Review on Wiring Trailer Lights
Today were going to talk about a problem that comes up in our e-mails sometimes, how to wire these lights up. A lot of people wonder how to the wires into this light fixture. Some people think there is a plug missing when actually there is not and well show you how to work that. As you can see here the back of the light is labeled for what wire goes to what you have green for the right turn signal and brown for the running lights, on the other side it would be yellow for the left turn. However since were using this one light we do not have to worry about that. Just take you wire and strip it back to anywhere from 3/8 to 1/2 an inch, it does not take much. Give it a good twist because that makes the wire stronger as it goes in. Now the brown wire to about a half inch or so, not that much. Then what well do is you simply just take it and it does not matter which hole you use as long as the green wire stays on this side of the bar.
Ignore the little holes there completely, those are used to release the wire. You simply take the wire and gently push it in till the plastic meets the opening and that would be good enough, then you do the same with the brown wire. Then give it a good tug and that is how you wire it. If you remember we were talking about these small holes here, those are used to release the wires. It pushes down that little metal tab or brass tab that holds the wire against the tension. You simply press down on it takes a little bit of force then you can pull the other wire out. Well do that to the other wire and that will be it. The wiring tips we have shown you apply to part # 444, 444L, 440 or 432200, and 440L or 432400.
