The CURT wiring harness appears to be correct, but I have not installed it yet. I will provide more details after I install this harness. I think that the 7 foot length will be just right for the truck, but I will know more once I install it.

The pins on this didn’t like to make contact with my trailer connector. The trailer is brand new. I had to do some tweaking to get it to work right.

Oh no! I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you. If anything is missing we will replace it .

Worked as decribed, and was plug and play. Throw the hardware they provide out and replace with S.S. hardware.

2006 Dodge Ram Pickup

This product worked at first. Then, my lights on my trailer did not work when they were plugged in as usual. This product is an in bed wiring connector so you don't have to hang your goose-neck light wiring over the tail gate. I traced the problem to the Curt harness. I have since unplugged the Curt harness and hooked up the OEM light harness on the truck. And, subsequently have been hanging my lights over the tailgate and no problems with the trailer lights. (It was the Curt harness not the trailer lights).



by:

I like the simplicity of install with the plug and play wiring harness but the trailer plug itself where are you plug in your trailer is lacking, when trailer plugged in fit is very sloppy and trailer loses connection often, which is very sketchy when towing my 40 foot, 20,000 pound fifth wheel that you rely on the trailer brakes for stopping



by:

Was a very easy install, only hiccup was no right hand signal or brake light. Called trailer's and they clued me on the right side was the brown wire. Worked the ends of the brown wire and found the end that plugs to the truck power was loose, with some pushing it clicked in and now works great. Would definitely recommend this product and etrailer. Bought this to bring my 5th wheel plug into the bed.



by:
2007 Dodge Ram Pickup

Parts just arrived. All in excellent condition. The greatest part is the excellent installation instruction videos available on line. I am beginning the installation of 5th wheel hitch, this wiring harness and a Curt trailer brake controller. The video for the controller showed me where to find the OEM plug which was taped up behind the wiring harness bundle under the dash that would have been impossible to find otherwise. Other companies may have the same parts but etrailer also educates. Absolutely, far and away the best!!

Dodge Ram Pickup

We received the 5th Wheel / Gooseneck harness to work with our existing Dodge Ram 3500 trailer hitch wiring group with no problems. The assembly was installed and tested within 30 minutes and everything worked as it was supposed to. I felt the product and service I received was extremely well done and I would recommend eTrailer and there products to anyone. Thanks again - problem solved!

The 7 pole connector wire harness worked great. It was heavy duty and well built. The only thing that could have been better was the plugs. I have a 1999 Dodge truck and the plugs fit perfect however they do not "Clip" in. I had to tape them. Other than that I am pleased.

Great product (Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole ). Great service.
Easy installation
great instructions with pictures
Super fast shipping
Great customer service
Will definitely recommend to friends and family

1998 Dodge Ram Pickup

This harness makes for a quick and easy installation, I actually have two of these hooked up on my truck, one for the receiver and one ran into the sidewall of the bed for the goose neck. Good quality build with every thing sealed as it should be.



by:
2001 Dodge Ram Pickup

Very happy with this. I read people saying it was too long but on my 01 short bed dodge it was perfect length to put it in the tailgate post. Wire, plugs and heat shrink all good quality. Only thing really needed is s drill, self tapper bit and a 2-1/8 hole saw. Installation time for me was less than an hour.



by:
2007 Dodge Ram Pickup

Installed in less than hour. Perfect fit. Only negative, too much cable depending on installation location., would be nice to offer a long and short version. Certainly not a functional issue. Recommend this product. Etrailer service was excellent, very much appreciate the videos and accompanying documentation.



by:
2008 Dodge Ram Pickup

I was happy with the transaction with etrailer. The website was very helpful in finding what I needed. The product was received ahead of the committed date. The only problem was with the packaging. Some of the boxes were pretty beat-up and the parts were scratched with the finish damaged. That was a little disappointing.



by:
2008 Ram 2500

I have not had a chance to install this product yet I have only compared the two harness for likeness, but it looks like it will be a direct plug and play into my 2008 dodge 2500 just as stated. The wires used look to be of good quality and it’s all nicely wrapped and taped in wire loom.



by:
2008 Dodge Ram Pickup

From what I can tell it seems to be a good product. The install was pretty straight forward and easy. The only complaint I have is that one of the plugs would not lock in good. I just put a zip tie around it to ensure connection wouldn't be lost during road conditions.



by:

Excellent will buy from trailer again

by:

This product is exactly what it says it is any body can do this on there truck in less than a hour I am very pleased with this product my customer was very happy with it he ain't never used a bed plug before and had bumper plug for his gooseneck he was pleased



by:

The shipping estimate was perfect and delivered on time. Haven’t had the opportunity to tow with it yet, but the hitch came with minor scratches and small dents due to shipping. Definitely would still recommend.



by:
2008 Dodge Ram Pickup

Awesome product. Took me longer to find my hole saw in the garage than it did to instal the harness. Took less than 20 minutes



by:

Easy...great wiring solution to connect existing tow package wiring to accommodate camper or fifth wheel.

Good quality product easy to install. Just purchased a new fifth wheel trailer and brought it home yesterday.

  • Which B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch Fits A 2007 Dodge Ram Mega Cab?
    The B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs # BWGNRK1308 you mentioned is currently the only B&W Gooseneck Hitch that is confirmed to fit your 2007 Dodge Ram Mega Cab. This hitch will allow you to tow a gooseneck trailer via the included gooseneck ball, but since Mega Cab trucks all have a 6-1/2' bed you will likely need the 4" Offset Ball # BWGNXA4085 to give you more turning clearance. In addition you can also tow a 5th wheel trailer...

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for a Curt Double Lock Underbed Gooseneck Hitch
    I have a solution for you but since you have the Curt Double Lock Underbed Gooseneck Hitch item # C607-661 installed you can't add the Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit item # C16420-204. Instead you will need the Curt X5 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter for Curt Double Lock Gooseneck Trailer Hitches item # C16210. This adapter will drop right down into your Double Lock's gooseneck receiver and provide you with a set of industry standard base rails. This adapter is made in the USA, has...

    Sounds like you have blown some fuses or relays on your 2005 Dodge Ram and that is why only certain circuits work after the install of the # C56071. Check the owners manual and look for all of the towing related fuses and replace as necessary. You might try checking all of the circuits with a circuit tester liker part # PTW2993 on the 7-way to make sure that the problem is on the vehicle side of the equation. It could be that the 7-way is functioning properly and the light assemblies...

  • Recommended Turnover Ball System for a 2009 Dodge Ram 3500
    The B&W Turnoverball item # BWGNRK1308 will fit your 2009 Dodge Ram 3500 Diesel if you have a mega cab. If your Ram 3500 doesn't have a mega cab then you will need the B&W item # BWGNRK1313 which fits the 6-1/2' and 8' bed lengths. I have linked a couple of installation videos below. To make towing with a gooseneck trailer easier I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector item # C56071.

  • Will Curt E16 5th Wheel Hitch and Universal Install Kit Fit a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 Short Bed
    Curt 5th wheel hitch and universal installation kit # C16116 will fit your 1997 Dodge Ram. But since you have a short bed I recommend the slider version, # C16616, so you will have more clearance when making turns while towing. If your truck has the factory 7-Way connector at the bumper you can add an in-bed harness # C56071, that will plug in line with the factory 7-Way. This allows you to have 2 functioning 7-Ways without the need of an extension. If you want to use an extension though...

    Not all rails will work with every bracket kit so I would really need to know the model number of the rails that you have to confirm that the brackets will fit. I recommend going with the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50140-58, which would be the rails, brackets, and hardware all in one kit so that we know everything will be compatible. You could try purchasing just the brackets and hardware with part # RP50140, but there's no...

  • Adding a 7-Way Trailer Connector to the Bed of a 1997 Ford F-350 for a 5th Wheel Trailer
    We do have the parts needed to add a 7-Way trailer connector to the bed of your 1997 Ford F-350. To determine exactly what you will need we have to first look at what type of trailer connector, if any, is on your truck. If it came with a factory installed 7-Way at the bumper check to see if you can unplug a round connector from the back of the 7-Way socket. There may be some locking tabs that you have to disengage to disconnect it. If it is set up that way and the connector is round you...

  • Gooseneck Hitch and Air Helper Springs Recommendations for a 2004 Dodge Ram 2500
    I have a Curt gooseneck hitch that will work with the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Springs, # F2299, on your 2004 Dodge Ram 2500, but the Curt installation kit, # C60661, will not fit on your truck. This kit was designed for 2011 and newer Ram trucks. For your truck, I recommend looking at the Curt EZr Double Lock Gooseneck Hitch, part # C60682, because the custom frame brackets mount on the outside of your frame, away from the frame bracket for the Firestone kit.

  • 5th Wheel/Gooseneck In-Bed Trailer Wiring for a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500
    Take a look at the back of the trailer connector on your 2006 Dodge Ram 2500. If the connecter that plugs into the back of it is square/rectangular then # C56071 will fit. All of the 5th wheel/gooseneck in-bed harnesses have square plugs for this truck. Take a look at the video I have linked showing installation of a similar harness. If the connector that plugs into the back is round then you would likely need # 54701-007.

  • Connecting Aftermarket Brake Controller to Curt 5th Wheel Harness on 1997 Dodge Ram 3500
    Since you have the factory tow package you should be able to simply plug the aftermarket brake controller into the factory connector. The connector is usually located under the dash near the emergency brake pedal. If you have a 4 way connector at the rear of your Ram you will want to add a 7 way. You will need the Hopkins Adapter 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole # 37185 to complete your wiring. The blue brake wire will not run all the way back to the 4-pole at the rear; it stops at the connector...

  • Gooseneck Trailer Wiring Harness for 1995 Dodge Ram 2500
    Due to the age of the truck, neither Curt nor Tow Ready have a listing for the vehicle, but there are only two possibilities. The wiring harness that plugs into the rear of your OEM 7-way should have either a rectangular or a round connector on it. If it is rectangular, use the # C56071 you mentioned. If instead, your 7-way uses a round connector, use part # C56070. I have provided a photo showing both styles of connectors side-by-side. I have linked you to install details.

For your 2500 there are only universal options available. This means that the correct base rail kit for your pickup is the Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit # RP30035.

    I have bad news and good news for you. The bad news is that you won't be able to install typical 5th wheel rails in the bed of your 2007 Dodge Ram Pickup because the brackets from the B&W gooseneck hitch use the same mounting locations. The good news is that we have adapters that you can use to get around this. If you already have a 5th wheel hitch that is compatible with industry standard base rails then all you need is the Demco 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter # DM6140. This installs in...

I also recommend adding the 7 way mounting bracket # 18138 if you're not mountin this in the truck bed, so that it doesn't just hang at the rear of your vehicle. If you also need a brake controller, I recommend using the Tekonsha Primus IQ # TK90160 and adapter plug # 3020-P which gives you a plug...
