The ModuLite HD module handles the trailer lighting load and keeps that extra draw off your Traverse's factory wiring. It's a direct replacement for the OEM tow harness, ready for running lights, brake lights, and turn signals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you tow a small utility trailer, a boat trailer, or a pair of bikes behind your 2013-2014 Chevrolet Traverse, this Tekonsha 118270 is the wiring you want. It's a 4-way flat replacement for the OEM tow harness, and it comes with Tekonsha's circuit-protected ModuLite HD module built in. That means you get a proper trailer connector at the rear of the truck without hacking into the factory light wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's why the ModuLite HD part matters. A basic wire tap pulls the extra trailer lighting load straight through your Traverse's existing circuits, and that's how you pop a fuse or fry a factory light module. The ModuLite HD carries that load on its own and adds circuit protection between the trailer and the truck. So when a trailer bulb shorts out or a connector gets wet, the module takes the hit, not your vehicle's wiring. That's the whole point of the circuit protected name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe output is a standard 4-way flat connector, which is what most light-duty trailers use. It runs your tail lights, brake lights, and left and right turn signals. That covers boat trailers, small cargo and utility trailers, and most bike and cargo racks that need lighting. Just know it handles lighting, not trailer brakes, so if you're towing something heavy that needs a brake controller, that's a separate piece of gear. If your trailer already has a 4-way flat plug, this gets you towing without an adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is straightforward because this is built specifically for the 13-14 Traverse. You're replacing the OEM tow wiring rather than splicing a universal kit into random wires, so the connections are made to fit. Plan on running the harness to the rear and mounting the module in a dry, protected spot. And if you're not sure whether your Traverse already has a tow package, check for an existing connector at the hitch before you order. This is the Tekonsha replacement for that factory setup, not a universal fits-everything kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-way flat connector output, the standard plug for light-duty boat, utility, and cargo trailers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCircuit-protected ModuLite HD module carries the trailer lighting load and keeps the extra draw off your factory wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect replacement for the OEM tow harness on the 2013-2014 Chevrolet Traverse, made to fit instead of a universal splice-in kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowers tail lights, brake lights, and left and right turn signals for basic trailer lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTekonsha part number 118270, an authorized Tekonsha replacement harness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Tekonsha reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhich vehicle does the Tekonsha 118270 fit?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's built specifically for the 2013-2014 Chevrolet Traverse as a replacement for the factory tow wiring.
