• 5-Way Trailer Wiring Adapter Recommendation for 2018 Ford F-150
  Since the 5-way trailer wiring connector isn't the most common style of connectors there isn't a direct 5-way adapter we can recommend to attach to the wiring of your 2018 Ford F-150. Instead the best option is to use a 7-way to 5-way adapter like part # A10-7275VP installed in a 7-way that fits the connector your 2018 Ford F-150 like the part # A10-7072VP.

• Replacement 7-Way and Bracket for 2001 GMC Sierra 1500
  The Hopkins Endurance Twist Mount 7-Way RV Trailer Connector # HM40930 is designed specifically to mount (and twist) into the factory bracket for your GMC Sierra. Unfortunately this style bracket is not available as an aftermarket part. You may be able to contact your local GMC dealer to see if they have this part available but if not your best option will be to use a standard 7-Way and bracket as a replacement. For this I recommend the Mighty Cord 7-Way # A10-7072VP along with the Mounting...

• Trailer Connector Recommendation and Install on 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  Since your Grand Cherokee has the US car connector under and behind the rear bumper (see photo), you'll just need part # C55774 which installs as shown in the video I've linked. This connector provides both the 4-pole and the 7-way trailer connector. According to Curt, in some instances the vehicle's computer will need to be flashed at the dealership in order to fully activate the tow package. If your trailer has electric brakes and you want them to actuate you'll need a brake controller...

• Troubleshooting Trailer Running Lights Not Working on 2008 Ford Super Duty Truck
  The most likely reasons your trailer running light circuit isn't working is corrosion on the pins of the trailer connector or a blown fuse under the hood of your 2008 Ford Super duty truck. First try cleaning all of the pins on your 7-way with sandpaper to see if that allows the connection to be made and if that does not work try checking the fuses under the hood of the truck. If the 7-way of your truck looks pretty rough you might just replace it with the part # A10-7072VP.

• Troubleshooting Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Brake Controller on Brand New Trailer
  From what you are describing, it sounds like we're dealing with a short on the brake circuit. The "P.L." code is displayed when the P2 # 90885 senses a power interruption while the brake pedal is depressed. A solid ".c." for electric brakes or ".C." for electric over hydraulic brakes, indicates the trailer is connected, so the fact that it was flashing reassures us the connection is not solid. I would start by checking your trailer connector. Disconnect the trailer and clean any dirt or...

• What Would Cause 7-Way Trailer Connectors on Truck and Trailer to Melt When Connected
  Sounds like you had a massive short to ground on the 12 volt accessory circuit of the trailer wiring. This circuit is in the 1:00 position of the female connector on the truck. The ground circuit is in the position opposite of this in the 7:00 position. My guess is there was exposed wire on the trailer side between these two circuits and they touched which caused the problem. For a new 7-way kit for the trailer you'd want the part # HS381-9000 and then for a new 7-way for the truck you'd...

• Troubleshooting Brake Controller and Poor Braking on Trailer Towed by 2018 Toyota Tundra
  The three main things that could be causing your issue are: 1) Insufficient brake adjustment. The adjusters should be turned 'out' until you can't turn the wheel by hand when it's jacked up off the ground. Then the adjusters should be backed off by 10 or so clicks so there's still a slight drag from the brake shoes. 2) The brake shoes should be broken in correctly or 'burnished'. This is done by applying the brakes 20 to 30 times to decrease the speed by 20 mph. Example, once reaching...

• Troubleshooting No Running Light Signal on Factory 7-Way on 2013 Dodge Ram 2500
  If the 7-way trailer socket pin for running lights on your Dodge 2500, the one at the 11:00 position as you look at the socket, has no signal and you have already checked the related vehicle fuse 29 (a 20-amp yellow) for that function then I suggest you test the wiring leading to it to find the point where the signal is lost. Apply your tester, one like # PTW2993, to the wiring that leads to the connector and move forward until you find the point where the running light signal is present....

• Troubleshooting Trailer Brakes Engaging When Flasher/Hazard Lights Are Turned On
  In 7-way wiring the trailer brake circuit's contact/pin is next to the contact for the right turn/stop circuit. What can happen is that corrosion can build up on or inside either the truck socket or the trailer plug and this corrosive build-up can actually cause two adjacent circuits to become bridged together. If this happened between the right turn/stop circuit and the brake circuit applying your flashers would send a 12V signal to the brake circuit. Sometimes this corrosion (or trapped...

• Replacement 7-Way Options for a 2002 Ford F-150

If that is the case then I recommend removing your 7-Way and, using a Circuit Tester like part # PTW2992, testing the pins on the car connector. If those pins are sending signals then you may just need to replace your actual 7-Way connector with part # A10-7072VP.

• 7-Way Wiring Kit for 1999 Ford Expedition
  For a 1999 Ford Expedition with factory-installed 7-way the replacement connector is part # A10-7072VP. For a combination 4-pole/7-way instead you could use # HM40975.
