Question:
I purchased Hopkins towed vehicle wiring kitinch #56200 which has a 3 wire connector, brown, green, yellow plus white ground. How do I attach this to the Blue Ox 6-Pole, Round Pin, Trailer Wiring Socket - Vehicle End Item # BX294-0902 ?

If you cut off the 4-way of the # HM56200 that you have and wanted to wire it to the Blue Ox Connector part # BX294-0902 you'd need to use the attached picture as a guide to get all of the functions correct.

What are the black wires in the picture. The original poster had a 4 way plug with white, brown, yellow and green. Thanks for your help.
