Description
xOverview
If your tow vehicle lacks a dedicated trailer connector, CURT 56196 offers a practical splice-in solution. This 2-to-3-wire tail light converter integrates with your vehicle’s taillight wiring, helping your trailer’s taillights, turn signals, and brake lights work together when you’re dinghy towing behind an RV or other large vehicle. Rather than plugging into sockets, this converter taps into the taillight circuit for a direct, long‑term wiring approach.
Key benefits
- DINGHY TOWING: Converts a 2-wire vehicle system to standard 3-wire trailer wiring for dinghy towing behind an RV or large vehicle.
- SPLICE-IN CONNECTION: Provides a dependable splice-in wiring option and can also be spliced to a 4‑way flat socket for convenient connections.
- COLOR-CODED WIRES: Color-coded wiring speeds installation and reduces guesswork (2.1 A signal circuit, 5.0 A taillight circuit).
- READY TO INSTALL: Blunt-cut wires and a straightforward install mean no heavy-duty flashers or direct battery hookup are required.
- RELIABLE POWER: Surface mount technology minimizes heat, supports steady light output, and promotes durable performance.
How it works
- Splices directly into the taillight wiring to convert a 2-wire system into 3-wire trailer wiring.
- Uses color-coded wires to simplify the process and help ensure proper connections.
- Provides a ready-to-install solution without the need for bulky adapters or constant maintenance.
Installation tips and outcomes
Plan a clean routing path away from heat sources and moving parts. After installation, test all functions in a safe area before hitting the road. Expect reliable operation of taillights and signals under typical towing conditions, with a setup designed for long-term use rather than a quick-fix.
