Question:
Thank you for your quick response. One other question. Could I also use the multi-tow trailer connector (HM47570) to do the same thing. I already have a 7-pin to 4-pin converted (PK12716) that I use for hooking up a trailer. Could I hook both up then to the multi-tow connector and use it simultaneously or will it only allow one of the connections at a time?

Helpful Expert Reply:
The green wire of the 4-way connector you sent in a picture of is the right turn/stop circuit, the yellow is left turn/stop, brown is running light, and white is ground. You could use the # 18252 to easily splice into the circuits as well to make an additional connector.
