Towing a trailer – Acura 2002 MDX - Owner's Manual User Manual
Page 238
If you use a non-Acura trailer
lighting harness and converter, you
can get the mating connector and
pins that mate with the connector in
your vehicle from your Acura dealer.
Since lighting and wiring vary in
trailer type and brand, you should
also have a qualified mechanic install
a suitable connector between the
vehicle and the trailer.
All states and Canadian provinces
require some type of trailer lights.
Check requirements for the areas
where you plan to tow.
To get to your vehicle’s trailer
lighting connector, open the tailgate,
remove the cargo cover, then
remove the rear panel trim. The
connector is on the left side. We
recommend that you have your
Acura dealer install an Acura wiring
harness and converter. This harness
has been designed and tested for
your vehicle.
