• Which is Preferred Connection for SMI CoachLink 900 Wireless Transmitter
  
• The SMI CoachLink 900 Wireless Transmitter and Receiver Braking Indicator Set # SM99945 that you mentioned comes with a couple butt end connectors and a couple quick splices for tapping into a circuit. I personally don't care for quick splices as the few times I've tried to use them I either ended up cutting the circuit I was trying to tap into or didn't press the blade hard enough to get the circuits to contact. The best connection would be to solder it. For that we have the part #...

• Installing Trailer Brake Controller on 2012 Chevy Silverado with Factory 7-Way
  
• If your 2012 Chevy Silverado is equipped with the factory 7-Way connector at the rear there isn't an actual OEM port behind the dash for a brake controller plug-and-play install, however all the needed wiring is present. This means you can simply hardwire the Dexter Predator DX2 Brake Controller # 58-8 directly to the factory wire bundle behind the dash of your truck. Based on my research these blunt cut wires are behind the steering column. You will make the following connections using...

• Recommended Parts For Changing Surge Coupler To Electric Over Hydraulic Disc
  
• When changing your trailer over you will need to do the complete change at one time since some of the parts are made for specific type brakes. I have attached a drawing that shows how the Titan BrakeRite EHB Electric-Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes, part # T4813100 is attached. The # T4813100, has 5 wires that are blue, black, white, brown and purple. You will want to splice the blue wire from the adapter to the blue wire from the actuator.

• How To Install the Gustafson RV Sidewall Light Part # 277-000261
  
• The Gustafson RV Sidewall Light part # 277-000261 is very easy to install. The mounting plate can be installed using standard wood screws as you mentioned. If you like, you can use anchors for added support but these won't really be needed, just make sure to attach the base to a secure surface. In regards to wiring, there is one black wire for power and then one white wire for ground. These wires will need to be run to the distribution panel so the light can receive power.

• Getting Trailer Wiring Harness 118416 to Work with a 2017 Jeep Wrangler Right-Hand Drive Model
  
• For some reason the right-hand drive version of the 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited doesn't have the same tail light wiring as left-hand drive models. What you will have to do is plug in wiring harness # 118416 to one side or the other. On the side it is not plugged into use a circuit tester such as # 40376 to locate the wire that carries the turn signal and brake light function. Splice a wire into that wire on the vehicle using a quick splice connector such as # SWC501746-1 and wire # 16-1-1...

• Correcting Reversed Turn Signal Lights on Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness HM43415
  
• It sounds like the wiring on your 2000 4Runner needs to be corrected so that the turn signal lights activate correctly and are consistent with the wiring on your other vehicles. First make sure the tail light connectors are installed on the correct side of the 4Runner. The plug with the yellow wire should be connected at the left/driver side tail light and the plug with the green wire should be connected to the right/passenger side tail light. If this is how it is installed and the...

• Installation of Reese Brakeman Trailer Brake Controller in 2014 Dodge Ram
  
• The trailer brake controller custom wiring adapter that you referenced, Tekonsha part # 3023-P works with all Tekonsha controllers unless they are the hard-wire type like your Brakeman. Based on my research the Brakeman has four hard-wired leads exiting its back rather than a plug to accept the adapter. You can still use the adapter to make the truck-side connection to the under-dash port, and simply cut off the flat connector (that is intended for the rear port on a current Tekonsha...

• How to Install the Bargman Taillight Assemblies part # 47-84-008
  
• I don't have a set of installation instructions for the # 47-84-008 that I can show you, but I can walk you through the installation. What you will need to do is first remove the current taillights you have on your trailer. Remove any screws from the assembly and pull it out. Next you will need to cut the wires that ran from the old assembly. Try to note if you can what the functions of the wire are. This may not be possible but if so it will help to wire up the new assembly. Next...

• Which Wiring Harness Will Be Needed to Install the Optronics GloLight LED Trailer Light STL178RFPB
  
• The proper hardwire wiring harness for the # STL178RFPB GloLight LED trailer tail light is the # A47PB. A great and similar style side marker/clearance and turn light is the # STL78AB, this will already have the proper wires to install on your trailer. If you prefer it to be a GloLight like your tail lights we do have one from Optronics # STL111AB. The wiring harness you will need to install the GloLight # STL111AB to your trailer is part number # A47PB. Since the GloLight LED doesn't...

• Recommended Wire Gauge Needed to Extend Vent Fan Power Wire to Charge Controller
  
• To wire up your Ventline vent # VP-543SP the correct gauge wire needed is a 16 gauge like # DW02359-1. You will also want to use the 16 gauge buttconnectors like # DW05714 to connect the two wires. You definitely want this to be connected to a fused power source so if your charge controller isn't fused then on the 16 gauge wire you would want to wire in a 5amp fuse to protect the unit.

• How to Wire Tekonsha Sentinel Brake Controller in 2007 Chevy Suburban
  
• Your 2007 Chevy Suburban will have tow package wiring under the dash and typically these wires will be red, dark blue, light blue (or orange) and white. These tow package wires should be below the steering column to the left of the brake pedal and tied together with white tape. It sounds like you have found the correct wires although the colors may have faded slightly from age. The RED wire from the Suburban connects to the BLACK wire on the controller; the DARK BLUE wire connects to...

• Replacing Trailer 5-Way That Has Each Circuit Split Into Two Wires
  
• That specific version of 5-way is not available at this time but the # A25W5B is the closest solution we have to this. It has the brown wire "wishboned" or split for either side of the trailer but the rest of the wires are a single wire per circuit. So what you'd need to do is run both of the wires you have on your trailer to the single wire on the 5-way and you'd be set. For butt connectors we have the part # DW05714.

All you would need to do to install the light is use two self tapping screws like part # 1131832 to mount the base and then once this is done you can attach the light to the base. To complete the process you will then need to attach the black wire to the running light circuit on your trailer which is...

• OEM-Style Trailer Wiring Harness for 2011 Nissan Rogue SV
  
• We do offer a custom 4-pole trailer wiring harness for the 2011 Rogue that plugs in at the tail light assemblies, part # 118480 from Tow Ready. This product wires in to your Rogue at a different point than the OEM harness which we do not offer. I have linked an installation video showing the process in a 2011 Rogue. The Tow Ready harness does require a 12V power input to its red wire (made through the included wire and fuse holder). Normally this wiring connection is run up along the...

• Is there a Backup-Alert Reverse Light for Bulb Type 921 for the 2013 Chevrolet Equinox
  
• Your 2013 Chevrolet Equinox uses a type 921 backup light bulb. The Hopkins product you reviewed, part # HM20101VA, is a replacement for the type 3156 bulb. My contact at Hopkins advises that they do not offer an audible alarm replacement bulb for the 921 type. I also checked with two other suppliers of aftermarket lighting products, Putco and Optronics, and neither of these suppliers offers a 921 replacement bulb with alarm. However, we do offer the Custer Surface Mount Back-up Alarm,...

• Parts Needed to Install GloLight LED Trailer Tail Light # STL178RFPB to Trailer Wiring
  
• Best option would be to connect the # A47PB to the wiring you have on your trailer currently so that you can easily plug in the GloLight LED Trailer Tail Light # STL178RFPB. For butt connectors you'd then want the part # DW05714. This is a really solid choice for a light and would work well for your 2018 Grand Design Solitude.

• How to Install an Amber Turn and Parking Light on a Trailer with Combined Brake and Turn Signals
  
• Many people inquire about wiring a trailer in the way you describe, and it is possible, but you will need to use a vehicle to vehicle taillight converter, part # 118158, to accomplish this. The converter will be wired inline on the trailer wiring and will break out the turn and brake circuits. I attached a drawing that shows how I would go about wiring this converter on a simple 4 wire trailer. You would just need to cap off the red wire on the output side of the converter and tie that...

• Installation of Midship Marker and Turn Signal Light on 1996 Holiday Rambler Endeavor
  
• Good news! I can help you wire up a mid-ship turn signal your 96 Holiday Rambler Endeavor, but the Optronics light # MCL32AB you asked about will not blink while you have the running lights on. What you will need is the Amber LED Mid-Ship light with flange # STL75AMFB. I recommend using butt connectors # DW05714 and 16 gauge wire # 16-1-1 to make the connection to the diode from the original circuits. I have linked all the above mentioned products to this page for your purchasing...

• When is it Recommended To Use Dielectric Grease When Wiring
  
• We want to thank you for your recent purchase! You wouldn't need to use dielectric grease with a butt connector such as part # DW05714 (view video at the 1:16 mark) as electrical tape will work great. Heat shrinkable tubing such as part # DW05451 will help protect against the elements. It works with 14-18 gauge wire. Most trailer light wiring is 16-gauge. Once you have your wire inside the tubing you can use a heat gun, blow dryer and/or lighter utilize the heat shrinkable tubing....

• Locating Reverse Light Circuit on 2001 Dodge Ram 1500
  
• I do not have any information that is specific to your 2001 Ram, but I can certainly help you through the process. The easiest way to do this is to access the rear of one of your tail light assemblies, as if you were replacing a burned out bulb. Once you look at the rear of the assembly, it should be immediately evident which wire feeds the reverse light (clear bulb). You would tap the wire with the blue stripe into that circuit, using a butt connector like part # DW05714. Be sure to...

• How to Power an Interior Truck Cap Light on a 2002 GMC Sierra 4x4
  
• You have a number of options to power an interior light on your truck bed cap. You could use the 12 volt power wire going to the trailer connector on your truck as a power source. I recommend installing a switch to turn the light on and off when needed, unless the light comes with a switch. Another option would be to run the wire from the cap light directly to the vehicle battery. Again, I recommend installing a switch if you do not already have one so the light does not stay on all...

• How to Access Reverse Light Signal on 2014 Volkswagen Passat

Please refer to the linked photo of a 7-way vehicle socket. The center pin carries the reverse light signal in most typical applications. It is not difficult to tap into the reverse...

• Installing Brake Controller in 1998 GMC Jimmy with Cut Off 4-Way
  
• The kit you'll want instead of the # 37185 is the part # ETBC7L as it comes with the same 4-way to 7-way adapter but it also comes with the wiring needed to install a brake controller like the Curt # C51180. Since your 4-way was cut off you'd need to also cut the wire off of the 7-way adapter and hardwire the connections there. Since 4-ways use standard colors you'd just need to wire them color for color. For butt connectors to make these connections you'll want the # DW05714 for each...
