Just completed mine today. Thanks for the tutorial, I couldn't have done it without you! A couple of notes that might help others. Getting it through the firewall was painful for me, the gromit was turned slightly from what you see in the video, so the wiring loom completely hid it, it was impossible to see from the engine bay. Access from the inside is pretty decent, if you can't cut it for the engine side try using an all from the interior but be careful not to cut the loom. Also be careful that the gromit in the firewall is correctly placed when you're done, if there is any resistance it will pull the gromit through. Other than that, you can skip removing the panel beneath the seat belts, no problem to push the wire through. You also don't need to remove rear seats and adjacent panel, pull the weather stripping off along the rear door frame, it releases the inner panel and allows you to place the wire neatly inside. It's still a big job, give yourself 4 or 5 hours for this one.

This video needs to be shared with anyone that does not have the hybrid or prime trim since they have the battery in the back. Toyota really messed up not adding a power wire to the rear in the other trim packages

I removed the wiper plate for the wire feed, I could not see past the battery well enough and it was easy enough to remove it. The hollow garage sounds made me feel like every pop from the body clips was extra dramatic. And on my '24 I did not have the right size hole to fit the 4 pin connector throught it so I had to enlarge it myself. Overall, this is a super helpful video. Thanks for making and posting it.

Couldn't have been been done without you thank you brother

Excellent video, very detailed. Thank you for the effort you put into these videos. Please continue posting Rav4 2019 maintenance videos, they are enormously useful.

Very detailed. So much work. Thank you.

Great video. Thank you for all the work to produce it. I had no idea how much work it is to add the trailer wiring harness. I am definitely going to work this into the price of my new car so hopefully I can get a discount.

Very detail and professional installation that you did. Amazing work buddy

Thankyou bet you were working well into the evening and you're a pro for sure. Now my turn

I just installed this on my 2021 Prime SE. It was no where near as hard as this. I did not have to remove seats. In fact, the side panels only had to be pulled back enough to access the plugs at the tail lights and stick the module on the body. Same amount of work as an aftermarket plug and play option. For what it's worth, the factory harness is much nicer/cleaner than the aftermarket ones. It is, however, more costly.

Thanks. Very helpful

For my 2019 Rav4 Hybrid XSE, I recently installed a Tekonsha 118801. My Rav4 has a subwoofer on the left side. The wire for the left turn signal is short by about 12 inches because of the subwoofer housing filled the space. Though it was easier to route the power wire because the hybrid's 12vdc battery is just at the rear cargo right side.

I have hybrid and hybrid battery is in the back so it is gonna be way easier!

It should be noted here that RAV4 Hybrid models have their battery under the rear cargo bay floor (right side I believe). So, for these models, it is not necessary to reticulate a 12V wire from the engine bay, through the fire wall and down one side of the car. Therefore any work undertaken to reticulate that wire is not needed. This does not affect disassembly of the cargo bay and surrounds which must still be carried out during the installation. Further, it should be understood that the RAV4 is a crossover meaning that it is constructed on a car chassis as opposed to a truck chassis. Cars of course are designed to carry people, trucks on the other hand are designed to haul heavy loads. This has important implications when towing trailers. Toyota states that a RAV4 Hybrid can tow 1500lbs (and conventional wisdom indicates that trailer weight should comprise 80% of that figure). However, what I've read indicates that the RAV4 can tow a trailer up to 3000lb provided it has onboard brakes fitted (i.e. it is a braked trailer). BTW I'm just repeating what I found. Always check for yourself before proceeding and obviously, this figure would vary by model. Just a useful tidbit of information if you're heading down this path.

@@CarterEdison777 Actually I prefer a mix of both. On the one hand, you don't want it guitar string tight. On the other, you don't want a loose coil of cable floating around that might contact other electrical ccts. So the ideal scenario is a balance between the two... not too short, not too long, just the right length.

Ya thanks for the added info. This install was involved and I'd bet a bag of replacement clips for the panels would be a good idea. In my experience those often fail due to brittleness and aren't designed for reuse. Well wish me luck, enthusiasm being my #1 natural talent followed closely by my #2 trait of impatience and its partner frustration, should keep me out of trouble for a bit. And you're correct about the weight tolerances. Over kill is great, and a call to your insurance provider will keep that contract secure, and they will give the load specs at that time. Safety first.

Wow! Great video. Toyota was not thinking ahead on this one. Removal of so much of the interior???

If anyone has Radio/Head unit issues after install (keeps rebooting every 30 seconds) here is the fix/reset I found in a forum: Key inside the car Car/Accessory ON, Engine OFF Parking Brake ON Shift into REVERSE for 5+ minutes (car will make a beeping error noise - for hybrid I got error that hybrid system was off and the hybrid reverse noise comes on as well as the other warning noise - it is very loud/annoying) Shift back into PARK Start the car (should be reset/working) Also, initially it had a parking assist disabled warning, but that went away after driving for 2 minutes. The radio did not fix itself (other forum where I got this instructions suggested the above procedure resets the navigation).

This is like the 'Blair Witch Project' of automotive work. :D

This is a pricey option. But great vid install.

On a rav4 prime the 12v battery is in the back. Can you skip all the routing part and only disassemble the back of the vehicle when installing the OEM: Part Number of the Toyota Wire Harness Kit: PK5DO-42K11-WH. ?

What size hole saw for the 7 ping harness?

it there another way to install this the wirings without removing all the seats?

Where would the brake controller plug in?

Question on the 4 way to 7 way harness. I had the Toyota OEM wiring harness installed on my prime, and I want a 7 way. Most 4 way to 7 way adapters require running a separate power wire to it (for charging trailer battery and maybe electric brakes) but you didn't do that on your 7 way connector? A little confused? Does the toyota module handle that automatically or do I need to purchase a special 7 way.. or other. Hope you can help. Thank You for the detailed video !!

Привет!! Пригнал RAV 4 2020 Гибрид из Америки )) Установил фаркоп , а электрическую часть не знаю куда подключать . по видео видел подключение 12В из аккумулятора , а еще справа и слева в багажнике . Можешь обьяснить куда именно , Наши электрики без схемы машины не могут определить (( Если можно конечно , очень надо . Спасибо !!

В данном случае, устанавливали две системы: передача сигналов на лампочки поворотников и тормозов (4х контактный разъем) и вторая - передача 12в от батареи напрямую к электроприводу тормозов прицепа, плюс, фонари заднего хода и сигнал от инерционного регулятора тормозов прицепа (7ми полосный разъем). Если Вы не планируете использовать прицеп с электроприводом тормозов, достаточно снять сигнал с поворотников и тормозных ламп пробником с цоколя соответствующей лампы, с дальнейшей врезкой, пайкой, или, используя T-splitter. Схемы у нас, к сожалению, не было.

Why can't you run the wiring under the vehicle?

@MorozovAutomotive

Because it is OEM kit designed by Toyota to run inside cabin, designated cables, connectors, grommets e.t.c. Even if you want, you can not run it under. There are at least two alternatives: E-trailer and U-haul, both designed to run underbelly.

So this does not need to attach to the factory hitch at all, right? Could I install this on a RAV4 that has a non-OEM hitch? I'm leaning toward going for the TorkLift EcoHitch

@@MorozovAutomotive I installed the U-Haul preferred wiring "module" and I can tell you it's the exact same as the Toyota one, wire colors, connectors and even then double-sided sticky tape also, it's likely just an aftermarket module with a Toyota logo on it. The only exceptions is that the "OEM" one comes with grommets/plugs. If you just use your own 12v+ lead wire from the battery then you can easily use the Toyota one and run the line on the underside of the vehicle. Though, I would run it on the interior even if it's not an OEM kit. There are many ways to run it internally without removing as much of the panels as in this video, however it wouldn't be as nicely completed as this very well done install was.
