Need help with towing hitch wiring on RX300, please!

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 2:37 am

Just installed a tow hitch on a 2000 RX300 4WD w/LCD display.   Can
anyone tell me where/how does one connect  a light wiring harness to
operate the trailer brake and turn signals?  I understand that tapping
into the tailight wires is not recommended as changes in resistance
will play havoc with fancy electronics on the RX.  I assume there is a
place to plug in a harness since a tow hitch is a dealer option.
Where is that place?  Any help will be greatly appreciated. TIA

  1. I spliced into the wiring harness on my 99′ and haven’t had any troubles.
