Parts Needed to Convert a Separate Tail Light Signal of a Honda Goldwing to Combined for Towing

It sounds like the adapter you used dropped the brake light circuit when it went from a 5-way to a 4-way. Normally on a 4-way the brake light circuit is on the turn signal circuit. Motorcycles usually have a separate wire/circuit for just the brake lights separate from the turn signals so I believe that is where your problem is from.

I believe I have a solution for you, but not with using the adapter you have.

I would recommend you cut off the 5-way on your motorcycle. Wire in a tail light converter kit part # HM48895. This will convert your separate circuit tail light signal of your motorcycle to a combined circuit like what your trailer has.

You will need a circuit tester like our part # 3808 to determine the functions of the connector on your motorcycle and then need to wire it by function to the circuits of the # HM48995.

I attached an FAQ on trailer wiring for you to check out also.
