2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac Towing Products

A CURT custom wiring connector (sometimes called a T-connector) is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that eliminates the need for cutting, splicing and soldering when installing vehicle-to-trailer wiring. Most vehicles do not come ready to tow. Unless your vehicle has a towing package, it is probably not equipped with a trailer wiring connector. This is where CURT’s custom wiring connectors come into play. A custom wiring connector uses a single original equipment plug to plug into a special socket provided by your vehicle. Though this option is not available on every vehicle, some automotive manufacturers design their vehicles to be easily equipped for towing by supplying a socket, integrated into the vehicle’s electrical system, to readily accept a custom wiring connector. With a CURT custom wiring connector, there is no need to tap into the taillight assembly because a special socket is already provided. This custom wiring connector provides a 4-way flat connector socket and is designed to be a custom wiring option for a variety of vehicles (see application info to verify fitment with your vehicle). CURT custom wiring connectors are designed to be long-lasting and simple to install. They come with dust covers to keep your connector clean when not in use.

• Plugs into USCAR socket to provide 4-way flat trailer wiring connector
• Simple plug-and-play design eliminates the need for cutting or splicing
• 4-way flat output connects tail lights, brake lights and turn signals

Like trailer hitches and ball mounts, electrical connectors range all over the board in shape, size and capability, but no matter what your trailer’s electrical functions are, you need a solid connection to keep the power flowing and ensure safety on the road.
