Converter to Keep Trailer's Independent Brake and Turn Signals
Updated 01/19/2021 | Published 01/15/2021
Question:
Do you have a wiring converter from a 4 wire vehicle to a 5 wire trailer where the turn signals on the 4 wire will operate the brake light on a five wire? My trailer has independent turn signals from the brake and would like to keep it that way. Thank you.

Ok, so we do have the converter you need for your trailer, though I'm not sure if by 5-wire you are referencing a 5-way on your trailer. If you DO have a 5-way on the trailer the first thing you will need to do is convert your vehicle 4-way to a 5-way with the Tow Ready 4 Pole to 5 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter # 20036.
Then you will simply need a converter, the Vehicle to Vehicle Tail Light Converter # 118158.
If both your trailer and vehicle have a 4-way, then you wouldn't need the 4 Pole to 5 Pole adapter, you would only need the converter. I have added links below to video reviews for you to check out as well if you'd like.
