Hi, this is Scott with etrailer. Today, we're taking a look at and installing our Mighty Cord 7-Way In-Bed Wiring on our 2024 Ram 2500. Our 7-way plug we have in the bed of our Ram today is a good option for people that are looking to do a lot of towing with either a 5th wheel or a gooseneck. This is gonna allow you to keep your cord in the bed of your truck and not drooping over the back of your tailgate, which I see a lot of times, and people end up with a bunch of scratches on their tailgate. So this really eliminates that. It's also gonna be really accessible, which is nice.
And it's gonna have a little spring lid here. And all you're gonna do is just put in your cord, and this little cap itself is gonna have this tab comes down, and that's gonna hold your plug in, so it's not gonna accidentally pull out while you're pulling your trailer down the road. One of the best things about this is, is how easy it is to install. All you're gonna do is just plug in to your factory wiring harness that you have there. You're gonna have a couple different plugs there and it'll plug in the back of this one.
And you're gonna get all your hardware with it to get this installed, so it's really not too bad at all. Now, if you have any questions or comments about this 7-way plug for the inside of the bed of your Ram, you can always leave a question or comment down below in the comments section, or you can get ahold of one of our experts here at etrailer, they'd be glad to help you out. As far as installation goes, this is really straightforward and definitely something you could do yourself, it's really not too bad to do. But if it's something you don't have time to do yourself, you can always take a look at our dealer locator and get something done for you locally. If it's something you feel like tackling yourself, stick around, watch our video, and we'll help you get it installed.
To start our installation, we're gonna have our 7-way plug, and we wanna find a good, suitable place for this to go. Now, I'm gonna go with this one right around in this area here. Now, when you're trying to figure this out, it's always a good idea after you figure out where you want it to go up here in the bed to get underneath there and make sure you don't have any wire harnesses or lines or anything behind here that you're gonna hit when you go through this with your hole saw. Now, after I have that done, I gotta decide where I want that to go. Now, I'm just gonna come back with my two inch hole saw, and I'm gonna go ahead and start making our hole.
All I'm gonna do is get that started. (hand drill buzzing) Now, we have our pilot hole started, we'll just come back through with our hole saw, and we'll start making our hole. (hand drill buzzing) And once you start getting through here, you don't wanna put on too much force where you're gonna go through and bump the outside of the body. So just be careful when you're starting to get through this. (hand drill buzzing) With our hole cut out, I like to come back with a file and just clean up any sharp edges we have in here. Then I'll come back through with a paint pen, and I'll cover up this, so we don't get any rust. (file clanking) Now, I like to take my line that has the two ends, and we'll go ahead and get that pushed down through our hole. (truck bed wall clunking) This part can be a little tricky, because our connectors are close together. So just take your time, and you'll get them through there. Now, we've finally got it in, and I may recommend the next time we do one of these to maybe go a little bit bigger, 'cause this is really tight getting these to go through here. But now that I have it, I'll just feed that down, run my cord all the way down. (cord rustling) Now, I'll take my 7-way plug, and I'll get that plug into my cord itself. Gonna have a good, audible click. Give a little tug, make sure we have a good connection. I will run that in through our hole as well. (plug clunking) Now, we can get our plug orientated where we want that. Now, I'll come back through with my self-tapping screws, and we'll just get those run in, and that'll keep our plug put in place. (hand drill buzzing) We have one in place that's gonna hold our plug where we want it. Now, I'm just gonna come back through. And before I run the rest in, I wanna make sure it's nice and level and where I want it. And it is, so now, we'll just go through and get the rest of them in place. (hand drill buzzing) (truck bed wall clanking) Underneath of our truck, you can see where our plug comes out of our bed. Now, it comes down, we have our wire. I looped it up over the frame and then pulled it over towards our spare. I'll end up coming back through and tying off all my wires after I get everything installed. But I'm just gonna continue bringing this across, and we're gonna tie off to a bunch of stuff that's right here behind our bumper. And right here, we're gonna have our plug, this is where we're gonna plug into. What we wanna do is we're gonna have this little tab on our plug that's on our truck, we just wanna push in that tab and pop out our plug. These can be pretty tricky, they'll get dust and dirt built up in them. You'll just kinda wiggle that around. Now, I did end up having some debris built up in the back of my little clip here, so I just tapped that and got that out there. Now, I can push that in, just wiggle it around, pull that out. And as you can see, we're gonna have a bunch of stuff come out of that. And we do have some debris built up in there, so you wanna clean all that out the best you can, that way, you have a good, clean mounting surface. On the ends of our plugs on our wiring harness, I like to take a little bit of dielectric grease. What this is gonna do for us is gonna help seal up our connections and keep moisture out of there, so we don't get a bunch of corrosion happening. I kinda go around the edges of it a little bit too, that'll kinda help lubricate it to get our plug put in place. I'll do that on both of these, just get some on these pins. (wind whooshing) Now, what we wanna do, is from our factory harness we have here, we're gonna find our male end and our female ends. We're gonna have our ends here, these are gonna match up. So we'll just take our end, we're gonna plug it into our factory harness. Click those together. Make sure you get a good, solid click. Give it a pull, make sure you have a good connection. Now, we'll do the same where it goes to the back of our plug into our bumper. Just wanna line up our tabs. (plugs clicking) You may have to wrestle these around a little bit just to get them to go where you need them to go. (plugs clicking) (metal clanking) Sometimes, you gotta twist them pretty good, because we want this open end to line up with this end. Let's get that maneuvered into position, and we'll click that in place. Again, you'll have a good, audible click. Give a little tug, make sure you have a good connection. Now, I'll come back through and hang up all my wires. Now, you can see here where I went ahead and tied off. All I did is just pull the slack out over here in the fender well and just ran this across, tying off as we come out over our frame. You can see here, all I did is just loop it over and just got it all supported up here with some wire ties and just got that all up out of the way. Now, I have a tester put in. One way you can check yours is just plug your trailer into this and just see if it works. But I have a tester, so we'll go ahead and go through all of our signals and make sure everything's working. All right, now, with our tester in place, we'll go ahead and check out all of our signals. I'm gonna go ahead and do my lights on. And those are working. Now, we'll do our left turn. We'll do our right turn. And we'll do our brakes. And our tester is showing that all of our lights and signals are working. With everything working, that will do it for our installation and our look at our Mighty Cord In-Bed Wiring on our 2024 Ram 2500. I'm Scott with etrailer, and thanks for watching.
