I won't bother with local stores. etrailer had what I wanted after local stores said it wasn't available. Postage much cheaper than the gas to drive around and not find it. Nice people at etrailer, great communication, super fast shipping. I will be ordering more from them.28615

It works perfectly. I also ordered the mounting bracket for the frame and the mounting bracket for the unit. it all was very easy to assemble. I think the wireing could have been a couple inches longer to compensate for the orginal mounting bracket being wider than the acutal plug in. over all it is a good investment. It save a lot of headaches.53576

Expert Answers about Adapter 6 Pole to 7 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter - 47435                                             Do you have a question about this Wiring?


  • Wire Length of 6-Way to 7-Way Adapter Part # 47435
  • I pulled one from our warehouse, The wiring harness on the adapter measures 6-1/2 inches in length. If you need a longer adapter, you can construct your own by using 3ft long 6-pole trailer connector # H20032, or 8ft long trailer connector # H20036 and 7-pole vehicle end connector # PK11893. I have included a link to an FAQ page with some diagrams that would help you install the wiring on the 7-way connector.

  • What Part Can Be used to Install a 7-Way on a 2005 Chevy Silverado
  • Your 2005 Chevrolet Silverado is already wired for a 7-Way connector. There is a wiring harness run near the spare tire that has a connector that can be connected to a 7-Way. The part you are looking for is Hopkins part # 30955. I have linked to this product below. Follow the link and at the bottom of the page you will see the type of connector you are looking for. Simply remove the cap and plug in the new 7-Way.

  • Adapter for a 6-Pole on a Pick Up Truck and a 7-Way Blade on a 1989 Layton 5th Wheel Trailer
  • If your pick up has a 6 round connector, and your 1989 Layton 5th wheel trailer has a 7-Way blade, then the 6 Pole to 7 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter, # 47435, is the correct adapter for you. When going from a 6-Pole on the vehicle, to a 7-Way on the trailer, the center pole on the 7-Way will be inactive because the center pole is for reverse lights. On a 6-Way connector, there is no pole for reverse lights, thus rendering the center pole on the 7-Way part of the adapter inactive.

  • Trailer Connector Adapter to Convert 7-Way on Truck to 6-Way
  • To adapt the 7-way connector on your truck to the 6-way on your trailer, I would recommend the 7 Pole to 6 Pole Adapter with 4 Pole, part # 47565. This adapter also has an integrated 4-pole connector. There are two accepted methods of wiring a 6-way connector, one uses the center pin as the brake output circuit, the other uses the center pin as the 12-volt lead for accessory power. This adapter can be wired either way. To see a diagram showing how a 6-way connector is wired, click on the l

  • Hooking Up My RV w/ 6-Way Connector To Trailer w/ 7-Way Connector
  • You will be able to use the 6 To 7-Way Adapter, part # 47435, to match the RV and trailer plugs, and you will also need to run a Blue brake controller output wire from the brake controller to the rear trailer connector. However there is another way to connect your trailer wiring that would eliminate the need for the # 47435 adapter. What you can do, is check to see if there is a 4-way connector connected to your 6-way. If there is not a 4-way connected to the 6-Way, you can just cut the 6-way

  • Where Does the Blue Brake Controller Wire Connect to on a 6-Way Round Trailer Connector
  • The blue wire is for brake output power to the trailer brakes. One end connects to the brake controller and the other end goes to the pin in the trailer connector on the vehicle side that is for the trailer brakes. The Adapter 6 Pole to 7 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter, # 47435, would be if your towing vehicle has a 6-Way round pin trailer connector and the trailer has a 7-Way blade style trailer connector. In this case, on the truck, the brake pin would be in the 2 oclock position, if looking

  • How to Wire a Trailer or Vehicle to Go from a 6-Way Round Vehicle Connector to a 7-Way RV Connector
  • You could use an adapter like the Hopkins 6 pole to 7 pole adapter, item # 47435, to tow your trailer with a 7-Way RV plug on it. You may need to make some wiring changes if the adapter wiring does not match the vehicle or trailer wiring. You would lose the center function of the 7-Way with this adapter. There are two options that I believe are better choices. The best choice would be to install a 7-Way Trailer connection on your vehicle. The Pollak 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Socket, item # PK1

  • Mounting Bracket for an Adapter 6 Pole to 7 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter # 47435
  • You will need a mounting bracket, like # 18138, to mount the adapter # 47435. The bracket comes with the hardware to attach the adapter to it and to attach the bracket to the truck using self-tapping screws included with the bracket.

  • Using a 6-Way to 7-Way Adapter for a RV with 6-Way Round Socket and Trailer with a 7-way Connector
  • The Hopkins 6 Pole to 7 Pole Adapter, # 47435, does have a pin for the brake output for a brake controller. This adapter will work for your set up as long as the center pin of the 6-way plug on your RV is for 12v power and the pin in the 10 o clock position is for the brakes. You can verify this using a circuit tester like part # 3808. If the center pin on your 6-way plug is wired for brakes and the pin in the 10 o clock position is for 12v power, then you can still make an adapter using a 6-
