• Troubleshooting Running Lights Not Working On 5TH Wheel Camper When Connected To 2013 Ford F-250
  First if you are using a connector like the Hopkins Endurance 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness # 41157, try connecting to the bumper connection to determine if the Connector # A10-7072VP in the bed side is bad. You can also remove the additional harness by connecting the factory harness directly to the rear bumper connection to determine if the harness itself is bad. If those tests fail or you do not have the harness to begin with, you will want to remove the factory connector...

• 7-Way and Brake Controller Install Info for 2018 Chevy Express Van
  Since your 2018 Chevy Express Van has a round connector present under the rear of it for a 7-way like the part # A10-7072VP to plug into you do have the tow package. Vehicles like yours with the 7-Way tow package have the blue output brake wire already ran from the back to the front. It is located under the dash near the emergency brake pedal. Some models will have the connection wiring taped and tucked under the driver side floor mat up towards the firewall. Next, for a wiring kit to...

• Trailer Connector Recommendation and Install on 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  Since your Grand Cherokee has the US car connector under and behind the rear bumper (see photo), you'll just need part # C55774 which installs as shown in the video I've linked. This connector provides both the 4-pole and the 7-way trailer connector. According to Curt, in some instances the vehicle's computer will need to be flashed at the dealership in order to fully activate the tow package. If your trailer has electric brakes and you want them to actuate you'll need a brake controller...

• Comparing the Pins Inside the Hopkins and Bargman 7-Way Trailer Connectors
  Yes, the Hopkins 7-Way RV Style Connector part # H20046 and the Bargman 7-Way RV Style Connector part # WG54006-046 will both fit the same 7-way blade style RV trailer connector like the Replacement 7-Way RV-Style Trailer Connector part # A10-7072VP. The design of the the center pin is slightly different as your mentioned but this will have no effect whatsoever on it's compatibility. Therefore, so long as the 7-way has blade style pins which is standard for RV's then they can be swapped...

• Troubleshooting 'Trailer Disconnected' Error Message on 2016 Ram 3500 Dash Display
  If your Ram's dashboard display is telling you your trailer is disconnected, and this message comes on and goes off as you drive, the issue is most likely to be corrosion in either the vehicle socket and/or the trailer plug. Something is interrupting the connection of the trailer brake circuit and this is generating the error messages. Please refer to the linked photo to see the trailer plug contact that handles the brake circuit. Inspect both the vehicle socket and trailer plug for signs...

• Troubleshooting Issues with 2012 VW Touareg 7 Pin Trailer Connector
  If your trailer or tester utilize LED lights that is likely the issue. The factory 7-way on your 2012 VW Touareg wasn't designed to function with LED's without the adapter # C57003 which has integrated load resistors to allow LED's to not trigger lamp out sensors. This also helps with the emergency flashers. If your trailer and tester are not LED, then you may have an internal issue with your 7-way and you can use either # A10-7072VP or # HM40975 to replace it. Before replacing, I...

• Troubleshooting Trailer Running Lamps that Flicker When Parked
  All the # C35FR adapter does is add a little bit of a load to the lighting circuits to prevent the bulb-out light or warning from going off, it won't solve the issue you describe. What could be happening is that the trailer connector on the vehicle or on the trailer has some corrosion built up on the pins/sockets that power the 12-v circuit and the running lamp circuit which would make sense as the pins are adjacent in the trailer connector. At a certain point once the corrosion gets severe...

• Installing 7-Way Trailer Connector on 2017 Jeep Cherokee
  I'm assuming that your 2017 Jeep Cherokee isn't equipped with the factory tow package. To install a 7-way trailer connector, the route you'd choose will depend on your desired outcome. As a starting point, you'll need the functional 4-pole trailer connector provided by part # 118605. If your trailer does not have brakes, and you don't need the 12-v feed to the trailer to be functional, you can just use the # 37185 4-pole to 7-way adapter. You'll plug the adapter into the 4-pole provided...

• Troubleshooting 7-way Installation That Blows 12V Power Fuse Without Trailer Connected
  The most likely cause for your Sienna to blow the fuse on your +12V auxiliary trailer power feed is a short somewhere in that circuit. The short could be caused by a wire that rubs on the frame and that has damage to its insulation or even by corrosion inside the 7-way trailer socket. If the wiring is new then it is more likely to be a short from a pinched wire but if the wiring has been in place on the Sienna for some years then it may be a corrosion issue. Trailer connectors, including...

• Replacement Trailer Connector 2018 Chevy Suburban
  I believe the 2017 Suburban came with a twist-in 7-way connector like part # PK11916. If it did use a twist-in connector, there will be a locking tab just to the left of the connector as shown in the provided photo. Push in on the tab with a small screwdriver, and the connector will pull free once it's unplugged at the rear. If it doesn't use a twist-in connector, use # A10-7072VP. There should already be a wiring pigtail in place that's plugged into the rear of the existing 7-way, or...

• Hitch and Wiring For 2017 Chevy Express Van Cab and Chassis Cutaway
  I recommend the Buyers Products hitch part # 3371801102 which is the only fit the cab and chassis Chevy Express van. This will give you a 2" hitch on the van with a 12000 lb towing capacity. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C15320 is a fit for the passenger van. For the wiring, you'll need part # A10-7072VP if the Chevy Express has a factory tow package. If it doesn't have a factory tow package, you'll need part # 118392 which is a 4-pole flat. If you need a 7-way you'll have to...

• Troubleshooting No Running Light Signal on Factory 7-Way on 2013 Dodge Ram 2500
  If the 7-way trailer socket pin for running lights on your Dodge 2500, the one at the 11:00 position as you look at the socket, has no signal and you have already checked the related vehicle fuse 29 (a 20-amp yellow) for that function then I suggest you test the wiring leading to it to find the point where the signal is lost. Apply your tester, one like # PTW2993, to the wiring that leads to the connector and move forward until you find the point where the running light signal is present....

• Help Finding 7-Way Socket for 2011 Ford Van
  Your van most likely has the 7-way connector/harness at the rear of it but you'd need to get up behind the rear bumper and look for a round connector that a socket like part # A10-7072VP could plug into. If that's not there you could contact a Ford dealer to see about getting that intermediate harness you would be missing. Then you can use factory brake controller harnesses like what you referenced with the part # 3034-P with a controller like the # TK63VR.

• Troubleshooting Stop Turn Circuit of 2014 GMC Yukon XL Trailer Wiring Not Functioning
  First thing I'd check is for a blown fuse under you hood. That's the most common issue that kills a trailer wiring circuit and is very easy to fix. Next possibility is corrosion on the pins of the trailer wiring. To fix that take some sandpaper to all of the pins on your 7-way. If the 7-way is looking pretty rough it might be best to replace it with a new one like the # A10-7072VP and you'd have an all new connector. Aside from that you'd have to trace wires to see where the issue might...

• Trailer Hitch For 2018 Lincoln MKT For Towing a 4,000 Lb Trailer
  I was able to confirm that the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 75679 is a fit for the 2019 Lincoln MKT which is the only option. It is a great option with a custom fit design that does not require drilling into the frame of the Lincoln MKT. This will give a 2" receiver on the Lincoln that can tow 4,000 lbs however you do want to check the owner's manual to make sure you can tow 4,000 lbs safely. For the trailer wiring, I recommend 7-way plug part # A10-7072VP which will...

• What Would Cause 7-Way Trailer Connectors on Truck and Trailer to Melt When Connected
  Sounds like you had a massive short to ground on the 12 volt accessory circuit of the trailer wiring. This circuit is in the 1:00 position of the female connector on the truck. The ground circuit is in the position opposite of this in the 7:00 position. My guess is there was exposed wire on the trailer side between these two circuits and they touched which caused the problem. For a new 7-way kit for the trailer you'd want the part # HS381-9000 and then for a new 7-way for the truck you'd...
