Video Transcript for Hopkins Wiring - Trailer Connectors - HM40950 Review
Today we're going to review part number HM40950. This is the Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector for the Vehicle End. Now this trailer connector will serve as a replacement for a damaged socket on a vehicle or it also can be added to a vehicle that has a factory tow package, but doesn't have the connector on it. Now it is designed for vehicles that already have the 7-way tow package on it because it's made to plug into the harness on the vehicle. It is a simple plug in installation. You just insert this into that harness on your tow package port. There's no cutting or splicing of wires, no tools needed.
Does give you a nice 7-way connection and at the very bottom, also a 4-way connection. Both, and we could see, have caps to protect them when they're not being used. This is made of a nice ABS plastic. Gives you enhanced weatherproofing, has internal seals, both the cap there and also this protection, and they use corrosion resistant terminals. The lid itself keeps out dirt and moisture. If you noticed the over-sized hinge right up here, allows the lid to open 180 degrees or more.
It gives you a nice single connection point. Now it does come with the bolts and the nuts for installing this onto your vehicle. If you have a place to install it already or a bracket, you can bolt it right onto that. If not, we do sell mounting brackets separately on our website. Also comes with 2 packs of dielectric grease. Which anytime you make an electrical connection ...

Quickly and easily replace a damaged 7-way RV-style trailer connector, or add a new one to your vehicle with a factory tow package. This heavy-duty trailer connector socket has an outlet for 7-way and 4-way flat plugs. Easy-open, weatherproof lids.by: David08/17/2022
I like the dual (4-pin + 7-pin) outlet, but the mounting hole do not align with the Tacoma bracket. Additionally, the "simply plug in using existing vehicle wiring" isn't quite accurate either. The plug on the vehicle wiring does not match-uo color-wise with your connector. To get the lights to work properly, I had to cut the wires and attach them to each respective post on the connector
by: Cliff Jordan06/18/2017
Product has worked well. I like the way the cover opens really wide so it's easy to line up the plug.
I installed it on my F-350 on a Ranch Hand rear bumber. The four screw holes holes ranch hand drilled for the screws where slightly off from the holes in your product so I had to rotate connector CCW and drill and tap four new holes.

Before I even get home to get my mail "Carol C" is already begging for praise. If you have to fish for reviews, i wonder if i should just return your junk

Works just fine. No problems at all. Fits and works without incident.
by: Phillip04/17/2019
Works fine and seems to be made well. Only issue is that the connector screw mounting holes do not match up to the OEM mounting bracket holes and requires drilling of the OEM mounting bracket to mount this connector.
by: Kurt10/21/2019
I have a 1999 (early) Ford F250 Super Duty with both the RV 7 way plus the trailer 4 way plugs. I used item # 118243 to connect to the truck square plug, & then part # HM 40950 which has the 7 and 4 way connector. It was a perfect fit and install was easy.
by: Jr11/07/2021
Bought the wiring harness that goes with just the 7 pin but swapped in this head to give myself added operability. Works well. Haven't had the occasional to confirm that both connections work at the same time but the q&a said they would
by: Al B08/09/2017
Very happy with my choice of this brake controller. Full of features that make it worth the price. I especially like the ability to store 3 different trailer settings. This makes it easy to use when you tow several different trailers without having to manually change the brake settings.

works great. great service
by: Michael N04/09/2018
I installed this on a 2016 Ford Interceptor Utility PPV (police pursuit vehicle). The only challenge was modifying the mounting location on the factory hitch assembly to accommodate the larger housing. It works well as I used it the day I installed it, to tow a rental utility trailer and it worked perfectly.
by: Axel Schlumberger08/03/2017
Holes for mounting to factory bracket did not align so I had to keep in place with zip ties.
by: Tim L.06/03/2018
Fits perfectly, however there are no fasteners for mounting included.

Not much to say so far so good

Good product for a good price! Product was exactly a shown. I have made quite a few purchases from ETrailer and will continue buying from them in the future.

No Problems. Works well.
by: Thomas06/01/2019
Product is well made, but did not fit like I was led to believe it would. Had to modify the mount on the truck, but it was not too difficult. Someone without a shop would have a problem, fortunately I have a well equipped shop and the know how to modify just about anything put to me. But the part works well just like designed, really happy with the way it looks and all as well.

- Need New Connector Without Pigtail to Replace 7-Way and 4-Way on My 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 ClassicI spoke with my contact at Hopkins and the 7 Blade and 4 Flat OEM Replacement Connector Socket, # HM40950, will work for your 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic and eliminate the pigtail.
view full answer... - Can the 7-way and 4-Pole on the Hopkins HM40950 Be Used at the Same TimeYou can indeed. Both the 7-way and 4 pole connectors are capable of being used simultaneously. I've linked you to a product demonstration video featuring the Hopkins # HM40950 7-way/4-pole connector.
view full answer... - Is Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector DurableI have attached a photo of part # HM40950 you can check out. As you can see in the photo the arrows are pointing to the hinges used on the connector are more heavy-duty than the strap and hinge on the 40955 you currently have. We have not had customers complain about the durability of this connector and it should work well for you.

- Comparing Hopkins and Pollak 4 and 7-Way Trailer ConnectorsIn regards to Pollak and Hopkins, they are both great options. That said, if OEM parts give you any indication of quality then Pollak would be the better choice as they are the OEM for most manufacturer in regards to trailer connectors. Personally, I've had less issues with plug fitment when using the Pollak brand. If you're looking for both a 4 and 7-way connector, I recommend the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket w/ Mounting Bracket part # HM40975 which also comes with a mounting...

The factory harness will plug into the back of this connector. It is the closest match to the OEM connector that we have available. I have included a link to a video review for you.
view full answer... - Installing Both a 7-Way and 5-Way Trailer Connector on a 2019 Volkswagen AtlasThe only 7- and 5-way connector we have combined into one is part # HM48470. it isn't a plug and play option though. It needs to have the blunt wires connected one by one so if you have a 7-way already you'll need to cut it off and wire this one on instead.
view full answer... - Could 7-Way of 7-Way Nissan Replacement 118267 Get Replaced with 7-Way/4-WayYes, the 7-way of the Replacement Wiring Harness for Tow Ready Nissan Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118267 uses the standard 7-way round connector so you could swap it out to one that has a 4-way and a 7-way if you wanted like with the # HM40950 if you wanted to.

view full answer... - Adding a 4- and 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 2002 Ford F-150The part you referenced, 13A576-GB, is a Ford part. What you can do is use # 118242 and add # HM40950 which is a 4- and 7-Way in place of the 7-Way that comes with # 118242. I have linked videos on both parts for you. The Ford part is twice as much and you might still have to purchase from them the relays and fuses that are already included with # 118242.

If you can pull the wiring harness off of the back of it and it looks like # HM40950 on the inside where that harness plugs in then you can just swap out your 7-Way with # HM40950. I have included a picture showing the back, inside of connector # HM40950. Otherwise you would have to use # 118266 and replace the 7-Way with # HM40950.

This will give you both a 7-way and 4-way trailer connectors in the bed of your 2012 Dodge Ram 3500. I've attached a video of the wiring harness being installed into a 2011 Dodge Ram that you might like to take a look at.

view full answer... - Are All Brands of 7-Ways Equal or Are There Better OptionsI wouldn't say any of the 7-way trailer manufacturers that we sell offer a 7-way that is noticeably nicer than the other brands. I've heard people complain about Hopkins brake controllers and other more advanced electronics but I have a Hopkins 7-way/4-way on my Tahoe part # HM40920 and it's been perfectly reliable and works great. This is a twist lock for GM vehicle bumpers. We also have a more standard fit part # HM40950 which fits the standard brackets.
view full answer... - 2006 Nissan Pathfinder LE 7-Way Trailer Wiring RecommendationWe have a 7-way that fits your 2006 Nissan Pathfinder but it is not the Hopkins kit that you mentioned. Instead you'd want the part # 118281 which is a confirmed fit and would work well. If you are looking for a 7 and 4-way that you could replace the 7-way of the # 118281 with you could use the part # HM40950.
view full answer... - 7-Way Trailer Wiring Replacement that Has a 7-Way and 4-Way ConnectorWe have the Hopkins Endurance 7-way/4-way part # HM40950 that I believe is the adapter you are looking for. This will replace the 7-way you have and give you a 7-way that has a 4-way connector below it. I have this on my Tahoe and it works really well. If you want you can send me your pictures but this plugs into the standard 7-way connector that your vehicle most likely has to give you both connectors.
view full answer... - Comparing the Hopkins 7-way part # HM40950 and Pollak Replacement 7-Pole # PK11893 The Hopkins 7-way part # HM40950 that you referenced is designed to fit the same mounting bracket as the # PK11893 that you also referenced. I'd go with the part # HM40950 though as it has a 4-way connector below the 7-way.

The bolt hole pattern is compatible with aftermarket mounting brackets, but not necessarily with OEM brackets or existing holes in bumpers. The connector is designed to plug into the existing US Car connector under the vehicle, which is wired at the factory.
