universal trailer wiring connection. This is done using two or more vehicle-specific, OEM-compatible connectors to plug into the taillight assembly, eliminating the need for cutting, splicing and soldering during installation. Custom wiring harnesses are made vehicle-specific, and while they are not available for all vehicles, they do offer one of the fastest, easiest and most secure ways to wire a vehicle for towing. This particular plug-in harness provides a 4-way flat connector socket and is designed to be a custom wiring harness to fit certain years of the Mazda CX-5 and CX-50 (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary wiring components to establish a reliable trailer wiring connection, as well as a dust cover to keep the connector clean when not in use. You have a picture in mind of your next destination -- maybe it's the boat landing at your favorite fishing spot, maybe it's a campsite that overlooks one of nature's masterpieces, or maybe it's the next big jobsite. However, turning that picture into a reality takes more than just daydreaming. It takes a solid connection and the right amount of power. CURT custom wiring is made with some of the most sophisticated technology in the industry and is designed to install with ease, giving you a long-lasting electrical connection for your towing hitch setup.

The 22 - 23 Mazda CX-5 Excluding diesel Curt 2", Class 3 Trailer Tow Hitch + 4-flat Wiring Kit 13315 (Part #CHW-2276) fits the following vehicles: 2022-2023 Mazda CX-5. Always verify your specific year, make, and model before ordering.
The 22 - 23 Mazda CX-5 Excluding diesel Curt 2", Class 3 Trailer Tow Hitch + 4-flat Wiring Kit 13315 (Part #CHW-2276) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, CURT part number 13315 is designed for 2013 and later Mazda CX-5 Crossover models. The hitch is a weight-carrying style with a maximum trailer weight capacity of 4,000 lbs and tongue weight capacity of 600 lbs.
The CURT 13315 is rated for a maximum trailer weight of 4,000 lbs and tongue weight of 600 lbs when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower than the hitch rating.
No, drilling is not required. The CURT 13315 uses existing factory frame rail mounting locations and weld nuts. The installation uses a fishwire technique to route hardware through access holes in the frame rails without drilling.
Required tools are: 3/4" and 19mm sockets, ratchet, torque wrench, flathead screwdriver, pliers, safety glasses, masking tape, and a pry bar. Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation.
Two people may be required to ease installation. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, CURT recommends contacting an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance.
Yes, if a plastic underbody panel is present under the rear bumper, it must be removed. Remove the two plastic fasteners using a flathead screwdriver. Return the panel and fasteners to the vehicle owner after installation.
Yes, the exhaust must be temporarily lowered. Remove two to four of the rearmost rubber exhaust hangers (the exact number depends on your vehicle). Leave the rubber hangers attached to the vehicle; do not remove them completely.
Remove any plastic insert and/or electrical harness clip between the hitch mounting locations on the passenger side frame rail. On the driver side, unfasten the electrical harness clip on the outside of the frame rail and follow the harness to unfasten the nearest clip towards the center of the vehicle. These must be re-secured after the hitch is positioned.
The fishwire technique is used to route 1/2" carriage bolts with CM-SP12 spacers through the frame rail access holes. Thread the fishwire through the access hole and out the rearmost mounting location in the frame rail, leaving the hardware fully inside the frame rail with the fishwire attached. The fishwire is then threaded through the hitch mounting holes, and the hardware is pulled into position before the fishwire is removed.
Tape four 1/2" flat washers into position on the inside of the hitch side plates before beginning the fishwire process. When inserting M12 bolts, ensure the tooth side of the conical toothed washers are against the hitch, and the 1/2" flat washers are clamped in position between the hitch and frame rail.
Torque all M12 hardware (part number 10-10277) to 86.2 ft-lbs. Torque all 1/2" hardware (part number 10-10287 bolts and part number 20-00062 nuts) to 110 ft-lbs.
After pulling the 1/2" hardware into position and removing the fishwire, wrap cable tie(s) around the hitch mounting plate(s) and harness. Pull the cable ties tight and trim any excess.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. This is a critical maintenance step to ensure safe towing operation.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times while installing this product. Additionally, never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity when using the hitch.
The kit includes: 3 M12x1.25 hex head cap screws (part 10-10277), 2 1/2-13 UNC carriage bolts (part 10-10287), 2 1/2-13 UNC serrated flange nuts (part 20-00062), 4 1/2" flat washers (part 30-00133), 3 1/2" split-cone washers (part 30-00149), 2 square hole spacers (part CM-SP12), 2 lengths of 1/2" fishwire (part 1_2 FISHWIRE), and 2 cable ties 3/16" x 8" (part 600043).
Yes, remove the tape on the side of the vehicle frame rails to expose the mounting locations. Also trim any excess seam seal if it will interfere with the hitch installation.

The Curt 56487 is a powered converter that converts a vehicle's taillight signals to a 4-flat trailer connector. It allows you to connect a trailer with functioning lights to your SUV or van, so the trailer lights operate in sync with your vehicle's taillights, turn signals and brake lights.
The Curt 56487 is designed for SUVs and vans with 12-volt negative ground electrical systems. The manual does not specify which vehicle models or years are compatible. Contact Curt Manufacturing or consult a fitment database with your vehicle's year, make and model to confirm compatibility.
No. The Curt 56487 is designed only for 12-volt negative ground systems. It cannot be used on 24-volt systems or positive ground systems.
Required tools are: ratchet, 10mm socket, socket extension, panel trim removal tool, Phillips screwdriver, flathead screwdriver, cutting tool, wire stripper, wire crimper, and electrical tape. You will also need an abrasive pad or paper to remove rust and paint from the grounding point.
The kit includes a custom wiring harness with yellow, green, white and black wires; a black converter box; a ground screw; a ring terminal; double-sided tape for mounting the converter box; cable ties; a 4-flat connector; a 4-flat dust cover; and a fuse holder with 10-amp fuse.
Yes. Step 1 requires you to locate the vehicle battery and disconnect the negative battery terminal before beginning installation. Fasten this wire down and away from the battery while completing the installation process.
You must remove the rear scuff panel, and on both the driver and passenger sides, remove the interior side trim panels. These panels provide access to the taillight wiring harness connectors where the custom harness is inserted.
After removing the interior side trim panels, locate the vehicle's taillight wiring harness connectors behind the trim. Separate the connectors from the taillight housing, taking care not to damage the locking tabs. Insert the custom wiring harness end with the yellow wire between the separated connectors on the driver side, ensuring the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Repeat on the passenger side using the green wire.
Locate a flat, clean surface that is out of the path of spray and debris from the rear wheels and road. Adhere the black converter box to this surface using the provided double-sided tape. The manual indicates wiring locations S3 and S4 (behind driver and passenger side rear access panels) are used for this product.
You may not need to drill if you can secure the white ground wire with the ring terminal to an existing screw or bolt in the vehicle frame. If no suitable existing fastener is available, drill a 3/32" pilot hole in a clean area free from rust, dirt and paint (use an abrasive pad or paper to prepare the surface). Before drilling, check for miscellaneous items that may be hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
Drill a 3/32" pilot hole if an existing fastener is not available for grounding the white ground wire with its ring terminal.
Signal circuits (turn signals): 3.0 amps per side. Tail/Running circuits: 6.0 amps total. 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.
Yellow wire = Left turn signal; Green wire = Right turn signal; Red wire = Brake light; Brown wire = Taillight/Running light. The white wire is the ground wire, and the black wire is the power wire that connects to the vehicle battery.
Route the black 12-gauge power wire from the vehicle battery to the converter, taking care to avoid pinch points and hot or rotating components. When passing the power wire through sheet metal, use an existing grommet, add a grommet, or use silicone to protect the wire from sharp edges. Secure the power wire to the vehicle chassis using the provided cable ties. Install the 10-amp fuse in the fuse holder after all other steps are complete.
Use a 10-amp fuse maximum. The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp max fuse. Install the fuse after all other installation steps are complete.
Use a ring terminal for the battery connection. The white ground wire also uses a ring terminal, which is secured to the vehicle body with the provided screw or a drilled 3/32" hole.
The power wire should be 12-gauge or larger.
Do not exceed the product rating or tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower. The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum. Exceeding the product rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire. Additionally, before drilling, check for miscellaneous items that may be hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
After installation, verify that the harness is functioning by attaching the 4-flat connector to any trailer with functioning lights. The taillights on the vehicle to be towed should function along with the taillights on the vehicle that is powering them. Test using a test light or a properly wired trailer.
Periodic inspection of all wires and connections should be performed to ensure there is no visible damage or loose connections. When not in use, roll up the 4-flat connector and store it in a convenient, out-of-the-way location inside the trunk. Install the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion.
Route the green wire over and down behind the interior side panel and out to the passenger side behind the removed scuff panel. Zip tie as needed along the rear bumper.
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. Install the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion.
The Curt 56487 is designed for SUVs and vans with 12-volt negative ground electrical systems. Confirm your vehicle's compatibility with Curt Manufacturing or a fitment database before purchasing.
Drilling may be required only if no existing fastener is available for the ground wire. If needed, drill a 3/32" pilot hole. Always check for hidden items behind or under surfaces before drilling.
Use a 10-amp fuse maximum. The battery connection must be fuse-protected, and the fuse should be installed after all other installation steps are complete.
Use 12-gauge wire or larger for the power wire connecting to the vehicle battery.
Do not exceed the product rating or tow vehicle lamp load rating. The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum. Exceeding the rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire.
First, verify that the custom harness is functioning by attaching the 4-flat connector to a trailer with functioning lights. The taillights on the vehicle to be towed should function along with the taillights on the vehicle powering them. If they do not, check that: (1) the custom harness connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place at both the driver and passenger side taillight connections; (2) the converter box is properly mounted and not damaged; (3) the ground wire ring terminal is securely attached to the vehicle frame; (4) the black power wire is properly connected to the positive battery terminal with a ring terminal; (5) the 10-amp fuse is installed and not blown; and (6) all wire connections are secure and show no visible damage.
