1999 Ford Explorer Questions and Answers


  • What Color is the Brake Switch Wire to Use to Install a Draw Tite Activator Brake Controller
  • The wire you will want to use on your 1999 Ford Explorer should be a solid green wire. I would double-check with a circuit tester like the # 3808 to be sure. The 12 volt power source that runs to the 7-way is for auxiliary circuits like a winch or lights like you mentioned. In order for your brake controller to activate the brakes on your trailer you will not need to have this circuit wired up.

  • Installing a Pulse Preventer and a Hopkins 4-Way to 7-Way Adapter # 37185 on a 1999 Ford Explorer
  • When you install the pulse preventer # 5501 on your 1999 Ford Explorer you will be installing it inline on the vehicle brake output (cold side) wire, after the connection where the brake controller is spliced in. Find the spot where the brake controller is spliced into the wire from the cold side of the stoplight switch. Then just past this (away from brake controller) cut the vehicle stoplight wire and install the pulse preventer inline with the yellow wire on the side that the stoplight swi

  • What is Required to Tow a 1750kg Trailer With a 1999 Ford Explorer
  • If your trailer weighs 1750kg, or around 3900lbs, when it is loaded, the # 70647 hitch would be a good choice for your application, as it is rated for 5000lbs towing capacity. However, if you already have a trailer hitch installed from the factory on your 1999 Ford Explorer, I would recommend checking the capacity. If the capacity rating on the factory hitch was high enough, at 4000 or 5000lbs, you could just use the hitch you already have installed. You will also need to wire the vehicl

  • Wiring Harness Connection Location On a 1999 Ford Explorer Limited with Tow Package
  • I see exactly what you are talking about. I checked the stock we have on hand and all of the # 118241 wiring harnesses have the pins in the 3 O-clock and 10 O-clock positions with the locking tab up. I then spoke with our installation tech and he feels that the directions for the 1999 Explorer are wrong. He says that he remembers having to use the connector that is on the drivers side and that the picture on our web page was taken following the manufacturers directions and never got corrected. C

  • Installing a 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 1999 Ford Explorer
  • Many people find that 12 Volt circuit helpful for keeping a trailer battery charged, for a break away system, or for powering accessories on the trailer but it is not absolutely necessary. I would go ahead and wire it up, better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. You would want to use a minimum of 12 gauge wire and run it to the positive battery terminal via a 40 amp inline circuit breaker, part number 9510. I'll include a link for the breaker which you can find below
