This is the product I expected and it arrived in factory new condition.
To no fault of etrailer.com the currier wagon train and the ox’en that pulled the load were heading East. This was not the direction they were accustomed to so it took a few extra days. All in all good job I will do more business with this company.

I wish than all trailer wiring was color coded the same. I have wired a lot of trucks ant trailers and trouble shot problems and always solved the problems. this one gave some serious thinking since the wiring was color coded different. But it is working and I do like the Pollak plug.

Installation was easy, good instructions. used this in conjunction with a Prodigy brake controller on a 1973 Chevy K20 square body pickup, replacing my original. wired using crimp on connectors, fast easy, clean. Re taped all connectors and loom. Used silicone on the back of the to seal off moisture.

After I received this item, it just sat on the shelf until I could find the time to install. I just review this and I find the 7-pin plug is missing. The mounting flange and wiring harness is there, but not the 7-pin plug.

Well you need the 7-pin plug! Let me get you over to our customer service department for them to get you this missing part.

This was a perfect replacement for an old worn out 7-pole connector on my motorhome. This unit has a heavy guage wiring harness with standard color coding for each wire. The socket has a sturdy spring loaded cover that should keep out water a dirt. The instruction sheet includes a wiring diagram. I like that the connector socket can be easily removed from the wiring harness if it ever needs replacement.

Chevrolet Silverado

Although parts have only been installed less than a week this was a direct replacement for my Chevy Silverado 1500hd harness and outlet. I relocated from the side of the receiver to the bumper. Everything is provided in the kit. I used different hardware due to installing through bumper and different butt connections with heat shrink tubing because this was one of my reasons for replacing, the other being corrosion in harness to socket.

Beware it took a week to get here from their warehouse 1 hrs away.

Fast we'll packed shipping no damage.lights work great on my featherlite trailer.



by:

Appears to be high quality connector! I like the fact that it comes apart so you can mock it up on your truck's bumper, frame, etc. and the connector is well made and even has a seal inside making it watertight. Glad i bought it! Istall appears to be very easy and the length is long enough to where you can have options during install.

I ORDERED A WIRING PLUG FOR MY 1989 CHEVY CAR HAULER AND IT WAS PROMPTLY FILLED AND SENT WITHIN DAYS TO MY HOME.

IT IS EXACTLY WHAT I ORDERED AND WAS THE SECOND ONE I ORDERED FROM ETRAILER.COM

THE OTHER WAS FOR MY DODGE PICK UP A COUPLE MONTHS PAST.

MAIL SERVICE HAS ALWAYS BEEN VERY PROMPT TO ME SINCE MY FIRST ORDER MANY MONTHS AGO.

WOULD RECOMMEND ETRAILER.COM TO ALL FOR PROMPT SERVICE AND QUALITY ITEMS!!

The Curt hitch was delivered on time and in good condition.I had prepped the threaded holes in the frame earlier,which made install easy.Took all of 15 minutes ! This is my second time using Curt hitches,the last one on our 2013 Honda CRV.Great installation video and instructions. Would purchase again . Thanks!!!!

by:
2007 Ford F-150

his is the product if you do not have the trailer package on your vehicle. The 07 F150 I bought does not have the trailer towing package so I could not buy the plug and play version of this. The wire length is good so that you can easily locate the socket and still reach the vehicle's wiring harness. The instructions were good but I had trouble finding the correct lead for +battery to hook up to. Great price and delivery from etrailer as always.



by:

This has worked great on my vehicle. I put a 30-Lb magnet on bracket and that gives me the flexibility to mover the connector when in use.

11/3/2020

Still working great. I like that it is hidden behind my bumper fascia until needed.



by:

I purchased this as a replacement for an identical wire harness already installed on my vehicle. Old harness was occassionally losing taillight/running lamps. Note that the new harness is the same make and model as old harness yet 2 wires are of different color (i.e. old + wire was red, new + wire is black)...so trace your wires carefully if performing a replacement.

Harness was received in just a few days and included all needed components for installation. I soldered and used heat shrink tubing on connections. The inclusion of waterproof butt connectors would be a good addition to this package instead of the included standard butt connectors.

I want to thank Molly for all the help for pk11898 I have not yet installed this harness planning to do so to day weather here in McKeesport has not been that good. Again thank you Molly for all your help you are a asset to the company.

Great product. Very Well made and more than enough wiring to complete the job.
2000 GMC pickup and the wiring had been cobbled up back to the trailer receptacle.
Only took about 30 minutes to complete the job. The instructions regarding matching up the wiring from the truck to the new wiring harness were concise and easy to follow.

Received precisely what I expected I was ordering. Looking forward to getting this installed.

Product was just what I was looking for.
I would like to say something more about the etrailer.com customer service if I may.
I received a call from Molly with etrailer letting me know there was a slight shipping delay of one of my items in my order so if I did need it right away I could make necessary changes. I would like to personally thank Molly and the team at etrailer for going that extra mile!



by:

A very good harness and it is working fine a year after I installed it, however, the mounting screws are rusting so the reason it did not get a five-star review is because in my opinion the mounting screws should’ve been stainless steel

Working great. Initial install required running at lest one wire from the distribution panel at the front of the PU to the back because Pick up was not originally wired for a 7 pole plug. Been doing its intended job.

  • Troubleshooting 7-Way Connector Not Working on a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500
    If your trailer is working properly with other vehicles then the problem is definitely on your 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500. The fuse that you referenced I believe is for the 12V power but I could be mistaken. I tried looking up the online owner's manual but it didn't really identify the various fuses with numbers. With that being said, the best place to start is right at the 7-Way connector on your Chevy. Using a circuit tester like part # PTW2991 or a multimeter like part # PTW1714 check...

    The item you selected, Curt Class III Round Tube Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # 13445, does not include a bracket for relocation of the 7-pin trailer connector. We sell all the parts you would need to replace the 7-pin trailer connector and mount it on the trailer hitch though. Start with the 6 and 7-Way Trailer Connector Mounting Box for Round Tube Hitches, part # 18159, then use a Pollak 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector Socket, # PK11898.

  • 5th Wheel Hitch for Clean Bed Once Removed on a 2003 Chevy Silverado 1500 Short Bed
    If you are wanting to keep the bed of your 2003 Chevy Silverado 1500 clean then I highly recommend using the B&W Companion # BWRVK3400-5W because it mounts in the B&W Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNRK1059-5W. Instead of having bed rails in the bed of your truck you just have the gooseneck hitch ball receiver and safety chain loops as you can see in the attached photo. The Companion is made right here in the USA, has a 20,000 lb weight capacity (which is more than your pickup), 17" - 19" of height...

    Yes, the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller # 90885 will work perfectly on your 2006 Chevy Silverado. The correct Plug-In Harness to install the unit on your truck is the part # 3015-P. If your Silverado has the factory 7-Way connector this is all you need. If your truck doesn't already have a factory 7-Way then you will also need to add the Pollak 7-Pole # PK11898 if there is a bundle of factory wires above the spare tire or # 30955 if there is a round plug there instead....

  • Parts Needed To Go From a 3-Wire to a 2-Wire On a RV Motorhome With a 7-Way Installed
    As your motorhome already has a 7-Way # PK11898 it will likely already have a converter on the motorhome. I have included a image of the pinout on a 7-way so you can verify if the tail lights are already converted. A Test Light # PTW2993 can be used to test the wiring. If you determine the lights are still separated I recommend installing the Upgraded Heavy Duty ModuLite Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # C59496 before the 7-way. This will get you to a standard 7-way wiring so...

    I have a solution for you, but we aren't going to have any 7 way connections and junction boxes that are wired with the same color wires/pin locations as the traditional wiring setups you're looking for. I recommend using the 7 way connector # A7WCB and hard wiring your plug the way you want it setup. You can get wire by the foot (12 gauge) # 12-1-1 or (10 gauge) # 10-1-1 and a Trailer Wiring Junction Box # 3375601100 to finish off this project. This will allow you to use the proper gauge...

    You could use the 7-Way Pre-Wired Car Connector, # 20023, and hardwire it by function into the existing 4-flat wiring. You will need a circuit tester like # ALL640595 to find the wire functions. If your 1999 Chevy Silverado has the round plug with a cap above the spare tire, you can use Replacement Multi-Tow 7-Way and 4-Way Trailer Connectors, # 30955. This connector will plug into the factory connector. You could then route the harness up inside the side of the bed and drill a hole to...
