product from Pollak is always great but they packed it with steel couplers and destroyed it
by: Corey 03/14/2023
It is a direct OEM replacement, easy installation. What I liked most was a real person answered my call and took my order, Katherine was very polite and knowledgeable. Thanks again. CJ

Worked out awesome. I bought this for a buddy for his used truck. The previous owners for what ever reason took it. Plugged it in and worked flawlessly.

2004 Nissan Titan
The 3 star rating is because this is not a direct replacement for a Nissan Armada. I bought this to replace the original socket on a 2004 Nissan armada. The hitch on the car says it is a Nissan hitch. I did not notice that the original socket mounted as a twist lock type and the bracket had no mounting screws when I ordered this socket. In defense of the manufacture and distributor of this socket the description did not say it was a direct replacement for an armada the assumption would be that the hitch would be the same as a titan. This was no big deal for me since I had a drill and bits to drill mounting holes and used # 8 sheet metal screws. Just have to be careful to drill the holes the right size so they self thread properly. I have been looking to see if there is a direct replacement for the original socket but can't seem to find one not even on Nissan's parts web site so I guess you just have to do what I did. I didn't think to take a video of the installation but I have included a picture of the finished install.

It fit perfect and was literally plug and play.
by: Fred 09/29/2023
I had to replace the socket in my truck after I forgot to disconnect the plug when setting up my camper 1 year ago. Since then, I've connected the camper 35 times and pulled it over 6,000 miles. I have had no issues at all with the new socket.

It fit right up to my 2016 Porsche Cayenne diesel. A very simple installation.
by: Alan11/30/2021
This is it!! If you have a Porsche Cayenne with a tow package (mine's a 2017) and you're wondering why the wiring "connector" that came from the factory is just a plate with nothing to plug in to... This is the thing you need! It fits the holes in the mounting bracket perfectly and plugs right into the harness coming out of the car (after you carefully release the little clip holding the clip connecting the plate to the harness (no, that's not a typo). I also purchased a matching 7 to 4-pin adapter, so I can easily connect to either. And etrailer had it all... and made it easy. Quick shipping, just as promised. Love e-Trailer! :)

Hi, I am a ASE Certified Automotive technician for 30-plus years. I have to say these parts are Factory quality, the option for Direct Fit everything plugs right into the wiring harnesses fits as if they came as original equipment with the vehicle and the same quality. When ordering parts if you call and speak to an operator that extremely helpful and actually know what's going on. And their tech support this extremely knowledgeable.

1995 Ford F-250 Super Duty
After redoing my trailer wiring harness to put a socket in the bed of my 1995 F250, I used this to replace the old socket in my bumper. Saved me having to do more splicing and hard wiring in the old socket.

After a year of use, this is still working great. I don’t use it a lot as most of my towing is of the 5th wheel using the in-bed connector.
by: Kevin G08/04/2016
2008 Porsche Cayenne
This is the original plug and play. For VW SUV's this does the trick. I recommend using some anti-seize on the bolts that secure this into the mount. I have this on both an Audi and a Porsche both work great. The picture shows what the car some with so you simply plug this unit into the factory socket and secure with 4 machine screws.
by: RT08/25/2020
Nice fit to my factory harness. This was a replacement for the factory hitch mount. I decided to drill a hole and mount in the bumper like I’ve seen on other vehicles. This makes for a convenient and protected location.

- Location of a CHMSL Wire on a 2011 F350 for Third Brake Light WiringOn your 2011 Ford F-350 SD there is a blue-orange wire under the hood on the driver side that can be used to power the third brake light. Check out the picture I attached to see what it looks like.

- Recommendation for Replacing a 7-Way Plug that Was Cut Off a 2007 GMC Sierra 2500Where was the harness cut? Is it between the 7-Way plug and round socket on the # 30955 harness, or is it behind that, on the factory wiring? If it was the # 30955 harness that got cut, it would be easiest to go ahead and replace it. If the factory socket was cut off, then you could use the Pollak 4-foot pigtail # PK11998 to attach the # PK11893 7-Way plug you referenced. We do not have a specific wiring diagram for your 2011 Chevrolet Suburban, so you would need to use a circuit...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting a Truck 7-way for a Non Functioning Left Turn/Stop CircuitI attached a picture of the front and back of a vehicle side 7-way for you to check out. If you are looking at the front of your 7-way the left turn/brake signal is the one in the 9:00 position. I would recommend you test this circuit with a circuit tester like our part # PTW2992 while the left blinker of your vehicle is on and look for intermittent voltage. If there is not voltage then you know the problem is in your vehicle and the circuit should be traced back looking for damage and...

- 4 and 7-Way Wiring Recommendation for a 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500Yes, check out the Hopkins Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring Harness part # HM40975. This will plug into the harness behind your bumper, will attach with the included bracket and will provide you with a 4 and 7-way. I attached an install video for you to check out also. I wish we offered something that would offer a 4-way and a 7-way that would fit in that hole in your bumper but we do not.
view full answer... - Needing a Replacement Mounting Bracket for a Pollak 7-Way Connector The replacement mounting bracket for a Pollak 7-Way connector is # PK12711U. the bracket is the replacement bracket for Pollak products # PK11893, # PK12703, and # PK12907.

I will list the options below, so you can determine which will be the best option for relocating your connector to the bumper of your vehicle. The Pollak 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket w/ Mounting Bracket - Vehicle End, item # HM40975, is the connector we normally recommend as a direct replacement for your truck. We have a video review of this connector for you to check out,...
view full answer... - Wire Connections for the Pollack OEM Replacement 7-Pole Trailer Connector # PK11893The Pollack Replacement OEM 7-Pole Trailer Connector, # PK11893, was designed to be an OEM replacement socket for Ford, Chevy, GMC and Nissan vehicles. This socket was designed to work with the OEM wiring harnesses. If you want to use this socket on your vehicle and you do not have an OEM trailer socket connector, then I recommend using the 4 ft Pigtail Wiring Harness, # PK11998. This wiring harness will plug into the rear of the Pollack 7-way socket and it provides 7 wires that you can...
view full answer... - Mounting Bracket for a 7-Pole Pollack RV-Style Connector on a 2015 Volkswagen TiguanI recommend the Pollack 7-Pole RV Style mounting bracket # PK12711U, for your Pollack 7-Pole. This bracket will include the hardware to mount the connector to the bracket as well as the bracket to the vehicle. For a no-drill installation, additional mounting bracket # C57202 can be used, this will clamp to the trailer hitch and bolt to the 7-Pole bracket. I have linked a video of this being demonstrated for your convenience.
view full answer... - Replacement 7-Way Trailer Socket for 2018 Toyota TundraFor a replacement 7-way vehicle socket that accepts a round U.S. Car type connector (like the one in the included photo) you can use either Pollak # PK11893 or Mighty Cord # A10-7072VP. If you prefer a socket that also includes a 4-pole connector as well the use part # HM40975.

- Replacement 7-Way Connector For A 2015 Ford F-250 Super DutyIf you're looking for just the socket portion of the 7-way connector then you'll want the Pollak Replacement 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector Socket # PK11893. This is the exact one that is used from the factory for Ford, Chevy, GMC, and Nissan trucks. It plugs directly into the factory wiring for an easy replacement. If you were referring to something else then just shoot me a picture of what you're needing and I'd be happy to find the correct replacement for you.

We have a video (see link) of a hitch install on a 2006 Ford F-250 that shows, at the end of the video, the relocation of the 7-Way connector. If you have another...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Surge Brake Trailer that Locks Up Brakes in Reverse But Solenoid ClicksIt is very possible the solenoid is defective. Since you hear it click when put in reverse we know it's getting voltage like it needs. You first might try improving the ground of the solenoid though. It's possible it's just not grounding properly to allow it to fully operate. If you have a Titan actuator you would want part # T4748800, or a Demco part # DM5404 for a replacement if you determine you the ground is good. If you have a different brand let me know.

Of course you will not want to use the Prodigy RF's module on the front of your trailer, you will want to remove that and simply plug your trailer's 7-way into the 7-way on your 2008 Ford F-350, which will be the same plug as the Pollak Replacement 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector Socket - Vehicle End # PK11893. I have also added...

Please note, you'll also need the Mounting Bracket part # PK12711U if you don't already have a mounting bracket.

In order to keep the brakes from activating, you need to have a reverse lockout on your brake actuator. It is possible that your current brake actuator has a manual lockout, or is capable of manual lockout using a key like the # DX94FR. You will need to identify your current brake actuator in order to determine if it has a reverse lockout or not. If that...

First let's make sure. In the under hood accessory fuse block there are two power posts on the engine side of the block. The post closest to the front of the truck should have a wire connected to it that runs back to the factory trailer connector and provides 12 volt power at the 1:00 position as you have stated. If the wire is not already...

- How to Wire Up the Third Brake Light of a Truck Canopy on a 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500For wiring the third brake light of your canopy you will want to locate the orange wire in the bundle of wires near your brake pedal that should be labeled CHMSL. For powering the dome light you will want to use a 12 volt power source, you could use the red/black wire in the bundle you found previously as this circuit is a 12 volt power source. Check out the FAQ article I attached that shows where this bundle is.

The Curt Echo # C51180 installs without any cutting or splicing of wires in the truck. The installation consists of plugging it in at your 7-way, plugging the trailer's...

The connector that you referenced is the trailer side connector and should be connected to the wires on the trailer. I have attached a trailer wiring article for you to check out that will help when installing the 7-way trailer connector on your trailer. If you do not have a 7-way socket...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Trailer Running Light Fuse Blowing on TruckI think you have it basically nailed down and the issue is that you have a short to ground on the trailer running light circuit on the right hand side of the trailer and would need to go over the wiring to see if you can find any cut or exposed wire and fix as needed. Sealing the exposed wire with electrical tape like part # PTW502 would be all you'd need.

You're not going to be able to use the signal from the 7 way connector, but we can help you find the wiring that you're needing in order to accomplish this. In order to do that, the best way is to tap into the Center High Mount Stop Light (CHMSL) circuit which should be present...

But if you wanted a solution that has both a 4-way and a 7-way you'd want the Curt # C55774 which installs the same but has both of these connectors present. If you do have a 7-way already and you were asking about installing a brake controller instead I would...

I attached a picture that has a full 7-way diagram for you to check out as well. Most likely it's a dirty or corroded pin but it could also be a blown fuse too so you might check that as well.
