Connecting Trailer Side Marker Lights to Trailer Wiring Harness

Updated 06/23/2016 | Published 06/21/2016

Question:

I have everything set up, lights mounted, wire running through the tongue. But I cant figure out where do I connect the black wire from the side markers. All I have coming from the wire harness is the brown, green and yellow wires. Where do I connect the black wires? Thanks

The marker lights would tie into the running light circuit, which is carried by the brown wire on the trailer wiring harness.

I've linked you to a trailer wiring diagram, and also to our trailer wiring FAQ article.
