Best 7-Way To 5-Way Trailer Adapter For a 2019 Ram 1500 Pulling Boat Trailer With Electric Lockout
Updated 02/15/2022 | Published 02/14/2022 >
Question:
Hello - I have a 2019 Ram 1500 new body with the factory towing plugs 4 pin straight and 7 pin round I think. My boat trailer is a 5 pin straight which is needed because it has surge brakes and one of the pins is so that I can reverse without having to get in and out of the truck. What adapter should I purchase? Thank you

I recommend the Reese Trailer Connector Adapter w/ LED Circuit Tester and Dust Cover # 78118. This is one of the only adapters for your 7-way to 5-way that has the led test lights. This will help you troubleshoot issues that you may have with the trailer lights.
