• Location of Fuse that Controls Trailer Lighting on 2013 Ram Diesel
  If the trailer lamps aren't working, you'll first want to determine if the cause is with the vehicle or with the trailer. Use a circuit tester like # 40376 to check the pins on the trailer connector while somebody activates each lighting function. If you get signal on the pins, then the problem lies with the trailer, and not the vehicle. With no signal at the pins, then unplug the wiring harness from the rear of the 7-way trailer connector, and test the pins on the socket. If you get signal...

• Installing Hitch, Brake Controller and 7-Way Trailer Connector on 2018 Dodge Durango
  Lets begin with the hitch. As you don't care to mess with removing the bumper cover/rear fascia I'd recommend the etrailer brand Class III hitch, part # e98901 which is rated for 6000lbs towing/600lbs tongue weight. The installation won't require removing the bumper cover or fascia, but if your Durango is an RT model with dual exhaust, you might need to so some trimming on the heat shield and fascia. The hitch will fit models with an 18" or smaller spare tire under vehicle; larger spare...

• Recommended 4 & 7-Way Wiring Harness for a 2012 Chevrolet Express Van
  Good news, I can help! It sounds like your 2012 Chevrolet Express Van didn't come with the tow package. This means that there isn't a OEM factory plug for the # HM40975-11933 to plug into. If your Express Van had been built with the tow package there will be a plug at the back of the vehicle where, yes, the Hopkins 4 & 7-way plug will just simply plug into. Don't worry, if your van didn't come with the tow package, I can help you wire it up to have a 4 & 7-way plug like the Hopkins...

• Recommended Trailer Hitch and 7-Way Wiring for 2021 Chrysler Pacifica Limited
  It sounds like your ultimate goal is to have a trailer hitch receiver and a 7-way on your 2021 Chrysler Pacifica. I will start by addressing the # HM40975-11933. This adapter is not confirmed to fit your vehicle so it is not something you would want to use even though the bracket would fit the hitch mounting point. The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76046 is a great choice for your Pacifica. You mentioned it was a round hitch, but that won't make a difference aside from the...

• Replacement Trailer Connector for 2007 Dodge Ram Cab and Chassis and How to Wire in Camper Lights
  First, if your 2007 Dodge Ram cab and chassis model came with a factory installed 4/7-Way then you can use # HM40975-11933 to replace it. It plugs into the factory wiring harness under the truck. What I would do is to wire the camper light wires to either a trailer side 4-Way or 7-Way connector, depending on what all functions are needed, and plug that into the trucks trailer connector instead of hardwiring it in. For a 4-Way you can use # HM48110. White is ground, brow is running lights,...

• Recommended Trailer Wiring For 2003 Jeep TJ
  If you do not have a 4-way harness on your TJ, I first recommend the T-One Wiring Harness, part # 118409. This is an easy installation. You just find the connection points beneath the rear bumper. For a 7-way connector you will need part # ETBC7. Usually, a 7-way connector is used because the trailer has brakes. If that is the case then you may be interested in a brake controller like part # 90885. This is our most popular brake controller because it is easy to install and operate. I...

• Compatibility of Hopkins HM42190 With 2016 Jeep Wrangler with Tow Package
  Since your 2016 Wrangler Unlimited has the factory tow package, you should be able to plug the # HM42190 right in. To confirm, you'll want to follow the wire feeding your 4 pole under the vehicle to where it plugs into the tow package harness. If that plugs into a rectangular connector, you'll simply unplug that connection, and plug the rectangular connector on the # HM42190 into it. If you wanted both a 4 pole and a 7-way, you could use part # HM40975-11933 which would install the same...

• Trailer Brakes Activating With Brake Pedal Is Pressed With No Brake Controller Installed
  If you're getting voltage to the trailer brakes with no controller installed, and when it WAS connected it wasn't reading the brakes, it sounds like your trailer connector on the vehicle is either damaged or has had corrosion spread to the terminals inside where the wires attach. Once the terminals corrode, the corrosion builds up can can actually allow adjacent circuits to bridge which would explain why you get brakes without a controller installed. It's possible that the brake lamp circuit...

  Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13432 that you referenced is confirmed to fit all models of the 2013 Jeep Wrangler that has the standard rear bumper. Please note that if there are obstructions on the cross member, such as excess welding, will need to be removed for installation.

A great ball mount and hitch ball option is the etrailer.com 2-3/4" Rise or 4" Drop Ball...

• Adapter to Go From 4-Way Vehicle Connector to European 13 Pin
  Unfortunately we do not have an adapter to go from a European 13-way trailer connector to a U.S. style 4-way vehicle connector. European trailers typically have separate brake light and turn signal circuits, but U.S. trailers use a combined wiring system that use one wire for the turn signals and brake lights. You could make an adapter using a universal 4-way flat tail light converter like part # 119130, but you would need to find a European trailer side 13-way connector that can be rewired....

• Troubleshooting 7-way Trailer Connector on 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  The existing turn signal/brake lamp circuits are already converted, so you shouldn't need an additional converter. I'd recommend checking the fuse box under the dash and in the engine compartment, and locating the right and left trailer turn signal/brake lamp fuses, to make sure they're installed and not blown. Replace as needed. I'd also closely examine the pins on the 7-way for corrosion. If you see any green or white corrosion on the pins, the corrosion could have spread inside the...

• Trailer Wiring Recommendation For 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  The Pollak 7-Way part # HM40975-11933 is a fit for your 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee and would plug into a square connector at the rear of the vehicle. Most likely it's the connector you found already based on what you described. You might test the pins of the connector you found with a circuit tester like part # PTW2993. If they are active when vehicle taillight signals are on then this will work. If instead you do not have the tow package wiring complete the T-one kit part # 118727 would...

  Great question and no there is no additional modifications to install the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" Item # C13171 on a 2016 Jeep Cherokee with dual exhaust. It may make it a little easier to lower the exhaust by removing the bolts that hold the hangers in place. It will provide a little extra room for installing the hardware.

• How to Add 7 Way Connector to 2011 Dodge Dakota with 4 Way Factory Plug
  The 2011 Dodge Dakota came with a factory 7 way, so it's possible that you potentially had the 4 way installed aftermarket- but I have a way you can check. If your 4 way is plugged into a square plug similar to the one shown in the attached picture, you can use the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket w/ Mounting Bracket, Chrysler/Dodge OEM Plug Adapter # HM40975-11933 which will leave you with an active 4 way and also add a 7 way connector to your factory wiring. If your 4 way isn't...

• Recommended Trailer Hitch Wiring And Components For 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk
  For your 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13171 over the OEM hitch you mention if you don't already have it. This is based not only on price point, but ease of installation and capacity ratings. For a wiring harness, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118605 if you don't have the factory tow package. This harness connects to your factory connectors located behind the...

• Availability of Dodge Adapter Harness to Move 7-Way from Rear of Truck with Square Connector
  I believe we have exactly what you are looking for. The Hopkins 7-Way Harness part # HM42137 is a kit that plugs into the square connectors of your truck and allows you to install a second 7-way elsewhere in the truck bed. Typically this is installed up near the wheel well for gooseneck or fifth wheel applications. The harness is a bit longer than you need at 10 feet but would still work well.

• 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Trailer Wiring Recommendation
  If your 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK has the factory tow package it would have a square connector at the rear of it for attaching trailer wiring to. For that we have the Pollak 7 and 4-way kit part # HM40975-11933 which will plug right in and be functional. The 4-way kit part # 118416 that you referenced is for versions of the vehicle that do not have the tow package, but it can fit on either style of vehicle as it installs by plugging in line with the taillight connectors on the vehicle.

• Troubleshooting Tandem Axle Trailer Brakes
  Many brake controllers are rated for 2-8 brake assemblies, which would be 1-4 axles. In any event, I've yet to see the brake controller that shouldn't work fine with a tandem axle trailer using 10 inch brake assemblies, as long as everything is functioning properly. Which brake controller are you using? Is it throwing any error codes? I'll link to some helpful articles about testing and troubleshooting brake controllers, but I can run through some of the more common and easy to find and...
