Features to know about

Unbeatable Durability: Die-Cast Housing for Long-Lasting Use

When you're dealing with trailer connectors, durability is a must. The Pollak 6-Pole Trailer Wiring Connector comes with a robust die-cast housing that withstands the rigors of daily use, ensuring your connector performs flawlessly regardless of the weather conditions. Premium materials mean it’s built to last, cutting down on maintenance costs and offering peace of mind on every journey.

Streamlined Connectivity: Minimal Voltage Drop with Round Brass Pins

Worried about losing power during vital operations? The round, floating, solid brass terminal pins in the Pollak connector guarantee minimal voltage drop, ensuring reliable power transmission. This means your trailer lights and brakes will function smoothly, preventing any hiccups on the road and keeping your trips as secure as they are enjoyable.

Easy Handling in Every Scenario: Jumbo Finger-Pull Grips

Connecting and disconnecting trailer wiring can be a hassle, especially in less-than-ideal conditions. Luckily, the Pollak connector features jumbo finger-pull grips specifically designed to make handling quick and effortless. This thoughtful design means you’ll spend less time fumbling with the connector and more time focused on your drive, offering a seamless experience every time.

Resilient Against the Elements: Dielectric Grease Coating

The great outdoors can be hard on wiring connectors, but with a dielectric grease coating, this Pollak connector is ready for anything. The non-conducting grease protects against corrosion and electrical resistance, prolonging the life and safety of your connector. This provides peace of mind whether you're trekking through rain, dust, or snow.

Customize for Your Needs: Accepts Up to #12 Gauge Wires

Tailoring your trailer's electrical system is key to safe and efficient operation, and the ability to accept up to #12 gauge wires offers the flexibility you need. Whether you're retrofitting an old trailer or wiring up something new, this feature ensures that your setup can handle various electrical loads and configurations with ease.

Great product shipped fast and excellent service

The product came quickly and was exactly as advertised.



by:

Well-built and solid - an excellent replacement for an old and rusty plug. Thanks for the fast shipping!



by:

good quality but found letters telling you what wires go where are hard to read on this end its a little different style on the inside than i've seen before but appears to be good product.



by:

All parts delivered promptly and packaged securely. I will be mounting the 6-pin plastic wiring socket into the underside of my Honda Goldwing trunk and connecting the 6-pin connector to my Uni-Go single-wheel trailer.



by:

The person who helped me find the correct part went above and beyond just taking my order and helping me find the correct part. Now I know why my dad suggested that I try etrailer to find the part I needed.



by:

It’s nice to have an inexpensive replacement part rather than buying another whole harness!



by:

Perfect replacement



by:

All metal, great quality.



by:

I got exactly what I ordered, two replacement cable plugs for my tow bar from car to tow vehicle. Package included easy to follow instructions for wiring connections. The cable package from the tow bar company is pretty pricey but these plugs and the existing cable to repair cost around $10.00. I will probably order two more to have as spares.

Great Product, works well.



by:

These connectors were high quality by a known manufacturer. I could have bought them locally but I wouldn't have gotten the expert advice and detailed information that I was able to get from eTrailer!. I talked to several people and each one was very knowledgeable. When the parts arrived, it surprised me because they came so quickly! I would readily order from them again if I needed more trailer parts. I used these connectors to adapt a Minn-Kota trolling motor to my fishing kayak and have attached some pictures showing it installed.



by:

Easy to replace. Fast shipping! Thank y ou



by:

Great service



by:

Decided to make a spare pushbutton controller for my dump trailer so I wanted a good 6-pin connector that matched what I had. This was exactly what I needed. Good quality. Quick delivery. Good price. Had one hiccup with my credit card, and CSR's contacted me asap and got it all straightened out in no time. Would definitely order from etrailer again.



by:

I really appreciated the detail etrailer.com provided with each of their products. I was confident of what I was buying and that it would do what I needed to do. I will definitely be buying from them again in the future. Shipping was fair priced and very quick! Thanks a bunch, etrailer.com!! - Ryan

Received quickly. Easy replacement for my motorhome teather. Well made.

No problems. Working as designed.



by:

This connector was used to replace a similar no name Chinese knock-off that had corroded badly. Also, I no longer keep the trailer cable connected and left in the elements. Easy to disconnect both ends and store separately.



by:

Purchased some new LED lights for trailer. eTrailer has good prices and a good selection. Shipping was a bit slow but that may be be eTrailer's fault, we all know how the postal service works...or doesn't.

No reservations about re-ordering from this company, I like that George followed up with me afterward to make sure I'm satisfied.

Order with confidence!



by:

Works great, what I needed for the connection for my DC fuel pump to my fuel tank I carry in the bed of my truck. I have been a customer for a couple of years now and will continue to be as you always have everything I need then ship it out in a very timely matter.



by:

I replaced the connector ends on the cable that hooks from my motor home to my tow vehicle.
The PK11604 are better made product than the original connectors. A machine screw is used to hold the
Receptial in place as compared to the original which had a flush head wood screw. The terminal hold down screws are stronger and easy to work with when installing the wires.





by:

This item and the receiver were exactly what I was searching for. I have a motorcycle trike, with a matching motorcycle tow trailer. That is what these items were ordered for. Very happy with purchase and shipping.

  • Which Wire is the Ground Wire on Sundowner Horse Trailer 6-Way
    Between those two color choices the black one would most likely be the ground wire. However, if you hook it up with the black as the ground and it does not work I would recommend trying the red wire. Also, you should trace both of these wires back on the trailer to see where they terminate. The ground wire should be connected to the frame of your trailer. Whichever one connects to the frame is the ground. The ground wire should be wired to the 12 o clock position terminal on the Pollak...

    The white ground wire should attach to the pin on the vehicle 6-way connector that is located at the 2-oclock position. Please take a look at the photo provided; this is labelled to show to which pin the ground wire should attach. Since you have two white ground wires, it sounds like a second ground jumper wire has been added to provide a better ground connection. A ground jumper wire should connect on one end to the same spot on the frame as the main ground wire and the other end to another...

    The best tow dolly we offer is the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes part # RM-2050-1. Dolly includes all lightging as well for DOT compliance. The only thing one would need to use this dolly is a trailer connector like part # PK11604 for a 6-way or part # PK12706 for a 7-way. This dolly will accept a vehicle with a front track up to 76" wide which would seem to be a bit too narrow for your application. The dolly also only accepts wheel sizes from 12" - 16" therefore would also...

  • Running Lights On Trailer Stay On After Truck Is Turned Off
    Hello Timothy. There are many possible reasons why the running lights on your trailer stay on when your truck is off. The most common cause of this is a bad ground so double check to make sure your grounds are attached to completely bare metal surfaces and free of any paint, dirt or corrosion. Another possible cause is if your trailer has LED lights they can stay lit dimly. This is not uncommon for some LED lights and the only solution for this is to unplug the trailer.

    If you only want to use the basic lighting functions provided by the 4-Way (left/right turn, brake, and running lights) then all you will need to do is plug the 4-Way end of the Adapter 4 pole top 6 pole, # A10-6034VP, into your vehicle 4-Way. The trailer 6-Way will then plug into the 6-Way receptacle on the adapter. You will also need to ground the white wire on the adapter to the vehicle frame at a clean and corrosion free metal surface.

  • Why Do the Trailer Brakes Lock Up When 6-Way Connector Is Plugged Into Ford Truck
    A 6-Way round pole connector can be wired one of two ways; with the center pole as the 12 volt hot lead, or as the brake. Having the center pole as the 12 volt hot lead is probably most common. In your case, the 6-Way round connector on your Dodge is probably wired with the center pole as the brake lead. The Ford is probably wired with the center pole for the 12 volt power. When you plug in the connector to your trailer and the center is 12 volt power it is just going to lock up the brakes...

    From what I could find online it looks like you can flat tow your 2013 Suzuki Grand Vitara as long as it is a 4WD with a transfer switch. If it is a 4WD without a transfer switch then you need to use a trailer to keep all of the wheels off of the ground. For a 2WD you can tow it using a tow dolly with the rear wheels off of the ground. You will want to verify this and specific instructions in your copy of the owner's manual. If you have a 2WD then I recommend using the Roadmaster Tow Dolly...

    It sounds like you need to go from the 6-Pole, Round Pin Connector # PK11604 to a 5-Pole, Round Pin Socket # PK11502. This would require making an adapter using the 6-Pole, Round Pin Socket # PK12720 and 5-Pole, Round Pin Connector # PK11501. If I have this backwards then just use the other parts listed above.

    Assuming that the 7-way on the bumper is from the factory and the tow package harness can be unplugged from the rear of the connector, using a T-connector like # 41157 is what I'd recommend.

  • Wire Missing For 7-Way Trailer Side Connector
    I have attached the wiring diagrams for the different 7-way connectors used on trailers.

As the white wire is typical of a ground connection the person who wired the trailer the first time may have not used it hoping that the ball connection would provide the ground that they needed to the vehicle. You may need to replace the 7-way...

Use the set screw that you see in your picture as the "top" when comparing what you have to the wiring diagram.

Does the trailer have a breakaway battery at least? Most likely it does and that would be about the only thing that could power the taillights of the trailer. Best option would be to go over the wiring of the battery and see if there's anything obvious that would short it out to the taillights like cut or exposed wire caused by the squirrel.
