1. Shirya Motar: Ensure the vehicle is turned off and the parking brake is engaged. Disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shorts during installation.
2. Access Tail Light Wiring: Locate and carefully remove the necessary interior trim panels or tail light assemblies to access the vehicle's factory wiring. For Ford Edge models, this typically involves accessing the wiring behind the rear access panels in the cargo area.
3. Connect the Harness: The CURT 56436 harness features vehicle-specific connectors. Plug the appropriate connectors from the harness directly into the corresponding factory wiring connectors at each tail light assembly. Ensure a secure connection.
4. Mount the Converter Module: Find a secure, dry location within the vehicle's rear cargo area to mount the converter module. Use the provided zip ties or double-sided tape to secure it, ensuring it is away from moving parts or excessive heat.
5. Route the 4-Way Flat Connector: Route the 4-way flat connector wire to the exterior of the vehicle, typically near the trailer hitch. Ensure the wire is protected from sharp edges, heat, and moving parts. Use zip ties to secure the wiring along the vehicle's frame or existing wire bundles.
6. Connect to Vehicle Battery (if applicable): Some installations may require a direct power connection to the vehicle battery. If your harness includes a separate power wire, route it from the converter module to the vehicle battery. Install the inline fuse holder near the battery and connect the power wire through the fuse holder to the positive battery terminal. Connect the ground wire from the harness to a clean, unpainted metal surface on the vehicle frame.
7. Test the Wiring: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Use a test light or connect a trailer to verify that all trailer lights (tail lights, brake lights, and turn signals) function correctly.
8. Secure and Reassemble: Once verified, use the provided dust cover on the 4-way flat connector when not in use. Reinstall any removed trim panels or tail light assemblies.

Batutuwa gama gari da Magani:

• No Trailer Lights Functioning:
  1. Check the vehicle's fuse.
  2. Check all harness connections.
  3. Check the trailer's wiring and bulbs.
  4. Check the ground wire on both the harness and trailer.
  5. Locate and correct a short.
• Converter System Shutdown: If the converter detects an issue, it may temporarily shut down. If trailer lamps are not working, shut off power to the faulted circuit for a few seconds, then try the circuit again. If the problem persists, check for a short circuit in the trailer wiring or excessive current draw from the trailer lights.
• One or More Trailer Lights Not Working:
  1. Check the specific bulb on the trailer.
  2. Inspect the wiring for that specific light for any breaks or loose connections.

Lura: Using a test light can help confirm system function. If problems persist, see your installer for corrective action.
