Great product so far. The material is flexible rubber not cheap plastic ! The cover has just enough stretch for a good seal yet not so stiff that it’s a fight to work with. Thanks for carrying such a good quality and important product.
by:
Installed immediately as the rain keeps coming this year. The snug fit did not stop the water from getting in. I assume the heat causes some expansion letting in water when it rains and the 7-way is hanging down. I store the 7-way upright now to solve the problem. Disappointing but not totally useless. Was pretty cheap so I made it work.
by:
Unfortunately, It didn’t fit. The opening was larger than the cap. I even warmed it in hot water to make it stretch more and it just would not make it. Disappointed.
by:
I think this plug cover will work to keep whether out win not in use.

This is my second tethered cover. The original, identical one I purchased from etrailer had the tether ring break upon installation. It was a little disappointing but it still functioned and I had intended to keep it. However, the folks at etrailer sent a follow up email after my delivery and inquired about my order experience. I replied that the tether ring broke at install but I was going to just go with it as is. I am happy to report that etrailer sent me a new cover immediately after my reply. I am pleased with their customer focus and because of that I will be a return customer!

It's a nice design and works as it should.
by:
A good cover for the 7-blade connector on the 5th wheel trailer, to keep moisture from oxidizing the contacts, since it is still exposed to dampness when the cable is stored in the pin box.

After reading a review online where the writer claimed the loop broke when he went to stretch it over the plug I was apprehensive about what I was ordering. After watching a video of a woman effortlessly attaching the cover to a plug I was less apprehensive. After watching the video I really wasn't surprised at how easily the cover installed. I had no problem stretching the loop on and over the cover stop of the plug. No more do I have to wrap the end in electrical tape to keep moisture out.

Perfect product to protect the end of my trailer electrical connection. Excellent description of the product and fast delivery.

Perfect fit for my trailer wiring harness. Adds a good level of protection when in storage.

Good product fast delivery
by:
I opened the package and the tether cord was broken. I reached out to them twice and got ghosted. Work order again.
by:
the fit was snug, which is exactly what you want from this product. There is an indentation for the notch at the bottom, which is a nice touch.
On the diagram, you notice that the retaining ring is in front of the two (2) ears of the plug. I found it was more secure and out of the way when strapped behind the ears.
Great product!
by:
This is a nice little cover. It's surprising how a simple rubber thing like this can prevent a lot of frustration and work at cleaning all the connectors in the trailer plug after it's been outside with little protection all winter. I have no idea why I never bought one of these before...

I just started de-winterizing my toy hauler after a long, brutal winter. The cap is still there, fully intact, and the inside is dry.

by:
Product is great. However, the holding ring broke apart trying to stretch it on the electric trailer cord. It’s a little small. I rigged the cover with some zippy ties to the cord so it wouldnt get lost. Great product.

Great

Installs easily. Fits perfectly on the 7 blade connector. I see no reason to be concerned about breaking the retainer ring during installation. Just be gentle and patient. Great product!!

So, I’ve been using this connector cap for a year. First time I returned to the trailer at the storage yard, there was water in it, which meant the connector was swimming in water for a month. Well, after that, when storing the trailer, I arrange the connector and wire, so that rain will not go in and stay. It’s a cover, but not water tight. I’ll keep using it, though. Better than any alternative.

by:
I have always been concerned about the electrical connector being exposed to the weather and I hope that this will work. Long-term use will confirm its ability to stand up to useage and weather but so far - so good.

It hasnt deteriorated at all. I stilk have to point the connector up to keep out rain but at least the connections are protected.

by:
The Fastway 7-Way connector cover is the right idea that just needs to be executed much better. The tether is almost completely useless, as it will always break either during installation or shortly thereafter, or if anything more than a gentle tug is applied. I found that a plastic wire-tie was the best product to keep the cover tethered to the trailer or cable. It does seal reasonably well as long as you align the index tab on the connector properly and keep the cover pointing toward the sky. It is better than using nothing.
by:
majorly big piece of crap. doesn't seal tight and when you let it hang under the plug while cable is plugged in the wind under the vehicle rips the cap off of the teather so it's gone for good. unless the plug is suspended somehow with the cover up water will run down cable and enter back of plug and cap then holds this water inside the connector and corrodes the terminals.

you used to carry a GREAT cover but discontinued it. it worked on a 7 way travel trailer plug as well as a 7 way Berg connector. What a shame.
by:
RV Mat was very useful on our cross country trip, some sites were very sandy/dusty.
Tire covers not difficult to put on and take off
Connector Cover is helpful to keep contacts clean, particularly when it rained, the holder around cable broke after several uses, I stored the cover in my door pocket, a little inconvenient
by:
I bought this to keep water out of my trailer plug. When I went to hitch up the trailer a few days after a rain, I found the plug full of water. I tossed this cap and continued my previous practice of making sure the plug was oriented down when not in use. No further problems with rain water. Very disappointing since everything else I’ve purchased from E Trailer over the years has been exactly as advertised and has preformed well.

Do you have a question about this Accessories and Part?
  • Is There a Cover Available for a 7-Way Trailer Connector?
    Hi Michael! Yes, if you're talking about the trailer side 7 way plug, we do carry the Fastway Tethered 7 Way Trailer Connector Cover, Part # FA82-00-3315. It slips over the male 7 way plug to help protect the terminals from dirt and debris when the trailer isn't connected. One tip is to avoid leaving the covered plug hanging with the opening facing down, since water can collect inside the cover and sit against the terminals. If you're asking about a cover or replacement door for the...

  • Looking for Cap/Cover for Trailer Side 7-Way
    Hey Pjd, we have the Fastway Tethered 7-Way Trailer Connector Cover with Tether # FA82-00-3315 that is designed to cover the male end of a trailer side 7-way like you asked about. I would just make sure not to let the 7-way point down with the cover on as potentially water could get into the cover which then would hold it against the metal pins of the connector.

  • Looking For Protective Cover For 7-Way Power Cord
    Hello Paul, thanks for getting in touch. We do offer a protective cover for a 7-way trailer cord. For that I recommend the Fastway Tethered 7-Way Trailer Connector Cover with Tether # FA82-00-3315. Using one of these along with a bit of Dielectric Grease # 11755 on your connections it will help a lot to extend the life of your 7-way.

  • Storage Covers For 7-Way Blade Trailer Connector To Protect against Corrosion
    I do have a couple options for you to consider. The first is the Fastway Tethered 7-Way Trailer Connector Cover # FA82-00-3315. This is a rubber cover that tethers to the 7-way that you can use to cover the end of the connector. Next is the Optronics 7-Way Trailer Harness Plug Protector # ACP7B. This mounts to your trailer and allows you to push the 7-way into the protector. This has the added benefit of holding the connector in a specific place when not in use. I do recommend using...

  • Is There A Cover For The 6-Pole Square Trailer Connectors
    I do have an option for you but there is not a trailer plug cover available for the 6-Pole Square Trailer Wiring Connector Kit part # 37995. If this is what you will be using then you can just glob part # 11755 on the pins as that would then do a pretty good job of keeping them protected or you can buy two sets and use the opposite as a cover once you cut the wires. If you want something with an actual cover you will need to use 7-way trailer connectors which are much more common than...

  • Needing a 7 - Way Trailer Plug Cover for Protection
    We have a cover that will help protect the pin connections on your trailer end 7-way plug. The Fastway Tethered 7-Way Trailer Cover, # FA82-00-3315, will fit on the end of your 7-way trailer side plug and protect the plug end from dirt ant contaminates. For added protection, I recommend using a dialectic grease, like # LT37534. Dialectic grease will protect from water contamination and also help prevent electrical failure between your vehicle and your trailer.

  • What Can be Used to Clean and Protect Trailer 7-Way
    Sandpaper or a wire brush typically works the best to clean the pins of a 7-way to allow it to make contact like needed. To protect it when not in use we do have 7-way caps like the part # FA82-00-3315 that would work great for you.

  • Availability of a Cover to Protect the Trailer 7-Way Plug From Weather and Other Elements
    I have found a solution for you. The Fastway Tethered 7-Way Cover, # FA82-00-3315 will tether to your 7-way trailer plug and has a rubber cap that will fit over the plug end. The cap will keep dirt and other contaminates out of the 7-way. I also recommend using # LT37534 dielectric grease with this cap. Applying dielectric grease to the plug's pins will add extra protection from moister and dirt getting into the plug's pins.

  • 7 Blade RV Plug Maintenance and Weather Protection
    The great thing about a lot of the 7 way connectors on vehicles like the Pollak # PK12-707E is that they come with a built in cover that helps keep most of what you're concerned about away from the plug, so applying some dielectric grease like the # 11755 after every use is a usually sufficient to keep moisture off the contacts and free from corrosion. You shouldn't need to worry about it attracting grime or anything since it will be covered, but it might be worth cleaning it out every...

  • Cover for 7-Way Connector in Roadmaster Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit
    To cover the 7-Way connector that comes with the Flexo-Coil Kit # RM-146-7 I recommend the Fastway # FA82-00-3315 because it has a tether that keeps it attached to the 7-Way. You can potentially use this for the 6-Way as well but it'll be bigger so you'll have to use a rubber band or something of that nature to secure it - unfortunately we don't have a cover for a 6-Way plug. The diameter of that 6-Way connector is going to be about 1" which is the industry standard. Since we don't have...

  • Cover for 7-Way Trailer Connector to Protect From the Elements
    We do have a 7-way cover # FA82-00-3315 that you can use to protect yours. You can also add some dielectric grease # 11755 to it to help prevent corrosion.

  • Trailer Jack and 7-Way Cover for Jack on Travel Trailer
    We have a couple jack covers that were designed for electric a-frame jacks like it sounds like you might have. We have the Ultra-Fab cover # UF38-944020 is 12" x 14-1/2". Ultra-Fab also has # UF38-944026 which is 14-1/2" x 15-1/2". Then for a cover for the 7-way you could use the part # FA82-00-3315.

  • Will Fastway 7-Way Trailer Connector Cover Fit a Tractor Trailer Connector
    The Fastway 7-Way Trailer Connector Cover # FA82-00-3315 is designed to fit a standard 7-way trailer connector. The inner diameter measures about 1.57 inches which is a little larger than 1-9/16 inches.

  • What is the Inner Diameter of Fastway Tethered 7-Way Trailer Connector Cover # FA82-00-3315
    I went out to the warehouse and pulled Fastway Tethered 7-Way Trailer Connector Cover # FA82-00-3315 to measure it for you. The inside diameter is approximately 1.57 inches in diameter which is just a hair over 1-9/16 inches. It is not the easiest to measure since it is pliable rubber which is why the measurement is approximate. It fits over a standard trailer side 7-Way connector like # PK12706.

  • Availability Of Cover For Trailer 7-way Connector To Keep Water and Debris Out
    We sure do! You will need the Fastway Tethered 7-Way Trailer Connector Cover with Tether # FA82-00-3315 which will slide over the open end of your trailer's 7-way connector and will keep out dirt and other debris. The cover itself is weather resistant and adding some di-electric grease # 11755 to the connector pins will create a great barrier for water getting into the connector. I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
