I keep it in the car by the tire until I need it, then I hang it out the back and close the door, keeping the weather out of the wiring.
This harness was used after I installed a hitch on my Terrain. The wires were plugged into the left behind the panel rear light receptacle. The wires were run beneath the table and everything worked fine.
I am unable to provide a definitive answer. If this isn't a third-party seller, you might be able to return it for free. In 2018, the Equinox/Terrain received a few minor updates. Try entering your vehicle information on the website of an auto parts store, such as O'Reilly, or the CURT home page, and seeing what parts come up.
There isn't one that I'm aware of. br>You could probably change the connector to make this work.

It was the simplest installation I'd ever seen. If your Terrain is a 2017 model, DO NOT follow the instructions. Lift the spare tire door all the way up and look to your left for a square hole large enough for a small hand to fit through. Connect the wires, store them in the hole, and remove them when you're ready to use them. Done! Nothing needs to be unscrewed.
I had been using a different harness that tied into both rear lights that eventually started having problems, found out about this plug under the spare tire on the left side looking for a new harness, double checked to make sure I had the plug, which I did, ordered this harness, spent more time unloading my truck than it took to install it, ran the wire under my carpet matt and left it. I think it's a no-brainer. Under the hood, my lights are now controlled by factory fuses. I'm not tethered to my taillights.
For my 2014 Chevy Equinox, I purchased this connector. Plug it in, and you're ready to go. Unless my car came with the towing package, I thought I'd need a different connector that connects to each side's tail light assembly. If that's the case, this direct connector is a lot easier to use. Pull up the back spare tire cover and look to the left (driver's side), there's a gray plug fastened to the floor panel inside the quarter panel area that fits this T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped T-shaped connective tissue You're ready to tow once you've plugged it in and routed the wire. That's all there is to it. The 2014 Equinox, from what I've heard, is set up similarly to the 2011-2012 Equinox. 2013 is the year, but all you have to do is look in the back compartment like I described.
It also includes instructions on how to locate the plug for your trailer lights. That means you won't have to clip wires or wire it in for your Chevy Equinox. There is a plug. Simply connect it to the power source. Pry up the plastic circular plug underneath your spare (the left one, there are two), and cut a small piece off the outside large enough to fit the wire out with a screwdriver or something. Then use silicone to seal it or ask your local shop for some dum dum (insulating tape, which is a black tar-like substance commonly used for air conditioning projects). However, dum dum has a wide range of applications. For example, a roll in Naperville costs $15. You'll probably never use it all, but it'll come in handy at some point for the do-it-yourselfer.
I found this to add to my aftermarket towing setup after doing some online research. On my 2016 Equinox LS, the installation was a breeze. All I had to do was lift the cargo floor and discover the factory-installed connector. It took three minutes to connect the two ends. We were up and running after turning on the car and checking the lights on the trailer's four-pin connector.
On my 2017 Chevy Equinox LT AWD, I installed a custom-designed connector. After removing the cargo floor, I followed other's advice and looked for the connector on the drivers side. You'll notice a small opening with the connector attached to the side; if you have small hands, you can probably fit it inside. Mine were far too large. I used a flat head screw driver to carefully free the connector after determining that it was only attached to the sidewall by a plastic grommet. It's then accessible from outside the hole opening for a quick connection, and it works flawlessly.
Simple to work with! It's a must-have accessory for GMC Terrain. So, easy. The manufacturer has already completed the wiring, so all that's left to do is connect this harness to the pre-wired connector under the spare tire hatch in the trunk. (From the left).
The female trailer plug was already installed in the rear driver's side panel beneath the tail light on my Terrain. So all that was left to do was plug it in. and then connecting the wires to the hitch Installing it is a breeze.
