Video Transcript for Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2005 Chevrolet Silverado
Today on our 2005 Chevrolet Silverado crew cab, we're going to install part number 30955. This is a replacement multi-tow 7-way and 4-way trailer connector. We're going to replace the original 7-pole connector That came with the vehicle. This is how it came to us, so you can see that the connector has seen better days. To remove our 7-pole connector, there's a tab right here that we push down and pull out. Sometimes there may be a little gray tab or a lock that fits around this.
You just push down in the center of it and just push it out of the way, then put it back when you're done. We don't have that one, so we'll just push down on this tab and pull it apart. This is our new part that's going to replace the OEM connector. This will simply just plug right back in, like this. However, we're going to take this and route it down towards the bottom of our hitch, toward our pre-existing mounting bracket. This is the bracket that comes with the part.
However, we're going to use the pre-existing one. A good location for this if you wanted to install it, would be right here. It does come with the hardware to install the bracket. However, self-tacking screws will work best in this application here. Let's go ahead and route our wire harness down.
Before we add our new connector, we'll go ahead and put some dilectic grease on the contacts to help protect them. We're using part number 11755. Let's go ahead and route this through our bracket. We'll go ahead and make our connection. We'll just push the two together, make sure they line up OK, and squeeze them until they click. Now we'll use the hardware that comes with the kit, to attach our 7-pole to the bracket.
With our hardware loosely assembled, we'll go ahead and tighten it down, using a flat-blade screw driver. Typically, this star washer on the back will give enough grip; we don't need a wrench. If you do, a 3/8 will work just fine. We'll go ahead and route our wire harness up and out of the way, make sure it's safe and secure with some zip ties. Zip ties don't come with the kit, so you might want to go ahead and get extra long zip ties to go around the hitch. In just a few minutes we've got a new 7-pole connector plus a 4-pole connector installed on our truck. That will do it for our replacement multi-tow 7-way and 4-way trailer connector on our 2005 Chevrolet Silverado crew cab. .

etrailer had what we needed. At times it is not easy locating accessory parts on vehicles not factory installed. Easy to navigate site to find and compare the exact parts we were looking for.

Product was exactly what I was looking for and thanks to the hitch system previously purchased, it was fabricated for a perfect fit. Also, the first one that came in was busted up a little, etrailer immediately sent a new one out with no hassle. Great company.

Exact fit for my 06 GMC Sierra it took longer to get my spare tire down than to install the tow package. My spare was stuck.
by: Randall B.05/01/2017
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver was easy to install and has worked just fine in pulling my several trailers. For the price, an excellent deal. The 7-Way and 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness Connector by Hopkins was a disappointment because the cap that doubles as a dust cover and latch to the adapter has come off and missing after a few months. This cap is not replaceable, the whole connector would have to be replaced.
by: RL Adams06/20/2017
I installed this today. Took around 90 minutes but part of that was learning how to get the spare out of the way. I drilled two holes in the bottom of the bumper because of where I wanted the connector to be placed. All necessary hardware came with the unit. This was very easy to do after watching etrailer's How To video. Good job guys, great product.

2004 Chevrolet Silverado
Perfect! I used this on a single cab Chevy Silverado 1500. Plugged into factory trailer lights near spare tire, mounted it up, plugged in trailer and everything worked just like it should. My truck does not have a spare tire so I removed the spare tire keyhole mount and cut some of the bumper to fit the adapter. My truck did not require a ECM/PCM flash of any kind, although I hear some vehicles may have to.

by: Harold J.04/10/2014
Nice product ,Easy to install and then worked as supposed to . I installed in bumper as opposed to the add on bracket that came with it ,made for a easier way to plug in trailer cord.
by: Kevin07/26/2019
Cathy T. was very good help. She set me up with the correct parts for our 2001 Chevy so we can have a 7 prong plug in at the bumper and in the box.
We got rid of the cobbled up mess that started giving us trouble and now everything works great. The plug and play took me about 1 1/2 hours to complete. We will do business again if needed. Thanks again Cathy T. and etrailer!

I bought this 7 way trailer connector to replace a broken one on my 2006 Chevy 2500HD. It was an easy install and only took a few minutes to complete. I tested it with my trailer connected and all works fine.
The shipping was super fast.
Thanks , etrailer.

The product was an exact one-for-one replacement. However, I ended up having to replace the female connector due to corrosion. This took a bit of time. The result was all new connections that work fine. Thanks for all your assistance.

2007 Chevrolet Silverado
My 2007 Classic Silverado Crew Cab 4x4 did not have a factory hitch receiver, so I selected the 13322 Curt Hitch Receiver because it closely resembles the OEM hitch receiver and attaches to the bottom of the bumper. Installation was easy, as shown in the videos and described by other reviewers. All holes aligned perfectly. I did not remove the spare tire as it is not necessary. I used two jack stands to raise/support the receiver frame in place while I started the first bolts. I had the 22mm and 19mm sockets needed to tighten and torque the bolts/nuts. It looks great and I now am able to tow.
For the wiring I installed the 30955 Hopkins 7-Way and 4-Way Trailer Connectors to the bumper adjacent to the license plate. This required drilling a 2-1/8" hole in the bumper, which was time consuming, but it now resembles a factory installation. I was able to remove the license plate and connect to the factory plug.
I ordered these parts from etrailer for a number of reasons: 1) The website is intuitive and contains a tremendous amount of information for the person who is trying to research product information; 2) the selection and inventory is amazing; 3) the prices are very competitive – free shipping for orders over $99; and 4) the dedicated customer service is outstanding – the email communication is prompt. I ordered on a weekend and it was delivered by the following Friday.
A very positive first experience.
by: Pete N.04/22/2017
Unit worked well as advertised. Old connecter had to stay (was welded) so I mounted off center a foot away. Now it protrudes 2 inches.

I use it infrequently. When I do use it, it works well. It would not mount as per instruction because of the factory offered trail hitch assy. Looks catiwhompus but does the job.
by: Jeffrey03/22/2023
The male prongs on the plug on the wire end were too short and did not engage.
The lights would not work. I bought another brand plug that the prongs were longer on and it worked fine.

- Troubleshooting 7-way Connector On 2010 Chevrolet Silverado Has Power But Trailer Lights Don't WorkSince you mentioned the factory connector on your 2010 Chevrolet Silverado does have power, but it is not powering any lights when the connector of your trailer is plugged in it sounds like there is an issue with the connectors. I recommended checking both the vehicle and trailer connectors for any debris or yellow/green corrosion that could be causing the power to not make its way to the trailer lights. If you find corrosion, try to clean it out and test the lights again. It is possible...

It is one of our most popular controllers because it is easy to set up and use and it offers diagnostics. The P3, # 90195, is a great controller but is geared more towards individual with brake controller experience. It has a lot of diagnostics and features, though and would work well. Both controllers are compatible with electric trailer brake systems as well as electric over hydraulic systems. For your Yukon XL, you will...

It features an easy-to-read digital display, 3 boost settings, and continuous diagnostics that will alert you to any potential issues. This unit is well known for its reliability and ease of use.

view full answer... - Recommended 7-Way and 4-Way Combo Connector that Can Be Used at the Same Time Yes, it will! However, the Curt Replacement OEM USCAR Trailer Connector item # C42JR won't let you use both the 7-Way and the 4-Way at the same time. You will need to install the Multi-Tow 7-Way and 4-Way item # 30955 to use both at the same time. Both of these 7-way/4-way combos use the USCAR connector which is what all vehicle's that come with a 7-way connector from the factory use. I have linked an installation video we did to help you get the Multi-Tow 7-Way and 4-Way item # 30955 set up.
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Install 7-Way and 4-Way on 2013 Nissan Frontier without Trailer WiringThanks for the pictures of your 2013 Nissan Frontier. Based on what I can see you still need a 7-way kit like part # C56226 which comes with relays and connectors for the area you sent in a picture. I attached a picture that shows what the harness and relays look like installed. Now this kit comes with just a 7-way but if you wanted to convert it to a 7 and 4-way you are going to need to also get the part # 30955 and use the included connector of this kit instead of the 7-way.

- Replacement 7-Way and 4-Way for 2003 GMC Sierra With Factory Tow PackageSo it sounds like you spliced into the factory trailer wiring harness of your 2003 GMC Sierra's factory 7-way, or factory tow package harness. Doing that would cause the issues you are having so what you need to do is replace the harness with the Replacement Custom Multi-Tow 7-Way and 4-Way Trailer Connectors # 30955. This will work without anything else so long as you didn't try and splice into the wiring AFTER the truck's factory plug. If you spliced the wires after the plug you will...

- 2006 Hummer H3 Does Not Require a Converter or ModuliteYour vehicle does not require a converter or modulite. If your H3 has the tow package, you will use the Replacement Multi-Tow 7-Way and 4-Way Trailer Connectors for Ford, GM Trucks with Factory 7 Way, part # 30955. If you do not have the tow package, you will use the 4-Pole 60 inch Long Vehicle End, part # 18002 to hardwire a 4-pole into your vehicle.

The great thing about 7-way connectors is they basically all use the same round connector so this would easily fit in place of what you have. There isn't a plug in style adapter that could be inserted into a 7-way that would give both though.

If your Tahoe did not come with a factory 7-way connector the only option to add a 4-way flat is by using splice in style connector...

If you go over what it is rated for it will blow fuses and/or relays depending on how much you are over the rating. Using LED lights will help reduce the amount of draw on the system since they draw a fraction of the power of incandescent bulbs. You can look at how much power draw there will...

Or, if there is a bundle of wires you will need # HM40975 with wiring harness # PK11998. I have included links to videos that show installations of both of these connectors.

If your truck has a factory 7-way connector and your LED strip has a 4-flat connector, I recommend the Hopkins # 30955.

If your 2000 Sierra pickup has a 10-inch deep-drop bumper you can use Curt Class V hitch # C15317. If it has a standard or step bumper you can use Class V hitch # C15325. If your Sierra has a factory 7-way you can install a trailer brake controller like the Prodigy...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Motorhome 7-Way Trailer ConnectorI recommend checking your fuses on your motorhome first. If your fuses are good, then use a circuit tester like # PTW2992 to test the wiring. I recommend checking right behind the 7-way first as sometimes that connection goes bad or the inside of the trailer connector itself. Next trace the wiring as needed to find where the power for each function broke down.

This would connect at the closest factory connector and then T off to head to your bumper and your 2017 Ram's truck bed. If you didn't want to have the in bed connector you could just cap it off. If you did want it you will need the Pollak Replacement 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector Socket - Vehicle End item # PK11893.
