Installation of a Trailer Wiring Harness on a 2006 Dodge Ram


Today we are going to install part number 37185 on our 2006 Dodge full size pickup 1500 with the 4 pole wiring flat installed from the factory. To begin our install the bumper already has a knockout ready for a 7 pole trailer connector. All I have to do is pop off this cover and it is ready to go. Next we can go ahead and install our 7 pole. Basically you just plug it right in and then give it a little push so it snaps into place. Now we can go ahead and install our hardware. We can now move under the vehicle to make some of our final connections here. In this application we are just going to install the 4 pole. There is not a brake controller or hot lead being used so we will bind this all back up and tuck it out of the way. We will go ahead and install some dielectric grease in here then install them together.

Then we want to run a zip tie all the way around them to keep them together. If this was going to be a permanent installation than you can go ahead and wrap it in electrical tape for extra security. Next we will take our white wire for grounding and lets go run it over the hitch and the frame. Then back down to the frame and this is where we will install a ground screw. Then we will take our left over wires and leave the ends out available for expansion later if needed. We will go ahead and zip tie it back up behind the bumper. That concludes our install of part number 37185 from Hoppy on a Dodge 1500 full size pickup.
