Video Transcript for Wesbar Wiring - Trailer Connectors - W787268 Review
Today we'll be reviewing part number W787268. This is the West Bar Four Pull Flat Connector with a jacketed cable. For your trailer end, it's going to measure 8 feet in length. See here on this end, we have our four wires exposed. Our yellow wire is going to be for our left turn and stop lights. The green wire is going to be for our right turn and stop lights.
The brown wire is going to be for our tail license side marker and clearance lights, and the white wire is going to be our ground wire. Here on this end we have the four way flat connector that's going to provide a male plug for your trailer. The jacketed cable protects the wire against the elements, so it's going to really prevent some different kinds of forms of damage that typically happens to exposed wires, and on this end, we do have the color-coded stripped wires. It's going to ensure a nice, simple, installation. The outer diameter of the cable was measured with our measuring calipers. That's going to measure .40 inches, and once you have your connection, you have 8 feet of cable to work with.
That's going to do it for today's review of part number W787268. This is the West Bar Four Pull Flat Connector. .

Good quality product. Nice, thick protective sheathing/jacket & the molded connector is easy to grip. The only complaint is that the price seems quite high considering that other typical unsheathed flat-4 pigtails are less than 1/3 the cost of this one 175910

A quality plug. Jacketed cable a big improvement over having the 4 wires exposed. 8 feet of cable is plenty to attach under the trailer. 939894

This connector is exactly what I needed to rewire my 16' foot hydraulic brake trailer. The 4-pole connector is molded into the wiring jacket. Quality copper wire with thick rubber jacket for extra protection. I am going to run this to a connector box and then run new jacketed wire to lights. I am very pleased with this cable. 901929

Seems to be great quality, and heavy duty. the trailer gets used quite a bit, so this should hold up to abuse. 745391

by: James01/21/2020
The heavy duty nature is excellent. the plug is easy to grip and extends out past the end of the spring loaded cover on my Ram truck. The flat ribbon type get pinched in the cover and the wires always break eventually. Trailers that get used every day have always had problems. 739726

I wanted a cable like this one but could not find one at any of the local auto parts stores or on Amazon. I have used etrailer before because of the specialty trailer wiring products so ordered again. Great price, was shipped by priority mail. This cable is best because of the molded cable and plug, makes for a neat installation without having a bunch of individual wires as most trailer wiring kits have. 706894

Perfect, ordered another one for a different trailer.

The product was delivered on schedule and is exactly as described. The connector is high quality and connected to my vehicles connector nice and secure. There were no instructions included but the website has a couple videos explaining which wires control the signals, brakes, and side markers. A perfect replacement for the old worn out cable on my Bass Tracker trailer. 706696

Ask the Experts about this Wesbar Wiring
- What Type of Wire is Used in the Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Trailer ConnectorThe Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Connector w/ Jacketed Cable part # W787268 has CCA stranded copper wire. It is not a solid copper wire. I have linked a video showing the installation of it for you to check out.
view full answer... - Gauge Wire Used for the Wesbar 4-Way part # W787268The gauge of wire used on the 4-Way part # W787268 that you referenced is 16 gauge.
view full answer... - Vehicle Side 4-Way to Match Wesbar 4-Way part # W787268 While Wesbar doesn't have an exact match for the trailer side 4-way part # W787268 we do have similar 4-ways like the part # HM48030 from Hopkins that would work great.
view full answer... - Trailer Connector for Golf Cart How you'd proceed will depend on how the existing taillights on the golf cart are wired. If it's a combined wiring system, where the turn signal and brake lamp are carried on the same circuit you can simply splice a 4 pole connector in using # 18252. Rather than using the quick splice connectors, I'd recommend soldering the connections and protecting them with heat shrink tubing like # DW05451. If you don't have a soldering iron, we offer a handy cordless model as part # PTW2000. If...

Since your trailer is currently equipped with a European style 7-way connector and your Lexus has a US style connector, you will need to cut off the connector on your trailer and install a US style like the Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Connector, # W787268, along with Tail Light Converter, # 118158. You will need to start by wiring the tail light converter to the 4-way connector, color for color. The next step will be to wire the output end of the converter to the...

- What is the Outer Diameter of the Cable for Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Connector w/ Jacketed CableI went out to the warehouse and pulled Wesbar 4-Way trailer side wiring harness # W787268. I used a set of digital calipers to measure the outer diameter of the cable and it is 0.40 inches in diameter.

- Replacement 4-Way Harness with Lead Length Nearest to 7 FeetThe part # W787268 is a replacement 4-way harness that comes with 8 feet of wiring which would be the closest size we have to what you need.
view full answer... - Replacement 4-Pole Trailer Connector for Utility Trailer with 5-Wire Wishbone Wiring SetupWhen a 4-pole (4-pin) flat trailer connector actually has 5 wires this simply means it is a 'wishbone' style connector with dual running light wires. These dual wires just make it easier to connect to the running lights on both sides of the trailer. Examples of such items are # A35W42B, # A20WB and # A10-4225VP. If your trailer wiring is still okay and you just need a new 4-pole plug to re-connect the leads from the trailer you can use Hopkins Endurance Quick-Fix Replacement 4-Way Flat...

- Trailer Lighting/Wiring Kit for Snowmobile TrailerStandard 4-pole trailer wiring uses flat-style connectors, like part # W787268 which is a trailer-side connector and part # HM48044 which is the mating vehicle side connector. On these items and on the 16-gauge bonded 4-pole wire # 16-4B-1 you referenced in your question the usual pin/function assignments are the same. These are as shown in the linked photo and in the article on trailer wiring that is included for you. The one pin that is not like the others will be the GROUND pin which...

- How To Hook Up Lights On a Flat-Bed Without SplicingIn order to achieve your goal of not splicing into the factory trailer wiring harness we are basically going to create a wiring harness for the flatbed which would plug into the factory trailer connector. In order to do this we are first going to want a junction box, part # 3430001-JBK. Once we have the junction box we can then run the wires from the headache rack and tail lights to this with part # 16-4B-1 (per foot). After this is completed the only other thing we need to do is attach...
view full answer... - Recommended Replacement Wiring for 1996 Dutchman Duck with Obsolete Wiring HarnessThank you for the picture. If the contacts on your trailer connector are like those on the Hopkins 6-Pole Square Connector Kit # 37995 then you can use 1/2 of this kit to replace your trailer's damaged connector and also Hidden Hitch adapter # 30104 to join it to your 4-pole-equipped vehicle. If this is not your connector then your best bet is to re-wire the trailer with a new 4-pole connector to match what is on your vehicle. You can use a junction box like # 38656 to join the existing...

- Best Way to Ground Lights on Aluminum TrailerThe best way to handle the grounds for lights on an aluminum trailer is to mount a junction box like # 38656. You can then run ground jumpers from all lights back to the junction box and also connect the 4-pole such as # W787268. The box provide both a handy connection point for all the wiring and it protects those connections. You'll use ring terminals like # DW05702-1 for all connections in the junction box and butt connectors like # DW05744-10 to make any needed splices to the lights'...
view full answer... - Wire Gauge of Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Connector With Jacketed CableI verified with Wesbar that the 4-Pole Flat Connectors # W787274 for the 14 foot, # W787270 for the 10 foot, and # W787268 for the 8 foot are all 14 gauge wires.
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Tow a 2013 Kia Optima on a Tow DollyI checked the online manual for your 2013 Kia Optima and didn't see anything about recreational dolly towing, only emergency dolly towing. While the manual didn't give any distance restrictions for dolly towing it is always best to confirm whether it is safe or not with a Kia dealer. If it is okay then you simply need a tow dolly and then some lights. Tow dollies tend to have lights on them but it helps to have some extra lights to make sure people around you can tell what you are doing. For...
view full answer... - Can a 2007 Kia Sportage be Towed Behind a Motorhome Using a Tow DollyIf your 2007 Kia Sportage is a 2WD then you can use a tow dolly to tow it per the owner's manual. If you have a 4WD version then it will need to be towed with all 4 wheels off of the ground. I recommend verifying which ones you have before purchasing a tow dolly. We have 2 different options for a Tow Dolly from Roadmaster. Part # RM-2050-1 is the more basic version and is rated for 4,250 lbs while part # RM-2000-1 features self-steering wheels and is rated for 4,380 lbs. Both are equipped...
view full answer... - How Much of Each Gauge of Wire Fit Inside a Wire Loom ComfortablyI 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...

- Replacement Trailer Side 4-Pole Connector for Boat TrailerWe do offer replacement trailer-side 4-pole wiring kits that you can use to replace the damaged one on your boat trailer. For a trailer-side 4-pole we offer various lengths, such as the 4-foot Wesbar # W787264, 8-foot harness # W787268 and 14-foot # W787274. The Hopkins part # HM48240 that you referenced is a similar 20-foot harness. This features a wishbone construction, which means dual running light wires so that there is one for each side of the trailer. We also have a 35-foot long...
view full answer... - Solution for Connecting Vehicle With 4-Way Flat to Trailer With 4-Way RoundThere are adapters that go from a 4-round on a vehicle to a 4-flat on a trailer but not vice-versa, but we do have a simple solution for you. All you need to do is cut off your trailer's 4-round and wire in a trailer-side 4-flat, the Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Connector - 4' Long # W787264 or 8' Long # W787268. To install either you just need the Butt Connectors # 05731-5. I've added a link to an install video for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting 4-pole Wiring on Haulmaster TrailerSince you've tested the 4-pole harness on your 2012 Chevrolet Sonic and found it to have the correct lighting signals you can start your trailer troubleshooting at the main ground wire that connects to the trailer frame. This white wire's ring terminal needs to make solid contact to a clean bare metal spot on the frame, one that is free of paint, primer, rust and grease. Since none of your trailer light circuits work it is likely that the ground or a bad connector is the cause. You can...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Install New Trailer Plug and Junction Box on TrailerI have a solution for you, and it sounds like you're maybe looking for some sort of plug and play option that you can use as an extender into the junction box, but that does not exist. Your best bet is just to cut the plug on your trailer off and wire the loose wires directly into the junction box; you'll then run a new plug out of the junction box to add the new trailer wiring plug. I recommend using the Junction Box and Installation Kit for Autowbrake Trailer-Mounted Electric Brake Controller...

That really helps when we are trying to find a solution for someone. Chances are you have a Jayco trailer and we have an adapter, part # 30104 that allows you to use the 4-way connector you are installing on your RAV4 and just plug it into the adapter in the photo. If that does not work I recommend re-wiring the trailer and adding a 4-way harness on the trailer like either part # W787264 or part # W787268. You would then...

- How to Tow a Trailer with Separate Brake and Turn Signals In order to convert the three wire system on your trailer to be used with a two wire system on the tow vehicle you will need to use the Vehicle to Vehicle Tail Light Converter part # 118158 in conjunction with the Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Connector part # W787268. This will combine the brake and turn signals together on the trailer. If you can let me know the year, make, and model of the tow vehicle I would be happy to recommend a 4-way if you do not already have one.
