Product Description

Part Number:
CMF59236

The CURT multi-function electrical converter is a heavy-duty electrical converter for virtually any vehicle-trailer combination. It comes with pigtail wires that are able to be spliced into two-wire, three-wire or PWM wiring systems with combined stop and taillights. It converts any of these systems to a simple two-wire system, using a standard 4-way flat output, to be compatible with most trailer wiring. It comes with color-coded wires and an easy-to-read wiring guide, as well as a dust cover to protect the 4-way flat connector. The converter is controlled using a microprocessor that is able to sense the current passing through it, allowing for quick reaction to dangerous conditions such as overload and short circuits. It also filters unwanted input signals to protect your wiring systems and uses a mere seven volts for low-voltage operation.

This is absolutely the wrong item recommended by a U-Haul customer service representative. After opening this box and determining it was NOT the right item, U-Haul policy is to NOT accept returns of opened packages, so I am out the $60 plus! Beware, beware!
