Most Popular Trailer End Connector for 2005 Volkswagen Passat

great works, easy to install, I put one on and have another to put on my other trailer but should be as easy to install as the first, I love it easer to get in and out of the connection to the jeep.

One of the best products out there for trailer wiring. It has solved my problems of broken wires and connectors perfectly.

I was expecting blade connectors as shown in the pictures and video and that is the main reason I purchased this item. Instead it had screw connectors.

Works great, easy to install

etrailer is the only place I could find this item. It is much higher quality than other flat connectors, with weather covers and big finger/thumb grips to actually hold onto the connectors and easily separate them. I used the 'trailer' end in my adapter unit.

The female connector is attached to the swing arm of a motorcycle to provide lighting lighting for a trailer pulled by the motorcycle. This means that there is likely much more movement in the harness than for an automotive application. I've never had a problem with any part of the harness. I found this product to be exactly what I wanted, well made and easy to install. The protective cap functions well as it remains pliable (flexible) after a year of use, and while it has never fallen off in use, it is easy enough to remove before making the connection. It has done the perfect job of keeping mud and other detritus out of the contacts. The recessed nut holders also function well and is one of the reasons I chose this wiring kit. This wiring kit gets high regard and recommendation from me. All of my purchases from etrailer have been solid products delivered at reasonable cost.

Perfect! extra long so I got rid of all my bull crab wiring

Well made, especially the mounding around the plug. Pin alignment was very good.

Çable good but after putting new 7way plug on truck cable wire colors did not match etrailers picture

7 pin connector separated from cable. I was expecting that "Molded Cable" meant that the connector was fused to the cable insulation but instead, the two separated almost immediately after I installed it. It still works fine as the wires are connected securely inside the connector but with the outer covering pulled out like this, I don't think it will last very long.

Wiring worked perfect for my project. I replaced the wiring on my 14 foot utility trailer. If I was to do it again I would buy the next length up. I would have liked to have a little extra wiring if I was to ever need it.

Your sales staff is second to none. Keep up the good work. You shipped minutes after I placed my order! Very impressed! Marty

My 12 ft utility trailer needed a makeover, I stripped it down, installed new boards, repainted I and installed new wiring and lights. I ordered the wiring and lights from etrailer and they arrived in about a week and everything I ordered arrived in perfect shape. It installed very easily and worked perfectly when connected to my vehicle. Thanks etrailer for delivering on quality products and great service. Marty, Peoria AZ

I decided this would be cheaper than any extension I could find, plus I'm going to shorten the wires anyways, so it's no big deal if it's in two parts already. I have a powered light adapter that's intended to be located outside, but I don't care for the idea of having that power wire running out to the hitch, so I'm going to use this kit as an extension so I can keep the adapter inside the car. My car has auxiliary wiring sockets to plug a trailer harness into, so I wont be using the included splices, but those look fairly decent. I would recommend packing those splice taps with grease, to keep water out if you use those sort of things. I usually don't

Used on a pull behind motorcycle trailer so could go from receiving a 6 pin to a 5 pin. Wired it into loom so can use on more than one motorcycle. Works great. Glad to have found a place that even sold this product.

A similar trailer light connector was installed on my motorcycle cargo trailer when I purchased it way back in 2003. When I purchased my new Gold Wing in 2019, I wanted to use the same type of connector. Since I had to add a new female connector to the bike, I decided to renew the male connector on the trailer. I especially like this connector because it always stays secure when connected. I also wanted the connections to be out of sight when not in use. I have pulled my trailer with this new connection for over 2,500 miles and it has performed great.

I rewired my light bar for my boat trailer with the items I purchased. Before I built the the light bar, every time I used my boat trailer I would waste valuable sailing or fishing time repairing faulty lights. The do not last long when you submerge them in salt water. This light bar now version 3.0 have given little trouble over the years

Great product. Works well when I had a broken connection on my 4 way plug end on my light-up hitch cover I bought from y'all a while back. Always a happy customer. Thanks, George.

I've had this in use for over a year and they don't build them like they use to. I use this on a gooseneck trailer and the piece of plastic behind the spade connector for the clearance lights and brakes has melted, allowing the spade connector to lose contact with the plug on the pickup. So the lights would cut off in the middle of the night and would have to wiggle the connection till I could fix it. I have an older Hopkins plug and never had this problem. To fix the problem I ended up putting pieces of thin copper wire behind the spade and have done it twice since the plastic melted a 2nd time and once again the trailer clearance lights would quit working. Attached are before and after pictures.

After a year doing its job well.

When I ordered this harness I thought I was getting a standard 7 way for a conventional trailer with brakes. What I actually got was a harness made for a camper/RV hook up. The wires have all the colors you would expect but all the lights/turn signals are coded into the plug completely different. After spending a good deal of time carefully matching, soldering and heat shrinking all connections to my new trailer harness, I was very dismayed to find only the brakes actually worked. After a bit of research I found a schematics page on the etrailer site and discovered the problem. As this is a molded plug I could not take it apart and just reposition the wires inside the plug. Another full hour or more of rewiring followed and now all is well. The harness itself is of very good quality but was not labeled/identified properly. This could have been prevented if etrailer would clearly label this harness as a camper/RV harness only.

This is definitely a good quality molded cord for the money. Route and wire this cord into a good quality junction box and you will be on your way to having some excellent trailer wiring.

I was super impressed with the service from etrailer.com! The product was just what I wanted, price was great, and I received it in just a few days.

Exactly what I needed. Etrailer always comes through

Replaced the wiring and lights on my 1992 boat trailer. I was able to get everything needed from etrailer. I think Optronics is of the highest quality and recommend both etrailer and Optronics product.

Works very well after re-wiring trailer lights with waterproof distribution box.

fast shipping, plug was as advertized

These guys are the best! Just about every product imaginable, super service. Obtain alla my trailer stuff from etrailer.

I am enclosing 2 photos of trailer connector I purchased from etrailer. I have a 1995 Dutchman popup trailer. It had a 6 way round connector which would not fit my 2010 F150. By using your trailer connector diagrams, I was able to determine Dutchman was using white for the ground, blue for brakes, black for battery, brown for right turn/brake, red for left turn/brake, and green for tail lights. I replaced the 6 way with your 7 way connector.

Quality built product. This connector seems to take less effort to plug in to the 7-flat socket than others that I have installed. Metal housing provides great rigidity. I appreciate that they include the clip to stow the connector when not in use. If I could improve on it, I would prefer the manufacturer find a way to design the inside to be less obstructive to the 7 wires that have to pass through the middle. I use heavily insulated 7-wire harness, and had a difficult time squeezing everything in to the provided space. All said and done, very happy with the product and I do play on purchasing again next time I need another. I would recommend this to any professional installer. My application is 5 different trailers that include surge and electric brake assemblies in a fresh water marine environment on multiple types of vehicles. This produced is plugged and unplugged almost every day.

Great place for any trailer needs. They alway gave what I want at a good price and fast shipping.

Just what we needed to make a custom harness for our boat trailers that we often tow with light and medium-duty wreckers. No more zip-typing our wireless drag lights to the trailers! Thanks, guys!
