Excellent product

great product!!!



by:

Qaulaity looks good and plan to install it soon.



by:

Wire colors were the same as my Ford but had different jobs, but quality is second to none.



by:

Best price on the web. OEM replacement fit perfectly. Much better quality than the replacement available at the local Walmart.



by:

Prompt service, good communication and fast shipping.
Thxs!



by:

Great quality!I bought this product for future (1 month) installation in an used van that I purchased. I received the product in a fantastically short period of time. I am very impressed with the quality of the workmanship and materials.



by:

The part was delivered on the promised date. The web site provided plenty of information for easy installation making for a smooth transaction. I would definitely purchase other products from etrailer.com.



by:

Very good quality, prompt delivery best pricing by far ( we did a lot of web research before placing the orders). Will do business again and recommend your web site to my friends and co-workers.Thank you, e-trailer team for a job well done. Keep up the good work.



by:

Easy, easy, easy! Simply use the supplied crimp connectors to color match the wires, plug into your trailer connector and your done! Your done.



by:

Worked perfectly. I was able to make this a permanent fixture to my truck. I would suggest soldering and sealing the connections rather than the crimp connectors that come with it to prevent corrosion problems later on down the road.



by:

PerfectI resently purchased a new 4x4 and the truck game without a tow hitch ,so I bought one from the dealer and it came without the trailer plug so when I asked them how long do I have to wait for one they told me it was on a nationwide backlog so I went online looking at a few web sites but didn't see what I liked .I went crazy searching for this product until I log on to yours. I found everthing I needed and your prices where better than other venders ,And your shipping was on the money and didn't have to wait long . I would recomment your website to all my friends.



by:

This harness plugs right into the factory 7 pin plug that comes with the factory hitch and works perfectly to replace a worn factory plug.My ground wire pin had become loose in the plug and had my trailer lights working intermittently .GM also sells a repair plug but it is over $100.00 and comes with the 7 pin plug and a four pin connector which I didn't need.Just be sure to connect one wire at a time as the color of some wires do not match.I started with the white wire and worked my way around the plug and it works perfect.Thanks for a good product at a great price!



by:

New wiring harness and receptable work great. Installed in the rear of my truck bed for connecting my 5th wheel trailer...so much easier than running the RV cable over the tailgate to the 7-pin connector by receiver hitch. Thanks...



by:

I received everything in short order.
The
instructions from the website gave great detail.

The only thing I would add would be to measure the distance between the

tabs on the original hitch and make the same on the new one by

bending/taping them.



by:

Used this product in conjunction with pollak #pk11893 to upgrade my 95' ford E-350 wireing under the rear bumper to more readily available standard parts. I have had a few orders over the years from etrailer, always a pleasure to deal with.

Looks good!

Decent quality. Functions as designed.



by:

Pigtail worked as expected with mating rv 7 blade socket. Easy for replacement of existing parts.



by:

A lot of help. People know what there doing. Some of them



by:

The Pigtail assembly that I received was wired incorrectly. Normal seven pin color coding was not followed. The Yellow wire (normally left turn/stop light), was wired into the backup light center pin, the red wire (normally +12 volt supply), was wired into the left turn/stop pin, and the black wire (normally backup lights), was wired to the +12 volt supply pin. Good quality wire and correct gauge, probably just a supplier / quality control issue.

Theres more than one accepted wiring convention for a 7-way trailer connector, which is why we list the wire color code on the product description page on our website.



by:

Just received the wire pigtail today. Had ordered the 7 pin plug thinking I wouldn't need the pigtail. Save yourself some time and get them both. It's cheaper in the long run. Good product.

I completely rewired my trailer about a year ago using all of your wiring and lights. Everything works great. Thanks.



by:

The color code is all wrong with this harness. After I wired all the colors together, I tested my trailer lights and the left side didn't work. After researching on the etrailer site I come to find out this thing is not inline with the standard color code that every trailer under the sun uses. There should be a highlighted note saying that it's different from the normal color code or something. Had to rewire and heat shrink.



by:

I needed a 2nd, 7 blade trailer connector for my '15 Ford S.D. 350 Dually.
I wanted to keep the factory look, and this product matches perfectly. Wire harness & bracket were also purchased. ( due to a totally custom built Toy Hauler, more than 7 standard wires were needed for trailer ) .



by:

I bought this because my 2011 Silverado factory 7 way connection was acting poorly. I had to cut off the wire harness end and splice this on, I used heat shrink solder connectors then replaced the seven way. Now the voltage to the trailers brakes is at max with no more intermittent issues, this looks well made



by:

E-trailer has always been fast, responsive, and helpful on many of my orders. Used this to replace a broken truck side connector on my 2012 F250. It's exactly the same as the factory plug. The wire harness on the 2012 is over 300 from Ford on the late model 2011 and up F250. Instead you can cut and splice this connector. The wires are a different color but you can see the numbers on the factory and new connector and match them up. I did decide to solder and shrink wrap my wires but the kit comes with butt connectors. Good quality part no different then OEM and fits well on the existing 7pin putco connector.

  • OEM Replacement Trailer Connector and Wiring Harness for a 2002 Chevy Silverado 2500HD
    The OEM replacement 7-way trailer connector for the 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD is the Pollak Twist-In, 7-Pole Trailer Connector, # PK11916. If you also need the wiring harness with the round connector, then you will want the Pollak Pigtail Wiring Harness, # PK11998. Unfortunately, this is not a simple plug-in style harness. You will have to splice this harness into the factory tow package wires at the back of the truck. I have attached an installation video of this harness on a 2002...

  • Installing a 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 2013 Ford E-250 Van
    I checked with Tow Ready about 7-Way connector # 118261 and it is not a confirmed fit for the 2013 Ford E-250 van. Since there are no other options and since you have some factory wiring already, I recommend using 4 and 7-Way connector # HM40975 with harness # PK11998. You will need to test the wiring on the vehicle end with a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 to determine the functions. Then you can install the harness accordingly: Red - Left Turn and Stop White - Ground Blue - Electric...

  • 7-Way Wiring Harness Installation on a 2004 1500 Chevrolet Silverado
    You can use the Pollak 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket, item # HM40975, if you are replacing an existing 7-way connector on the rear of your 2004 Chevy Pickup. If you need to install the 7-Way connector for the first time the factory connection point is going to be on the left side of the vehicle above the spare tire. If there is a plug on the end of the wiring harness located above the spare tire, it will simply plug into the rear of the HM40975. If the harness ends in bare wires,...

  • Parts Needed to Add a 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 1998 Dodge Ram 1500
    If your 1998 Dodge Ram came with a 7-Way and you need a replacement you can use Pollak 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket, # HM40975, and Pigtail Wiring Harness, # PK11998 if needed. The Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-, 5- and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector, # HM48470, can be used as well but it is a hardwire connector meaning you would have to attach existing wires from the truck to the connector according to the wiring diagram I have linked for you.

  • Does Custer 7-Way Round to 7-Way Blade Adapter Have Signal Converter in It
    Hey Shawn, this is a great question but no the Custer 7-way round to 7-way blade adapter does not have a converter in it so that the separate signal circuits are combined. Basically this adapter is designed to just convert the styles of 7-way but not actually go from the semi truck style to RV style of wiring. To convert the signals you would need an converter like the part # RM-732 which you could splice into this adapter if you wanted. Sometimes in situations like this you can wire...

  • Adding a Connector on a 2004 Chevy Express to Plug In Wiring Harness # 41155
    You could wire in harness # PK11998 to those factory wires on your 2004 Chevy Express. If you are only needing a 4-Way connector such as # 41155 then you would not use the blue, black, or yellow wires from PK11998 and can tape them up and tuck them out of the way. The wires on your van will need to be tested with a circuit tester such as # ALL640595 or a meter if you have one. You cannot go by wire color since there isn't exactly a standard that everyone goes by. On the PK11998 harness...

  • Parts Needed To Install A Brake Controller On A 2023 Freightliner Cascadia
    You do have the option to utilize the air brakes on your 2023 Freightliner Cascadia to control electric trailer brakes using the Hayes Air Actuated Trailer Brake Controller, part # HA100400C. However, we mostly recommend just using an electric brake controller since they tie into the stop light switch of the tow vehicle, making it irrelevant what kind of brakes it has. For an electric brake controller I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195. A very solid, user friendly brake controller....

    To get a 7-Way connector at the rear of your 2010 Chevrolet Silverado I would use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 and test the 7 bare wires for function. Then, use the Pollak 4 Foot Pigtail Wiring Harness, part # PK11998, to connect to the 7 bare wires by function using the included butt connectors. I would not connect them by colors because the colors will not always match the same function. After the wiring harness is attached correctly to your functioning bare wires on the vehicle...

  • Availability of Trailer Hitch and Wiring for 2020 Ford Transit T350 With Extended High Roof
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C14012 you looked at fits the cargo van and passenger wagon models of the 2020 Ford Transit T350. The extended high roof won't impact fitment so you will be able to use this hitch on your T350. This is a Class IV hitch with a bolt-on installation and a lifetime warranty. Since it sounds like you don't have a factory trailer connector you will either need the Curt # C56327 or if you have dual rear wheels the Tekonsha # 118722. Both of these plug into the...

If you want to replace your connector near the license plate, then I recommend the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket w/ Mounting Bracket # HM40975. Both of these connect to the factory wiring harness already present in your vehicle. If that harness has been...

  • Is Hopkins or Pollak Better for Trailer Connectors?
    Personally, I'm a much bigger fan of Pollak than I am of Hopkins. In my experience, I've had fewer issues with 7-way plug fitting loosely with Pollak brand 7-ways and Pollak is generally the "go-to" brand for most OEM truck setups.  The snag is there isn't a 4-way and 7-way Pollak branded trailer connector currently, but I have some good news. The Hopkins 7 and 4-Pole Trailer Connector, # HM40975, is actually made by Pollak, but sold by Hopkins. This is the same plug I have on my Silverado...

  • Adding a 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 2016 Chevrolet Express 3500 Van
    We don't have a 7-way to plug directly into the van but I do have an option for you. If your 2016 Chevrolet Express 3500 van had a factory 7-way and it needs to be replaced you can wire in a new one with a harness like # PK11998 and then connect it to a 7-way connector like # A10-7072VP or # HM40975. If there is currently no trailer connector at all you will first need to install a 4-way connector, # 31345. Once you have the 4-way you can use our # ETBC7 kit for a fully functioning 7-way....

  • Wiring Harness to Plug into the Back of a Pollak 7-Way Trailer Connector PA66GF30
    The Pollak # PK11998 wiring harness is the correct one that you would need. It plugs into the back of many different types of 7-Way trailer connectors so it isn't surprising that the one you have looks different than the ones we carry. As long as your connector has the round receptacle in the back to plug in a harness # PK11998 will work. I believe the one you have is the same as or similar to # PK11893.

    I recommend using the Pollack Replacement 7-Way Trailer Connector Socket, # PK11893, and the 4ft Pigtail Wiring Harness, # PK11998. The screw holes for the 7-way socket are 2-1/2 inches x 1-3/4 inches, which match your specification. I have attached a photo showing the screw hole dimensions as well as the overall dimensions for you. This socket does not come with the installation hardware.

    The correct replacement 7-way for your Tundra should be part # HM43385. You can confirm this by examining the connectors under the truck that the connector would plug into. One connector should accept 4 pins, the other three pins. If your connectors are different, with one accepting 4 pins and the other 2 pins, you would need # HM11143395. The HM43385 fits 2003-2007 Tundra models, according to Hopkins. It is important that you check the existing connectors to ensure you get the correct...

    The pins themselves aren't available separately. Your best course of action would be to replace your existing 7-way with one like the # PK11893 you mentioned. The pigtail, part # PK11998 would plug into the back of the replacement connector, and to activate the 12-volt power supply circuit, you'd need to run a length of 10 gauge wire # 10-1-1, which is sold by the foot from the black wire on the pigtail to the positive battery terminal with a 40 amp circuit breaker # 9510 installed inline.

    You can install a 7-way trailer connector like # PK11893 in your 1995 Dodge pickup by using a pigtail harness # PK11998. This harness has a matching U.S. Car connector to plug in to the 7-way and the pigtail leads allow you to splice into the truck's wiring using the included butt connectors. We do not have access to a wiring schematic for the vehicle but what you can do is use a circuit tester like # PTW2992 to test the function on each wire on the truck.

  • Solution for Lost 7-Way Retaining Clip that Attaches to Socket
    The clip that you are referring to that holds the 7-way plug to the socket is typically found on the connector which is why the # HM40940 does not come with it. I wish we sold that piece by itself but only way to get it is to go with a new harness like part # PK11998 and you'd be set. I like where you mounted the 7-way too. A lot of factory 7-ways install in similar places which helps prevent accidental damage like the scenarios you described.
