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 Dodge D100, D150, D250, D350, Ram 50, Ramcharger, W100, W150, W250, W350, Dakota, B250 and Dodge Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 (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 55317 T-connector includes cable ties to secure loose wires. The manual does not specify the quantity of cable ties or list any other included hardware.
The taillight wiring harness is located on the driver's side along the frame rail. You will find connectors that match those on the T-connector.
On the driver's side, separate the vehicle's taillight connectors carefully without damaging the locking tabs. Insert the T-connector end with the yellow wire between the separated connectors.
Route the T-connector end with the green wire to the passenger side, taking care to avoid areas that may cut or pinch the wire. Separate the passenger-side taillight connectors without damaging the locking tabs, then insert the green wire T-connector end between them, as you did on the driver's side.
Route the 4-flat connector to the center of the vehicle and secure it in a convenient location that is out of the way. Use the cable ties provided to secure any loose wires.
Before drilling, verify that miscellaneous items hidden behind or under any surface are not present. This will avoid damage to hidden components and prevent personal injury.
The manual identifies the T-connector as having a yellow wire end for the driver's side and a green wire end for the passenger side, but does not specify which trailer light functions (brake, turn, ground, etc.) these wires control. Consult the vehicle's wiring diagram or contact Curt Manufacturing for this information.
When separating the vehicle's connectors, handle them carefully and do not damage the locking tabs. Route the T-connector wires to avoid areas that may cut or pinch them.
