7-Way Blade to 6-Way Round Coiled Cable For Connecting a Motorhome To a Flat Towed Vehicle
Question:
I have a 7 blade connector on my motorhome with the 12V power on the 1 oclock position. My tow car has a 6 pin round. Can I buy a long coil electrical cable with those ends? Is there 7 blade to 6 pin round converter? How does the adapter hold onto the cable end- to prevent it pulling out

Expert Reply:
The Hopkins Endurance Flex-Coil Trailer Connector Adapter # HM47053 has the 7-way blade connector on one end and 6-pin round connector on the other. This cable is 8' long and coiled to reduce the chances of it dragging on the ground between your motorhome and car being flat towed. You will not need any converters as your motorhome having a 7-way has already combined the turn signals and brake lights in the 7-way.
The cord is held in place by the covers on the 7-Way # HM48470 and 6-Way # PK12720. There are notches on the connectors which allow the lids to hold the connector in place when inserted.
