Question:
Need some help adding reverse lights to a 7 pin hooking up to a 2016 Dodge Ram 2500
asked by: Scott
Expert Reply:
The middle pin on a 7-way trailer connector such as the Pollak Black Plastic, 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector - Trailer End # PK12706 is going to be the reverse light circuit. Or you can use the Mighty Cord 7-Way RV-Style Trailer Connector w/ Molded Cable - Trailer End - 6' Long # A10-7W6 and in the case of this connector it will be the yellow wire which you connect your reverse light wiring to. All you need is Heat Shrink Butt Connector # DW05745-5.
I have added a link to a help article on trailer wiring which I strongly recommend reading.
