chnorell Posted December 20, 2003 Share Posted December 20, 2003 RE 2000 Outback limited wagon. Has anyone any idea where the pigtail is for the trailer wiring. It does not appear to be behind any of the taillights. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forester2002s Posted December 20, 2003 Share Posted December 20, 2003 In my 2002 Forester, the trailer wiring connector is located in the spare-tire wheel well (on the right-side as you face into the rear hatch). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbhrps Posted December 20, 2003 Share Posted December 20, 2003 If it was like my 02 OBW, the wiring connector is part of the wiring harness that comes down the passenger side wheel well. Pull up the floor panel over the spare, pull the right side floor panel (in between the tail lights and the wheel well) and remove the wall panel between the tail lights and the wheel well. You should see the harness coming down the back of the wheel well, and the connector should be sitting there waiting in anticipation for you.

It's behind the driver's taillight on the right hand drive models! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbhrps Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 I bought the factory trailer hitch and wiring harness assembly, and yes the directions say that the connector for the trailer hitch assembly is located on the driver's side. I tore that damn car totally apart, and it was right where they said it should be, BUT on the passenger side of the car! Go figure! And my wife wants to know why I have grey hair.
