platform. The seven-wire harness
contains the following trailer circuits:

Signal

*The fuses for these two circuits
are installed in the underhood
electrical center, but the wires are
not connected. They should be
connected by your dealer or a
qualified service center. The fuse
and wire for the ITBC is factory
installed and connected if the
vehicle is equipped with an ITBC.
The fuse for the battery feed is
not required if the vehicle has an

Mode, or the vehicle is not
equipped with Tow/Haul, turn on
the headlamps as a second way to
boost the vehicle system and
charge the battery.
