Curt part 55256 is a T-connector trailer wiring harness for Ford F-150 and F-250 trucks. It connects to the vehicle's factory taillight wiring to provide trailer lighting connectors.

Insert the T-connector between the separated connectors, ensuring both connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place.
The manual warns to separate the vehicle's connectors carefully to avoid damaging the locking tabs. If tabs are damaged during separation, the connectors may not stay fully inserted. Contact Curt Manufacturing or a dealer for replacement connector guidance.
Drilling is optional. You must establish a ground connection for the white wire. If a suitable grounding point exists near the connector—such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame—use that. If not, drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided.
Drill a 3/32" hole for the ground wire. Secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided with the kit.
Before drilling, verify that no miscellaneous items are hidden behind or under the surface where you plan to drill. This includes wiring, fuel lines, brake lines, and other components. Drilling into hidden items can cause damage and personal injury.
Route the 4-flat connector to the center of the vehicle and secure it in a convenient, out-of-the-way location. Secure any loose wires with the cable ties provided.
