These connectors give you the functionality of a 7-way connection, but without any pins or blades to bend or break. They're designed to create a secure, watertight connection that lasts. Strong magnets in both the plug and the socket keep the connection tight and secure, even when you're driving on rough terrain. Built-in O-rings create a seal to keep out water and debris. And spring-loaded, face-to-face electrical contacts are long-lasting and easy to clean. These factors combine for a strong, durable connection that's easy to use and to maintain.
Magnetic Plugs Stay Connected
The EZ Connector system uses magnets inside the plug and socket to hold the connectors together. Simply insert the trailer-end plug into the vehicle-end socket and the internal magnets will snap them together, no latch needed. To disconnect, just pull the plug out by hand.
This is an improvement over typical trailer connectors, which rely on a plastic latch on the socket lid to hold the trailer plug in place. With any trailer connector it can be easy to forget to disconnect the wiring when you unhook your trailer. If you drive off without disconnecting a standard 7-way plug, the connector will get pulled out of the socket, likely tearing off the lid. Without a lid, the electrical terminals are exposed to damaging moisture and debris. But if you forget to remove the EZ Connector plug when unhooking your trailer, the plug will simply disconnect from the receptacle as you drive off.
The magnets inside of these trailer connectors are made of neodymium, an extra-strong, rare-earth alloy. These high-quality magnets ensure a tight connection between the connectors that is stable enough to make it through intense bumps and road vibration.
Silicon O-Rings Create Watertight Seal
The EZ Connector trailer-end plug has a double O-ring that will create a seal with the socket when it's inserted into the vehicle-end connector.
Once you disconnect your trailer from your vehicle, just insert the included dummy plug into the EZ Connector socket. This plug also has a double O-ring designed to seal to the socket.
A storage holder is included to keep the trailer-end EZ Connector plug safe and dry when it's not in use. This holder conveniently attaches to your trailer so that it is always available when you need it. This ensures that the terminals on the plug and socket stay protected from moisture and debris at all times.
All of the EZ Connector systems have earned a perfect score on the SAE water submersion test. This means that the seal created on these connectors will stay watertight, even if the connectors are completely submerged in water for extended periods of time.
No Pins or Blades to Bend or Break
The EZ Connector plug and socket both have spring-loaded, face-to-face electrical contacts instead of pins or blades. Pins and blades can bend, corrode, and even break off, which can lead to a permanently damaged connection. With the EZ Connector system, there are no pins or blades to bend or break. Because there are no pins or blades, there are also no pin sockets on the trailer-end plug that can trap debris. And if any dirt or debris does collect on the terminals of either end of an EZ Connector setup, it can be quickly and easily wiped away. No more scraping pins to get grime off. The result of all of this is a quality, effective connection every time you plug in.

The EZ Connector is by far better than the OEM 7 blade connector. I was having connection and corrosion issues with the original connector but after installing the EZ Connector I am not experiencing any issues. It works flawlessly. I did have to source some local hardware to complete the installation.

I am very pleased with my purchase. I don’t know why I someone didn’t invent this along time ago.

been using this product for 7 months in Alaska rough dirt roads, ice, snow, rain. and this is the first time I have had no issues with my trailer electrical vibrating and coming loose or corroded connections. I tell everyone that i see about these and I can not believe more people don't know about these up here!!!

This worked on my 2018 Toyota Tundra. No more problems with my trailer connector coming loose.

Love this connector. It is very high quality and comes complete with weather tight covers for both the trailer pig tail and the connector on the truck. Watch etrailers install video, it installs in minutes and let's you keep your factory 7 pin connector and 4 pin connector. I installed in on a RAM 2500 for use on my boat trailer since I installed a new Dexter electric/ hydraulic disc brake actuator. Also, don't get your finger caught between the cable end and the trailer frame...the magnet will do some damage to your finger tip. The magnets are very powerful. Again high quality product and I will buy again for future trailers. Thank you etrailer.

- Does The EZ Connector Work On The 2017 Ford F-350?Hello Tim. So, the EZ Connector Magnetic 7-Way Trailer Connectors # 319-R7-02 are designed to be universal. It will work on virtually any vehicle with that uses the standard USCAR connectors for its trailer wiring. Did your 2017 F-350 come from the factory with a 7-way plug? If so, it will have the USCAR connectors and the 319-R7-02 will work great. If your 7-way is aftermarket, you would have to splice in the EZ Connector using the # 319-R7-01 kit.

- Troubleshooting Trailer Disconnect Message When Pulling Toy Hauler Behind 2020 Ram 2500With issues like that it could be a number of things which is causing your 2020 Ram 2500 to show up the trailer is disconnected.

- Pop up trailer brake light and turn signal on right side not workingI recommend checking the fuses under your dash. Some vehicles will have separate fuses for each function. My uncle had the same issue. I advised him to check the fuses first and he determined that he had a fuse blown. If your fuses are not the issue then check your 7 pole plug on the back of your Tacoma again. Have someone run through all the functions and test each one. You may be getting power to the plug but each function is going to be separate. If your determine that some of your functions...
