Only shot at finding out what was there is if there are bracket still under the bed that would have part numbers or brands listed. I would be willing to bet it was a universal rail kit like the part # RP30035 which uses L-brackets that attach to the truck frame though. view full answer...
The problem you most likely are experiencing is due to fact that semi trucks have the turn signals and stoplight circuit on separate circuits/wires. Standard trailer wiring has the stoplight and turn signal circuits on the same wire.
So in your situation you would need to wire in the Hopkins Tail Light Converter part # HM48847 on just the stoplight and turn signal circuits and you'll be good.
A brake controller would not affect the stoplight circuit at all. view full answer...
It sounds like 1 of 2 possible issues. First, if the vehicle has separate turn signal lights from the brake lights then you have a 3-wire system and you would need a converter such as # 119178KIT to take the separate signals and combine them. Then you can run the combined signals to the 7-Way by cutting off the 4-Way of the 119178KIT and attaching the wires to the 7-Way.
The other possibility is that if the vehicle has combined brake and turn signal lights, the stop light/CHMSL fuse may... view full answer...
Sounds like you are trying to pull the metal contacts out of the quick connect assembly. What you'll need to do is insert a slot screwdriver down into the opening end of the connector with the slot perpendicular to the opening so that you can depress the metal tab that holds the pins into the house and allow you to pull the lead out of the back of the connector. view full answer...
