Excellent product

great product!!!



by:

Qaulaity looks good and plan to install it soon.



by:

Prompt service, good communication and fast shipping.
Thxs!



by:

Wire colors were the same as my Ford but had different jobs, but quality is second to none.



by:

Best price on the web. OEM replacement fit perfectly. Much better quality than the replacement available at the local Walmart.



by:

Great quality!I bought this product for future (1 month) installation in an used van that I purchased. I received the product in a fantastically short period of time. I am very impressed with the quality of the workmanship and materials.



by:

The part was delivered on the promised date. The web site provided plenty of information for easy installation making for a smooth transaction. I would definitely purchase other products from etrailer.com.



by:

Easy, easy, easy! Simply use the supplied crimp connectors to color match the wires, plug into your trailer connector and your done! Your done.



by:

Very good quality, prompt delivery best pricing by far ( we did a lot of web research before placing the orders). Will do business again and recommend your web site to my friends and co-workers.Thank you, e-trailer team for a job well done. Keep up the good work.



by:

Worked perfectly. I was able to make this a permanent fixture to my truck. I would suggest soldering and sealing the connections rather than the crimp connectors that come with it to prevent corrosion problems later on down the road.



by:

PerfectI resently purchased a new 4x4 and the truck game without a tow hitch ,so I bought one from the dealer and it came without the trailer plug so when I asked them how long do I have to wait for one they told me it was on a nationwide backlog so I went online looking at a few web sites but didn't see what I liked .I went crazy searching for this product until I log on to yours. I found everthing I needed and your prices where better than other venders ,And your shipping was on the money and didn't have to wait long . I would recomment your website to all my friends.



by:

This harness plugs right into the factory 7 pin plug that comes with the factory hitch and works perfectly to replace a worn factory plug.My ground wire pin had become loose in the plug and had my trailer lights working intermittently .GM also sells a repair plug but it is over $100.00 and comes with the 7 pin plug and a four pin connector which I didn't need.Just be sure to connect one wire at a time as the color of some wires do not match.I started with the white wire and worked my way around the plug and it works perfect.Thanks for a good product at a great price!



by:

New wiring harness and receptable work great. Installed in the rear of my truck bed for connecting my 5th wheel trailer...so much easier than running the RV cable over the tailgate to the 7-pin connector by receiver hitch. Thanks...



by:

Pigtail worked as expected with mating rv 7 blade socket. Easy for replacement of existing parts.



by:

I received everything in short order.
The
instructions from the website gave great detail.

The only thing I would add would be to measure the distance between the

tabs on the original hitch and make the same on the new one by

bending/taping them.



by:

Plenty of wire



by:

Used this product in conjunction with pollak #pk11893 to upgrade my 95' ford E-350 wireing under the rear bumper to more readily available standard parts. I have had a few orders over the years from etrailer, always a pleasure to deal with.



by:

It was easy to install and took care of the issue I had of one of the trailer light segments not working.



by:

The Pigtail assembly that I received was wired incorrectly. Normal seven pin color coding was not followed. The Yellow wire (normally left turn/stop light), was wired into the backup light center pin, the red wire (normally +12 volt supply), was wired into the left turn/stop pin, and the black wire (normally backup lights), was wired to the +12 volt supply pin. Good quality wire and correct gauge, probably just a supplier / quality control issue.

Theres more than one accepted wiring convention for a 7-way trailer connector, which is why we list the wire color code on the product description page on our website.



by:

Just received the wire pigtail today. Had ordered the 7 pin plug thinking I wouldn't need the pigtail. Save yourself some time and get them both. It's cheaper in the long run. Good product.

I completely rewired my trailer about a year ago using all of your wiring and lights. Everything works great. Thanks.



by:

The delivery time was excellent. The new plug installation was easy and will hopefully fix the intermittent loss of connection problem. The only other comment is, I found it easier to do this work after I lowered the spare tire.It then provides a lot more working room and light.



by:

This also fits the Pollack 11-916. The PK 11916 seems to be the twist lock version of the 4 bolt 11893. The 11916 came with the GM hitch that I installed on my Silverado.

Caution; once I pushed the PK11998 onto the PK11916, the internal locking tab engaged without using the external lock / unlock button. The only way to get the harness off was to force the two apart thus breaking the internal locking tab. That doesn't seem to be a problem because everything is a tight fit anyway. The locking tab seems to be overkill, kind of like "wearing suspenders with a belt".



by:

The color code is all wrong with this harness. After I wired all the colors together, I tested my trailer lights and the left side didn't work. After researching on the etrailer site I come to find out this thing is not inline with the standard color code that every trailer under the sun uses. There should be a highlighted note saying that it's different from the normal color code or something. Had to rewire and heat shrink.



by:

I needed a 2nd, 7 blade trailer connector for my '15 Ford S.D. 350 Dually.
I wanted to keep the factory look, and this product matches perfectly. Wire harness & bracket were also purchased. ( due to a totally custom built Toy Hauler, more than 7 standard wires were needed for trailer ) .

  • Is the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket a Fit for Ford Trucks
    The 7-Pole and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Sockets w/ Mounting Bracket and Wiring # HM40975-11998 is a hard wire application, as you can see in the linked installation video we made of this being put on a 2008 Ford F-250. If you only need to connect the plug, which is 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket # HM40975, that is a direct replacement for many different years, makes and models of Ford trucks with a factory 7-way; for example it is a fit for a 2018 Ford F-150.

  • OEM Replacement Trailer Connector and Wiring Harness for a 2002 Chevy Silverado 2500HD
    The OEM replacement 7-way trailer connector for the 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD is the Pollak Twist-In, 7-Pole Trailer Connector, # PK11916. If you also need the wiring harness with the round connector, then you will want the Pollak Pigtail Wiring Harness, # PK11998. Unfortunately, this is not a simple plug-in style harness. You will have to splice this harness into the factory tow package wires at the back of the truck. I have attached an installation video of this harness on a 2002...

  • 7-Way Wiring Harness Installation on a 2004 1500 Chevrolet Silverado
    You can use the Pollak 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket, item # HM40975, if you are replacing an existing 7-way connector on the rear of your 2004 Chevy Pickup. If you need to install the 7-Way connector for the first time the factory connection point is going to be on the left side of the vehicle above the spare tire. If there is a plug on the end of the wiring harness located above the spare tire, it will simply plug into the rear of the HM40975. If the harness ends in bare wires,...

  • Installing a 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 2013 Ford E-250 Van
    I checked with Tow Ready about 7-Way connector # 118261 and it is not a confirmed fit for the 2013 Ford E-250 van. Since there are no other options and since you have some factory wiring already, I recommend using 4 and 7-Way connector # HM40975 with harness # PK11998. You will need to test the wiring on the vehicle end with a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 to determine the functions. Then you can install the harness accordingly: Red - Left Turn and Stop White - Ground Blue - Electric...

  • Installation of a 7-Way Connector On a 2010 Chevrolet Silverado With 7 Bare Wires and No Plug
    To get a 7-Way connector at the rear of your 2010 Chevrolet Silverado I would use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 and test the 7 bare wires for function. Then, use the Pollak 4 Foot Pigtail Wiring Harness, part # PK11998, to connect to the 7 bare wires by function using the included butt connectors. I would not connect them by colors because the colors will not always match the same function. After the wiring harness is attached correctly to your functioning bare wires on the vehicle...

  • Adding a Connector on a 2004 Chevy Express to Plug In Wiring Harness # 41155
    You could wire in harness # PK11998 to those factory wires on your 2004 Chevy Express. If you are only needing a 4-Way connector such as # 41155 then you would not use the blue, black, or yellow wires from PK11998 and can tape them up and tuck them out of the way. The wires on your van will need to be tested with a circuit tester such as # ALL640595 or a meter if you have one. You cannot go by wire color since there isn't exactly a standard that everyone goes by. On the PK11998 harness...

  • Parts Needed To Install A Brake Controller On A 2023 Freightliner Cascadia
    You do have the option to utilize the air brakes on your 2023 Freightliner Cascadia to control electric trailer brakes using the Hayes Air Actuated Trailer Brake Controller, part # HA100400C. However, we mostly recommend just using an electric brake controller since they tie into the stop light switch of the tow vehicle, making it irrelevant what kind of brakes it has. For an electric brake controller I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195. A very solid, user friendly brake controller....

  • Is Hopkins or Pollak Better for Trailer Connectors?
    Personally, I'm a much bigger fan of Pollak than I am of Hopkins. In my experience, I've had fewer issues with 7-way plug fitting loosely with Pollak brand 7-ways and Pollak is generally the "go-to" brand for most OEM truck setups.  The snag is there isn't a 4-way and 7-way Pollak branded trailer connector currently, but I have some good news. The Hopkins 7 and 4-Pole Trailer Connector, # HM40975, is actually made by Pollak, but sold by Hopkins. This is the same plug I have on my Silverado...

  • Parts Needed to Install Tow Bar Wiring on Vehicle Towed on Tow Dolly
    You'd need the tow bar diode wiring kit part # RM-152-1676-7 installed on your 2018 Honda Pilot Touring and then an additional 7-way socket wired into your motorhome wiring like with the # PK11998 and the socket # PK11893 and you'd be set. You'd need to use the harness to tap into the correct circuits of your 7-way wiring to do this.

  • What Mounting Bracket Fits the Pollak Replacement 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector
    A Pollack Trailer Connector like # PK11893, should fit in the 6 and 7-Way Trailer Connector Mounting Box, # 18159, without modifying either part. However, there have been some cases where mounting bracket holes did not line up quite right. In those cases, we usually recommend the Mounting Bracket for Pollak 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector, # PK12711U. The elongated holes are more universal than regular round holes. You can use the Pollak mounting bracket with No-Drill Mount Bracket,...

  • Best Heavy Duty Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500
    The Class V B&W trailer hitch # BWHDRH25217 would be a great option for your 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500. This hitch is rated for 16,000 pounds gross trailer weight and 1,600 pounds tongue weight. But the hitch would be limited to the towing capacity of the truck so you will want to check your owners manual for its capacity. I have included a link to a video showing installation of this hitch for you. If you also want to replace the factory 7-Way you can install # HM40975 which will provide...

  • Recommended Trailer Connector Wiring For 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500

  • Availability of U.S. Car Connector to Pigtail Wiring Harness and Compatible 7-Way
    Both the Hopkins Universal Wiring Harness # HM40985 and the Pollak Replacement Harness # PK11998 are 4-feet in length and provide a round U.S. Car type connector on one end and pigtail leads on the other. They are indeed interchangeable. I pulled one each of the two 7-way parts you referenced, parts # HM40940 and # PK11893, and measured their center-to-center mounting hole spacing. Part # HM40940 has 4 holes spaced 1-1/2-inches top to bottom and 2-1/4-inches side to side. Part # PK11893...

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring Harness For a 1995 Dodge Ram 2500
    I was unable to find much about the wires you located. That being said, you will need to test your plugs with something like # PTW2993. This will confirm which port is which function. As we do not have anything that will plug directly into your plugs, the # PK11893-11933 will need to be hardwired to get everything up an running. Due to this, it would be better to go with # PK11893 and # PK11998. This is specifically a hardwire kit so you wouldn't need to cut off the rectangular plug.

    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C14012 you looked at fits the cargo van and passenger wagon models of the 2020 Ford Transit T350. The extended high roof won't impact fitment so you will be able to use this hitch on your T350. This is a Class IV hitch with a bolt-on installation and a lifetime warranty. Since it sounds like you don't have a factory trailer connector you will either need the Curt # C56327 or if you have dual rear wheels the Tekonsha # 118722. Both of these plug into the...

The Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-, 5- and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector, # HM48470, can be used as well but it is a hardwire connector meaning you would have to attach existing wires from the truck to the connector according to the wiring diagram I have linked for you.

    The pins themselves aren't available separately. Your best course of action would be to replace your existing 7-way with one like the # PK11893 you mentioned. The pigtail, part # PK11998 would plug into the back of the replacement connector, and to activate the 12-volt power supply circuit, you'd need to run a length of 10 gauge wire # 10-1-1, which is sold by the foot from the black wire on the pigtail to the positive battery terminal with a 40 amp circuit breaker # 9510 installed inline.

  • Wiring Harness to Plug into the Back of a Pollak 7-Way Trailer Connector PA66GF30
    The Pollak # PK11998 wiring harness is the correct one that you would need. It plugs into the back of many different types of 7-Way trailer connectors so it isn't surprising that the one you have looks different than the ones we carry. As long as your connector has the round receptacle in the back to plug in a harness # PK11998 will work. I believe the one you have is the same as or similar to # PK11893.

  • The Pollak 7-Way Connector Doesn't Match The Wiring On My 2011 Chevy Silverado 1500
    The Pollak Replacement 7-Pole # PK11893 is intended as a factory replacement for a damaged OEM 7-Way, so it will utilize the standard snap in style design (pictured) found on Ford, Chevy, GMC and Nissan trucks and SUVs. With that said, I am not aware of any 7-Way connectors that use a twist lock style connection, so you may want to cut that side off and replace it with the 4' Pigtail Wiring Harness # PK11998. This uses the standard snap in style that the # PK11893 has and they will connect...

  • Replacement Pigtail for 7-way Trailer Connector on 2015 Audi Q7
    It sounds as if you need the pigtail that connects to the American spec 7-way, is that correct? If so, you'd need part # PK11998. It's also sold together with the # HM40975 connector as part # HM40975-11998. If you're speaking of the gray retaining clip, it is included with the # PK11998 pigtail, but it's not available as a separately sold item. The product description page for the # PK11998 pigtail provides the wire color coding if you scroll down the page I've linked for you a bit.

    Trailer connector # HM40975 that you purchased is meant as a replacement for a 2014 Porsche Cayenne that came with a factory 7-Way trailer connector. If yours did not then it will have to be hardwired in. The first part you will need is harness # PK11998 which plugs into the back of connector # HM40975. Next, you will need to install a wiring converter, # C59496, which hardwires into the tail light wiring on the vehicle. Then, after the # C59496 is installed you will cut off the 4-Way...
