• How to Ground Lights When Re-Wiring Aluminum Frame Snowmobile Trailer
  Although it may not be absolutely necessary, aluminum does not conduct well so running the ground wire to your aluminum frame is not recommended. Instead, you can use # DW02359-1 to run individual ground wires for each light up to your main ground wire at the tongue of your trailer. This will keep everything working properly and prevent the wide range of issues a bad ground can cause.

• How Much of Each Gauge of Wire Fit Inside a Wire Loom Comfortably
  I would certainly recommend the 1/2-inch wire loom # 459075-1. It will hold two jacketed 2 wire 10-gauge wire and three jacketed 2 wire 12-gauge wire. See pictures to the right. In addition, I was able to fit comfortably eleven individual 16-gauge wire # DW02359-1 into the 1/2-inch wire loom. I also took a digital caliper to measure the exact radius of each type of wire: 10-gauge is .17 of an inch, 12-gauge is .14 of an inch and 16-gauge is .09 of an inch. The 10, 12 and 16-gauge wiring...

• Troubleshooting Trailer Running Lights on Right Side Not Working
  If the running lights on your right (or passenger) side are working, but they are working for the other side then this indicates that you either have a short, some damaged wiring, or your running light (or just the bulb) on the left side needs to be replaced. Since trailer running lights on both sides use the same wiring you know that your trailer is getting the power because one side is lighting up. Start at your trailer plug and work your way back to your running light on the right...

  You can utilize a power wall remote switch # VC0533-03-A or # VC0533-02-A (black or white). A rocker switch # BL0108-00 will work and you will need 2 of them.

• How to Connect a Surge Brake Actuator to Activate the Reverse Lockout Function
  There are 2 wires that are coming out of the actuator in the Titan Disc Brake Kit # T4843300. You will want to connect one to the 5-Pole connector on your trailer and ground the other one using a Ring Terminal # DW05737-1; it doesn't matter which wire is used for which purpose. If you only have a 4-Pole connector on your trailer then I recommend using the Hopkins Endurance 5-Way Flat Trailer Connector # HM47910 instead. You will want to cut off your current 4-Pole and use Butt Connectors...

• Wire Size Used to Install MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/12V Fan & Thermostat MA00-05100K
  The MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Thermostat - Manual Lift - 10 Speed - White Item # MA00-05100K only requires 12 volt, 5 amp power to operate so based on this 12 gauge wire would be overkill but 16 gauge such as # DW02359-1 sold by the foot is more ideal.

• Preferred Method of Grounding Trailer Lighting Circuits
  Running a direct ground up to the trailer tongue or junction box would certainly work, but the only time I'd see that as being necessary is if the lamps were connected to a non metallic structure or a metallic structure that wasn't directly connected to the trailer frame. If the lamps aren't connected to a metal structure in direct contact with the trailer frame, you can use a short length of # DW02359-1 wire with a # DW05702-1 ring terminal on each end to serve as a jumper wire that joins...

• How To Run Grounds for Lights on an Aluminum Frame Trailer
  It sounds like you may be wondering how to attach the grounds on your trailer because it has an aluminum frame which you have either read or experienced issues with. If that is the case then I recommend you first use a junction box like the Pollak 10-Terminal Junction Box part # PK52248. Once you have this you can then run all of your lights and trailer connector to a single ground point on the coupler with a ring terminal like the part # DW05762-1 (junction box to coupler) and extra wire...

• Why Do Trailer Lights Flicker When Hitting Bumps
  In order to fix the issue with your lights flickering you will want to pick a good spot on the trailer frame near the coupler and then run a ground wire from each of the lights as well as the trailer connector to this point. If you need to extend the wires you can use part # DW02359-1 and part # DW05744-5. Once you find a good ground point, sand the surface down, twist the wires together after you have removed part of the jacket, and then attach it to the sanded surface with part # DW05741-1...

• Can Junction Box be Submerged When Rewiring Boat Trailer
  You can re-do the wiring on your boat trailer with a junction box, but a junction box cannot be submerged as they aren't waterproof. So if you are able to place the junction box in a location that allows it not to be submerged, the best option is the Trailer Wiring Junction Box # 3375601100. This comes with ring terminals and if you need wire we offer it sold by the foot with 12 Gauge # 12-1-1, 14 Gauge # DW02413-1, 16 Gauge # DW02359-1.

• What Gauge Wiring For 16 Foot Gooseneck Horse Trailer?
  Using the 6-Way Molded Connector w/ Cable - Trailer End # 50-61-104 and a junction box like # 38656 is a wise start. I recommend using the Ring Terminal - 12-10 Gauge Wire - 3/16" Ring ID # 44-5310A for this fit. For your brake wiring, I recommend using 10 gauge wire # 10-2-1. For your tail lights, running lights and interior lights you can use 16 gauge wire like the Bonded 4 Wire - per foot # 16-4B-1 or single wire # DW02359-1.

  The MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Thermostat - Manual Lift - 10 Speed - White # MA00-04000K you were looking at will require the roof of your 1998 Casita Spirit Deluxe to be 2"-6-1/2" thick, and will require a 14" x 14" opening. If you find that your roof is not quite thick enough you can use lumber to frame out the opening to add thickness. There is no reason the # MA00-04000K will not work for your camper, but you will need to add a 12v power wire and ground wire from your camper...

• Replacing 2 Wire Marker Lights With Single Wire Marker Lights
  On lights similar to the Optronics LED Trailer Clearance and Side Marker Light # MCL44AB1 that will only have 1 wire pigtail this is the positive power wire.

• Converting a 3-Way Northland Truck Camper Wiring Harness to a 4-Way Flat
  What you can do is to use the Quick FixTM 4 Pole Flat Car and Trailer Ends, # 48195, and not use one of the pins since you only have three wires that need to be connected. You can then use the wire you need inside of them as needed. The wires that run to the battery are most likely 10 gauge like # 10-1-1. The remaining wire is probably a 16 gauge like # DW02359-1.

• Recommended Roof Vent for 2013 Ford Transit Connect
  I have a couple of different options for a roof vent on your 2013 Ford Transit. A lot of our roof vents sit around the same height, so it really just depends on what kind of style you would like to have. The Ventline Ventadome # V2110SP-24 is a good option because it only adds 2 inches in height when closed, and 11 inches in height when opened. You can also make sure that your roof vent matches the rest of your Transit by painting it. This manual vent doesn't include a fan and requires...
