How to Tell if Trailer Has 6-Way or 7-Way Installed
Question:
Hi guys, how can i tell what my trailer config is? I have a boat trailer with electric brakes, using a 6 pin round connector. I want to ensure that i order the correct adapter.

Expert Reply:
It sounds like you have a 7-way blade connector on your boat trailer as that is a very common connector on boat styles. This connector has 6 pins around the outside of the connector and a center pin for a total of 7.
Part # A7WCB would be what a 7-way would look like. If you had a 6-way it would look like part # PK11604.
