Factory Wiring Connector
I have a 1992 Honda Accord LX.
I was told that my car has a FACTORY wiring connector to hook up the wiring for a trailer hitch. I was told that it is in the trunk, but I cannot find it. Does anyone KNOW if my car actually has this connector and EXACTLY where it is? Thank you. |
The 6P blue trailer lighting harness connector is located behind the left garnish by the taillight access door in the trunk (left side of trunk, top rear corner).

Thank you---BUT---
what is a GARNISH ? I have never heard this term in a vehicle discussion. Do I have to pull up any of the carpet? This connector is used to hook up the wiring when pulling a trailer, right? Is it a flat or round connector? Thanks again. |

A garnish is just a trim piece. Honda uses that term regularly in their parts descriptions.
The trailer lighting connector is rectangular. I will only briefly post the image. |
Great find redbull.. :)

OK--I went out to my car and removed the tail light access door (on the left side)
Behind that door, there is only the wires for the tail light-- there is no 6P wiring connector. So where is it EXACTLY? What do I have to remove in order to find it? Thank you. |

I previously posted this image in my last post and removed it. I will posted again for a short period.
You have to remove the garnish panel next to the taillight access door. |
Thank you.
That clears everything up. Have a nice week! |
Factory Wiring Connector
OK---I found it!
It was actually on top of the tail light wiring, but taped up. It is a small blue connector and multi-pin connector. Does this connector have another designation besides "6P" ? Obviously I need the other "half" of this connector in order to hook up the wiring for a trailer hitch. Where would be the best place to get the other part of the connector? Thank you. |
Refer to the information in the image I posted in post #4. The dealership may or may not carry the corresponding harness connector anymore, since so many years has past for a 1992 Accord. It is referred to as a trailer lighting connector; 6P is a generic reference to a connector have 6 cavity/terminals.
If the dealership doesn't have the harness connector anymore, you would just use aftermarket trailer light connector and splice the wiring based on the image in post #4. |
