Trailer lights and equipment must
comply with federal, state, province,
and local regulations. Check with
your local recreational vehicle dealer
for the requirements in your area,
and use only equipment designed for
your vehicle.
Your vehicle has a trailer lighting
connector located behind the left
side panel in the cargo area. Refer to
thedrawingaboveforthewiring
color code and purpose of each pin.
To use the trailer lighting connector,
you will need a wiring harness and
converter. This comes with the
Honda hitch (see page ), or it
may be obtained separately from
your dealer.
If you use a non-Honda trailer
lighting harness and converter, you
can get the connector and pins that
mate with the connector in your
vehicle from your Honda dealer.
Since lighting and wiring vary by
trailer type and brand, you should
have a qualified technician install a
suitable connector between the
vehicle and the trailer. Improper
equipment or installation can cause
damage to your vehicle’s electrical
system and affect your vehicle
warranty.Seeyourtrailerdealerformore
information on installing electric
brakes.
If you choose electric brakes, be
sure they are electrically actuated.
Do not attempt to tap into your
vehicle’s hydraulic system. No
matter how successful it may seem,
any attempt to attach trailer brakes
to your vehicle’s hydraulic system
will lower braking effectiveness and
create a potential hazard.
Honda recommends that any trailer
having a total weight of 1,000 lbs
(450 kg) or more be equipped with
its own electric or surge-type brakes.
You must also have a transmission
fluid cooler and a power steering
fluid cooler installed. These coolers
are available only from your Honda
dealer.
