VIN 1V2GR2CA0JC54XXXX
I purchased a 2018 atlas S 4motion.
Dealership had no models in stock with a tow hitch so I bought this one.
I have found that adding a tow hitch and wiring is not as simple as it used to be on older vehicles.
I have found that a J345 module needs to be added.?

I am not sure if my vehicle has the wiring needed for the J345.
factory-fitted 1M5 trailer hitch preparation
I am not sure if my S 4motion needs one.
Can I just use a Tee harness that taps into the rear lights.

I am not sure where to look for the J345 harness if needed.
I am aware of the now 2000 lb weight limit with aftermarket hitch.
I have seen that if the j345 is added other modules need to be programmed also.
Any advice and guidance would be greatly appreciated.
