Do All 7-Way Sockets Have Tab to Hole 7-Way Plug in Place
Updated 11/10/2020 | Published 11/06/2020 >
Question:
Having to replace socket on my F250 due to the center of the cover with the lug that engages the plug to hold it in broke out. I’m assuming all socket lids have a similar tab to engage the plug to prevent it from vibrating out, but I wanted to confirm before ordering.

Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes 7-ways have a tab built into the bottom of the lid that holds the 7-way plug into the socket. This is true for the # R7CB that you mentioned as well.
