Video Transcript for A Closer Look at the Quick Splices

Speaker 1: Today we're going to take a look at the quick splices 14-, 16-, 18-gauge blue self stripping connector. It's for a quantity of one. Now this is a closed port quick splices self-stripping connector. It is designed to splice into an existing wire without having to cut, crimp, or strip the wire. Provides an open channel in the front for your existing wire. And then in the back is a closed channel for the tap wire.

The blade right up here on top, well, that's what will pierce the wires in each of the channels when you push down on it. And then you just put the cover over it and complete your connection.Now there are pliers required to squeeze down on that blade after your wires are placed in it. Now this part is comparable to the 3M blue quick splice connector. This is for a quantity of one. The connector color is blue.

And again, it's for a 14-, 16-, or 18-gauge wire and the maximum power rating is 600 volts.So what I'm going to show you here . I happen to have two 14-gauge wires, so what you'll want to do, like we mentioned, the front is all open, so you put your wire in there that you want to tap into. Then, you'll take your wire and on the back channel it'll only go . you push the wire in, it will only go so far 'cause it's a closed port on the back one. So you push that all the way.

Then once you get them all the way to where you want them, just take your pliers, put it on there, push down on it, just like that, and once you push down enough, you'll see that that has connected those. Then, just take your cover and that snaps right over there. As simple as that, you've tap into the wire without having to do any cutting, crimping, or stripping of the wire. That should do it for the review on the quick splices 14-, 16-, 18-gauge blue self stripping connector for a quantity of one.

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring Harness For A 2025 Hyundai Tucson SEL
    Hey Tim, The ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT is compatible with LED lights and has been used as a go to for years for people who have LED trailer lights. The light function is supposed send a tiny bit of voltage from the vehicle tail lights to the converter box so it knows what signal to send out the 4-pole connector to the trailer. If your tail lights are staying on like that question you saw then the shop either spliced the wrong wires together or the converter...

  • Troubleshooting Red Light On Curt Spectrum With Trailer Brakes Not Working On a 2014 Toyota Tacoma
    The first place I would start is with the Curt Custom Wiring Adapter # C51362 that you have connected between the Curt Spectrum Trailer Brake Controller # C51170 and your 2014 Toyota Tacoma. The red light that you are getting when the brakes are pressed indicates that the red wire that connects to the brake switch is either connected to the ground side of the switch or there is a short to ground. I do believe that you have a ground wire issue. The Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter 3040-P...

  • Recommended License Plate Holder for Bike Racks That Does Not Require Splicing Wires
    No, there's plenty of license plate light options for bike racks that don't require using the item # SWC502905-1 to splice into your vehicle's wiring. For example the Thule License Plate Holder for Bike Racks item # TH35JV plugs directly into your vehicle's 4-way connector. What specific bike rack do you have? There's few custom fit options out there for lights and license plate brackets. You can add this information and any other questions you have where it says Reply to Jerred H and...

  • Where to Splice Brake Light Wire From Brake Controller To Stoplight Wire
    Since your vehicle does not have a brake controller port, you will want to use a universal wiring pigtail. For example, if you have a Tekonsha brake controller, you could use a Plug-In Harness for Tekonsha and Draw-Tite Brake Controllers # 20127. You will want to use a circuit tester, like # PTW2993, to test the wires at the stoplight switch at the back of your brake pedal to find the wire that only has signal when the brake pedal is depressed. Once you have found the wire that only produces...

  • Installing a Brake Controller in 2001 Toyota Tacoma
    Based on my research, the 2001 Toyota Tacoma did not come with a factory trailer connector. However, since you already have a 4-way connector installed on your truck, you will be able to start here for your brake controller installation. I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller # 90885. This is a proportional brake controller with a digital display. It will level automatically when mounted within a 360-degree vertical range. The brake controller installs in your Tacoma...

  • How To Wire LED License Plate Light bracket LPL55CB To Exiting 4-way Trailer Connector On Vehicle
    I would be happy to help! To install the Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Bracket # LPL55CB on your 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon and power it through your current trailer connector you will just need to get a trailer end 4-way connector # 18004. You will connect the black wire from the bracket light to the brown wire on the 4-way connector, and the white wire from the bracket light to the white wire on the 4-way connector using heat shrink butt connectors # DW05744-5.

  • Should Scotchlok Connectors Be Re Used If Wires Come Out?
    Hey Jared, thanks for reaching out. Typically those scotchlok connectors are one-time use so if the wires came out I would have to recommend replacing the connector. We offer replacements if you are in need.

  • How Would Lighted Thule License Plate Holder # TH35JV Wire to Taillight Kit of Bike Rack
    The Thule License Plate Holder part # TH35JV only uses the running light circuit and ground circuit for wiring. So if you were to run taillights onto your bike rack as well you'd need to splice the # TH35JV into the brown wire and white wire of the wiring and you'd be set. For an easy way to make this connection you could use quick splices like the part # SWC502905-1.

  • Determining Factory Wire Color Functions for Brake Controller Port on 2016 Ram 3500
    The easiest way to install your Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 is to use the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3024-P. This adapter will not require and cutting or splicing into your 2016 Ram 3500's factory wiring. If you need to hardwire install the controller, I can help you determine which wire colors carry which functions on the vehicle side brake controller installation port in your 2016 Ram 3500. Since we know which pins carry each function on the custom wiring harness # 3024-P, we...

    You will need to use a quick splice, item # SWC502905-1, and splice the black wire from the LED Trailer License-Plate Light, item # LPL55CB, into the taillight wire on your trailer. The taillight wire is normally the brown wire, but you should use a circuit tester, item # PTW2993 if needed, to be sure you are splicing into the correct wire. You will then need to attach the white wire to ground, usually the trailer frame or the white wire coming from the trailer connector. Once wired the...

  • Best Way For Connecting The Brown Side Marker Light Wire To A Boat Trailer
    There are two options for getting your side marker/running lights wired up on your trailer and I included two diagrams for you to check out. Option A will be to follow one wire that starts at the 4 Flat and follows the trailer frame down one side, across the back, and then up the other side, Teeing off where ever you have a marker light and or taillight. I tend to not prefer this method as if just one little issue happens with a light closer to the 4 Flat, all the lights after will not...

  • Brake Controller Installation on 2012 Jeep Liberty w/ Factory 7-Way Trailer Connector
    Jeep didn't put a brake controller connector under the dash of the 2012 Liberty. To install a brake controller, you will need to a little bit of wiring. The wire Jeep provides is the electric brake output wire that goes back to the 7-Way trailer connector. This wire should be a light green or blue wire that is near the emergency brake pedal or above the kick panel to the left of the emergency brake pedal. It will connect to the blue wire on the brake controller. You will need to wire...

Jeep ran the brake controller output wire from the 7-way up into the passenger compartment, look for a coiled up blue or light green bare-ended wire near the top of the e-brake pedal.

    I have attached a diagram that shows how to wire a brake controller from scratch. If your truck did not come with a 7-way trailer connector, then you will also need to use the Installation Kit, # ETBC7. Your 1998 Chevrolet Pick up will not have a plug-in style connector option for the brake controller, so it will have to be hard wired to the vehicle. There will be four wires coming from the brake controller. The white wire is the ground and that should either be attached to the negative...

The output wire is either light green or blue in color and should be bundled up by the emergency brake. The wire should have a tag or sticker that says, 'trailer brake.' There isn't a plug-in wiring adapter available, the remaining connections would need to be hardwired using our brake controller installation...

  • How To Connect Trailer Brake Controller To Cold Side Of Stoplight Switch In 2020 GMC Terrain
    You are correct. On your 2020 GMC Terrain connecting a trailer brake controller harness is a bit different as you cannot just connect the red stoplight wire directly to the cold side wire of the stop light switch. The work around for this is you will need to pick up the cold side wire in the BCM (Body Control Module) of your Terrain. The BCM is located between the emergency brake pedal and brake pedal about where your left knee is when sitting in the driver seat as shown in the included...

  • Brake Controller Install on 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee with Factory Tow Package
    I spoke with one of my contacts at Tekonsha, who tells me he is unaware of any vehicle-specific problems installing a controller on a 2008 Grand Cherokee. The only connection to the vehicle that could possibly affect the vehicle computer would be connecting the red wire on the controller to the wrong wire at the brake stoplight switch. The controller would be mounted under the dash to the right of the steering column, within easy reach of the driver. You can find the green wire that...

Keep in mind, these will only work if your truck came with a factory 7-way connector and you are simply looking for a replacement connector. If your truck only has a 4-way flat connector and you are looking to upgrade to a 7-way way connector, then I recommend...

  • Can I Use the Quick Splice Connectors to Install a New Wishbone 4-Flat Trailer Harness
    Yes. There's no reason you can't use something like the Quick Splices - Self-Stripping Connector - Closed Port - 14-16-18 Gauge - Blue - Qty 1 # SWC502905-1 to install the # W002230 on your trailer. The # W002230 uses 18 gauge wiring, so the # SWC502905-1 would be the recommended quick splices assuming that your trailer also uses 14, 16 or 18 gauge wiring. I've also linked all of our quick splice connectors to this answer in case you find that you need something sized differently.

You simply attach the white wire with the ring terminal to a clean, bare metal surface like the trailer frame, and then attach the black wire to the running light wire that leads to the tail light. You can attach the black wire to the trailer tail light circuit (usually a brown wire). If you are unsure which wire the tail light circuit is, an easy way to check is to attach the...
