Video Transcript for Hopkins Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring - Trailer Hitch Wiring - HM11141144 Review
Today we're going to be taking a look at part number HM11141144. This is the Hopkins, Multi-tow 7-Way Blade and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector. The product is going to fit certain years of a Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon with the factory tow harness. The 7-pole and 4-pole harness is going to let your plug your trailer wiring into your vehicle. You got the ports right here. Now on your vehicle it's actually going to be oriented like this.
There's going to be an oval-shape plug on your bumper near your license plate. You'll remove that and replace it with this. It's got the spring hinges back here so no hardware is required. It's just going to snap and place for a nice tight fit. But on top you'll have the area for your 4-Way Flat Connector and on the bottom you're going to have the area for the 7 Blade Connector. The pre-wire harness is going to connect to your truck's bare factory wiring.
Nice design. It's got the wire loom already on there so it's going to protect the wires. Then you're going to have your white wire for your ground connection. It's got the ring terminal pre-attached to it. It's going to come with all the necessary butt connectors. That way you can easily connect to the wires on the vehicle.
And it's going to come with the terminal grease packet. That way you can apply that to the terminals and that's going to prevent moisture being able to cause corrosion to the connection points. This is going to be made from an impact resistant ABS plastic construction. Here on the bottom of the lids we're going to have rubber gaskets. It's going to create a nice tight seal which is going to keep dirt and moisture out.
When it comes to the installation the vehicle harness is going to be located behind the rear bumper. You'll want to join the harness wires to the vehicles corresponding wires according to the chart that's located in the instructions. You want to be sure to locate the wires and pin location by function only. Don't rely 100 percent on color coding because that's not standard among all manufactures. So it's got the nice diagram there as well as the instructions. It's going to walk you through that process, making sure you get everything connected and hooked up as it should be. Then you'll need to make your ground connection. Then again you'll have to remove that oval plug on the vehicle and simply replace it with this part. These two pieces right here simply just lock in together. From the back of the vehicle this is going to be the only piece you're going to be able to see when it comes to the actual connector. No mounting hardware needed. Again, this is going to snap into the oval shaped hole and it's going to give you super easy access to your plugs. That's going to do it for today's look at part number HM11141144.

Connector worked well for my truck. I wish that the butt splices worked better but they seem to be the preferred method for attaching wires. All of the connections at the plug and at the attachment points for the trailer were well made. Glad to see stainless hinge construction 647446

This product was, as far as I can tell, an exacting replica of what is installed by the factory or dealer for a towing package on GMC truck. I installed it on my 2015 GMC Canyon following the wiring directions provided. No problems installing, easy to do with a crimper and 20 min. I have had one year without problems. Good stuff. 268726

Great kit. Only thing missing is the ground wire on the pigtail for my '16 GMC canyon was like a 10 gauge or something much larger than on this kit. 392114

Wired a 7/4 way to 2017 Colorado... quick AND easy!!! The colored wiring diagram was accurate..... The only problem I had was eventually figuring out the Pollak 12-741EV tester you sold me had to be plugged in with the test light indicators facing downwards. A hand held mirror placed under the plugged in 7 way tester did the trick, and BTW the 7/4 connector only installs one way: 7 pole round on top and 4 pole flat on the bottom. 855620

- 4- and 7-Way Trailer Connector Socket Only for a 2012 Ford F-150Trailer connector # HM11141144 is specific to certain GM applications so it would not be the same as the standard 4- and 7-Way. So you could use # HM40975 though it comes with a bracket. It does not come with a wiring harness.

Just like in the video I attached. If the voltage checks out there but the trailer lights still don't function right then the problem is on the trailer wiring. That would mean that problem is either due to a ground issue or a short issue. Make sure that the trailer side connector are...

This trailer connector is designed for GM vehicles and will not fit your Tacoma. In order to get both 4 and 7-way connection points on your truck you will need to use the Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness w Brake Controller Adapter part # 22117 and replace the 7-way plug in the kit with...

This wire simply needs to be attached to a clean, bare metal surface on the vehicle's frame. The white ground wire from the trailer side connector will also be attached a clean bare metal surface on the trailer frame.

You will just need to hardwire the connector into the 7-way on your vehicle.

- 7-Way/4-Way Kit for 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk Similar to Factory Wiring SetupI looked up the factory hitch and wiring kit for your 2019 Jeep Cherokee and the style of connector is the # HM11141144 which you could install on your vehicle but you'd want to use the 4-way kit part # 118779 as an easy way to get the trailer taillight functions first. This is custom fit for your vehicle and you could cut off the 4-way so that you could wire the harness to the 7-way and you'd be set.
view full answer... - Adding 4-Way to 2013 Chevy Silverado that Already has 7-Way Connector and Using Both at Same TimeFor your 2013 Chevy Silverado with 7-Way trailer connector I recommend adding 4-Way # 118384 which will Tee in line with the 7-Way wiring allowing you to have both a function 4-Way and 7-Way connector. Please keep in mind that you can use both at the same time but they are drawing power from the same source. If the amount of power draw is too much it could blow tow package fuses. We used to have an adapter that plugged into a 7-Way and had a 7-Way and 4-Way on the output side but...
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2020 Chevy ColordaoI recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98909 for your 2020 Chevy Colorado for a few reasons; it features a hidden crosstube so that only the receiver is visible and then it has a matte black finish which not only makes it look more durable than a glossy finish, but it also plays the part as it does a better job of covering up any dings from road debris. Since you will be using this for towing you also need the Wiring Kit # HM11141144 as well as a ball mount. For the ball...

It also offers a 800 lb tongue weight rating and a 8000 lb. gross trailer weight rating. The exception to that is if you plan on using weight distribution then the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76004 is the way to go. As far as wiring the Hopkins...

These wires will be taped to one another and most likely tucked under another bundle of wires. If you take a look at the install video on a similar 2017 Chevy Colorado you will be able to see the wires revealed at around the 3:45 mark. Please note if you don't...

With that being said, there are a few things to note; like how much weight you have in the pickup, if the 5,500 lbs for the trailer is GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) or if that's the dry weight, and that you'll need both a brake controller and a weight distribution system. I'm assuming you already...

The mounting location won't interfere with your bumper steps and the capacities of hitches are often stronger than the trucks they are mounted on simply because they are independently tested.

view full answer... - Brake Controller Recommendation and Installation 2019 Chevy ColoradoA brake controller isn't a vehicle specific item, just about any controller will work on just about any vehicle. There are two types of controllers, a time-delayed and a proportional. A time delayed controller will send the same amount of pre-set voltage to the trailer brakes according to how it's been set. Whether the braking event is a quick tap on the pedal or a panic stop, the controller will send the same amount of voltage to the brakes. A proportional controller will determine...

If it is anything like the 1999 models the yellow wire is the left turn and brakes, dark green wire is the right turn and brakes, brown wire is for the tail lights, and white is the ground. Often if the loom is cut back, two more wires will be found. The light blue wire provides a lead for a camper shell brake light so you would not need it. The other,...
