Question:

I want to connect the electrical plug from a 2008 Lance model 998 cab over camper to my 2026 Ram 3500. Do you have anything that will accomplish this? Thank you,

Thanks for all the information Lou. I have a solution for you but there isn't a simple 7-way adapter that is compatible with Lance's proprietary 6-pin plug. What I recommend doing is replacing your Lance 6-pin connector and rewiring it into our etrailer Trailer Wiring 7-Way Upgrade Kit w/ Junction Box and RV Style Connector item # e99011. This will ensure your Lance camper has a common electrical connection.

The etrailer item # e99011 includes a 6' long 7-way cable and a convenient weather proof junction box. You'll be able to use the junction box to rewire the Lance plug following the wiring orientation below:

Black Wire: 8 Gauge, 12-volt power
White Wire: 8 Gauge, Ground (-)
Green Wire: 14 Gauge, Running Lights
Red Wire: 16 Gauge, Left Turn Signal
Brown Wire: 16 Gauge, Right Turn Signal
Yellow Wire: 16 Gauge, Back-up Lights

The etrailer Trailer Wiring 7-Way Upgrade Kit w/ Junction Box item # e99011 is not labeled by function but the wire colors on the 7-Way do match up with the ones on the Lance 6-pin. The only one you won't use is the blue wire because you won't need a brake controller.

Do you need tie down anchors for your new Ram 3500? If so I would just need to know your truck's bed length, if you have running boards and how far they go back, and what kind of trailer hitch you have installed on it.
