Fifth Wheel and Gooseneck Wiring Harness Installation - 2006 Ford F-350

Video Transcript for Fifth Wheel and Gooseneck Wiring Harness Installation - 2006 Ford F-350

Today on this 2006 Ford F350, well be installing the Pollack T-One connector part number pk11893-11932. We will start off at the bumper of the vehicle where you will find the previously installed 7 pole with a gray locking tab on it. We will undo the lock and pull the 7 pole free, but first we will need to loosen this bracket here for more working room. With everything separated we will start installing the T- One harness and lock it into position. Now that we have made our connections underneath we need to go ahead and drill a hole so that we can mount our connector in the bed. It is recommended that you have a minimum five inch clearance behind where ever you are going to drill.

Now we will take the other end of our new wiring harness, feed it up behind the fender and out the hole we just drilled. With our wiring through the hole we can now put it in our new connector. Following the numbers and colors listed in the instructions, you want to match it up to the numbers that are on the back of your connector. Make sure you press them in firmly so they lock in place, give it a little tug to make sure. You want to make sure you do the center pin before you complete all the others first.

With all of our wires in place we can go ahead and install our locking tab. Now with all of our wires installed and our locking tab in place we can go ahead and put our connectors together and push in on our gray locking tab to secure it. With all of our wires connected we can go ahead and secure our new 7 pole connection, I am going to use self tapping screws. That completes the installation of our new Pollak 7 pole connector. .

Troubleshooting Right Side Trailer Lights Not Working, Left Side Working Correctly
Most trailer wiring problems are the result of a bad ground. What I would do is start with the connectors. Maker sure the connectors on both the trailer side and vehicle side are free of dirt and corrosion and that they are properly grounded. Next, I would move on to testing the vehicle side connector using a circuit tester like # 3808. Since the right side is not working, you will want to test the pins of the connector for right turn and brake. If looking at the face of the connector, it is

7-Way Trailer Wiring Connector for a 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500 with Factory Tow Package
First I would need to know how your 7-Way connector is different than newer models. Is if pinned out differently (the pin functions are in different locations between the years) or is it that it connects to the vehicle differently?

When Truck With 6-Way Connector is Put in Reverse the Trailer Brakes Lock Up
Are you certain that you have the 6-way connector, like part # PK12720 with the 6 round pins?

Trailer Running Lights Not Working When Using a 7-Way to 4-Way Adapter
It sounds like you have a 7-Way and are using a 7 to 4-Way adapter because the trailer has a 4-Way flat.

Center High Mount Stop Light (CHMSL) Location on a 2006 Chevy Silverado for a Third Brake Light
The 2006 Chevy Silverado will have the same wiring situation as a 2005. Locate the wire loom under the truck and above the spare tire.

12 Volt Power to 7-Way Trailer Connector Not Working on a 2004 Chevy Silverado
If your 2004 Chevrolet Silverado has the factory tow package wiring that utilizes the # PK11893 style trailer connector, the first thing I would check is the tow package fuses in the power distribution box under the hood. You should find a legend under the lid of the box that details where the fuses are. Check to see if the fuse for the 7-Way 12 volt power is not installed in the correct location or is blown. Replace or insert a fuse as needed using the proper amperage fuse listed on the lid.
