Great product - the overall depth is a bit deep and for my specific application I had some challenges finding a good mounting point (partially due to the depth of the adapter and partly due to the lack of solid mounting surface. The product itself is sold with a flexible five/four way plug (single plug accommodates both the four and five pin) that will not easily break. The seven pin plug has a fairly stiff cover that is spring loaded. Wiring was simple too! 30756

Its exactly what I needed to rewire my truck (2002 F150). My only complaint is that once you snap all the parts together in the rear, its very difficult to take apart. I ended up breaking off one of the clasps while trying to adjust the wiring. It still seals in the wires and has a tight fit. I really like my setup now!!!30096

I received the product quickly and in perfect condition the packing was excellant. I installed the connector easily and quickly. I consulted the Gm wiring diagram and als found the wires for all the 7 connections. I had a tight spot within the bumper edge, but managed to find short bolts to attach the bracket in old exsisting holes. The rest was easy attaching the connectors and making sure all wires were through the rear enclosure and tightening them down. I tested the 4 wire connector with my boat trailer lights and it worked like it was designed to do. I LOVE the versatility of this connector. Thanks etrailer.com!! Great product at a great price. 14869

I like this trailer connection. It seems to be well made and it is reasonably priced. I received my order in a reasonable time as well. The installation was not difficult and the wiring diagram was clear and understandable. I really like the idea that I can now tow a trailer with just about any type of connection and it will work.14028

Great plug. The rear cover has two clips to hold the wire cover on the back. If you attach the wire cover, don't try to remove it, brand new the clips break off. Very fragile. Other than that the plug is easy to install and wire and hold the trailer plug firmly. 11114

  • Wiring of Trailer Connector Adapter on 1995 Toyota Pickup
  • Although the wire colors can vary by vehicle or trailer manufacturers, there is one standard way to wire a 7-way blade style trailer connector. If you are looking at the front of the connector as it is installed on the rear of a vehicle, beginning with the top pin just right of center and continuing on clockwise, first pin carries 12 volts for any trailer accessories needing power, the next pin carries the right directional/brake light signal, the next pin would carry the output from the brake c

  • What is the Length of the Wire Housing and Boot on Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7, 5, and 4-Way
  • The third alternate picture, shows the 4/5 Way connector at the bottom of the part. You can use either a flat 4-Way or a flat 5-Way on this connection point. I have provided a link directly to this photo. The measurement from the back of the mounting plate to the end of the wiring housing and boot is 2-1/2 inches.

  • How To Install A 7-Way Connector In The Bed Of A 2002 Ford F-250 For A Fifth Wheel
  • If you have a factory tow package with a factory 7-way trailer connector already on your 2002 Ford F-250 Super Duty, then I have a couple of recommendations to put a 7-way in the bed of your truck. The Draw-Tite Wiring Harness, # 51-97-410, will plug inline between the OEM wiring harness and the factory installed 7-way connector under your truck bed. You will retain the use of the factory 7-way on the bumper and then have 9 feet of wiring harness to have a 7-way in your truck bed. The Draw

  • What is Needed to Add a 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 2009 Audi A6 Avant
  • The Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-, 5- and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Vehicle End - Ergonomic Design, # HM48470, can mount pretty much anywhere you want it to. The most common place is to the left (driver side) of the trailer hitch receiver opening. Based on the design of the trailer hitches for the 2009 Audi A6 Avant, if you were to install it on the bottom of the cross tubing of the hitch, it will be a little below the trailer hitch receiver opening. If this is too low, you can mount it in

  • Mounting The Hopkins Multi-Tow 7-, 5- and 4-Way Trailer Connector # HM48470 On A 2010 Volvo XC90

With the hitch installed on your 2010 Volvo XC90 the mounting plate is located to the drivers side of the 2 inch receiver opening.

  • How To Install A 7 Way And 4-Way Connector To Factory 7-Way On A 1995 Ford F-250 SuperCab
  • The Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-, 5- and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector, part # HM48470, would have to be hardwired to your existing wiring harness. If the 7-way you have on your 1995 Ford F-250 SuperCab is a plug-in connector you will need to sever the wires on the back of the connector. Then, attach each wire from the factory harness to the screw, for that same function, on the back of the Hopkins connector.

  • Adding a 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 1997 Chevy C/K Series Pickup
  • It sounds like you need to add a 7-Way RV style trailer connector to your 1997 Chevy pickup. Since you already have a connector, you will just need to add a 4 and 7 Way Installation Kit, # ETBC7. Though I am not certain if you have a 5-Way flat connector or a 4-Way flat connector. If you have a 4-Way, it will plug into the back of the ETBC7. If you have a 5-Way, I recommend first installing a 4-Way using part # 118315, and plugging it into the back of the ETBC7. With the 4-Way plugged into th

  • Wiring the Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow Trailer Connector # HM48470 on a 2001 Mercury Mountaineer
  • If the black wire on your 2001 Mercury Mountaineer is the 12V power wire from the vehicles battery you will want to connect that wire to the terminal at the eleven oclock position on the back of the Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow Trailer Connector, part # HM48470. When wiring the Hopkins connector to your vehicle I would recommend to use a circuit tester like the Quickee Tester, # 3808 to test the functions of the wires and wire the connector by function and not just color.

  • Parts Needed to Add a 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 1998 Dodge Ram 1500
  • If your 1998 Dodge Ram came with a 7-Way and you need a replacement you can use Pollak 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket, # HM40975, and Pigtail Wiring Harness, # PK11998 if needed. The Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-, 5- and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector, # HM48470, can be used as well but it is a hardwire connector meaning you would have to attach existing wires from the truck to the connector according to the wiring diagram I have linked for you.

  • 7-Way to 5-Way Trailer Adapter Does Not Operate Right Turn and Brake Lights, 2003 Chevy Trailblazer
  • The adapter that you purchased may be wired or configured differently than your trailer. You will want to plug in the adapter and test the pins on it for function. A traditional 5-Way flat will have the far left pin as electric brakes or for an electric lock out. Since your trailer has surge brakes, it probably has an electric lock out so this pin would need to be connect to the reverse light circuit on the vehicle. The pin next to that is for right turn and brakes. The next pin is left turn

  • Replacing a 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 2008 Nissan Frontier
  • You will need to use a circuit tester like # 3808 if needed to test the wires on your 2008 Nissan Frontier to determine the function of each wire. Make sure that you label the wires somehow to make installation and troubleshooting easier. Once you have determined the unctions of all of the wires you will connect them to the back of the Hopkins 7-Way trailer connector, # HM48470, in the following way: Center pole = reverse lights 1 oclock position = running lights 3 oclock position = left
