  • Is Mighty Cord Replacement Hardwire 50A RV Plug Made in the US
  • The Mighty Cord Replacement Hardwire RV Plug - 50 Amp Male # A10-P50VP is stamped "Made in China" because it's made in China. That doesn't necessarily reflect poorly on the design though, as you can see with the positive reviews we have on our site. All of our other wiring manufacturers are made overseas as well so we won't have an American made option although a lot of the manufacturers are based in the US (like Valterra/Dometic who owns the Mighty Cord line of products).

  • Where Are Mighty Cord Power Cords Made?
  • The Mighty Cord RV Power Cord # A10-5025ED90 is made in China. Don't let this discourage you though. This is a well built and sturdy power cord and I have not had any issues with their products brought to my attention. That said, if you are looking for American made products, we do have the SmartPlug line available. The SmartPlug RV Power Cord # SM86FR would be the most similar to the Mighty Cord you were looking at, but SmartPlug uses a proprietary male port so you would also need to...

  • My LED Trailer Light Hitch # CR-007G Only Lights Up When Using A Converter
  • If you got something like this Adapter 7 Pole to 4 Pole with Tester # 47345 you will be able to convert your 7 pole to the 4 pole you need to power your light # CR-007G, you can also test to see if everything is working. If everything is, I think you may have an issue with your wiring with your factory 4 pole. You may also want to check your fuse box for a blown fuse. Also try to check your factory wire connection under your truck bed.

  • What Is The Outer Casing For RV Power Cords Made Of
  • The two brands we currently carry for 30 amp pigtail RV power cords are Mighty Cord # A10-3025END and Epicord # 277-000146. Epicord uses a PVC material for the outer casing of their cords and Mighty Cord uses a material they called STW (Standard Thermoplastic Outer Jacket) and would not further elaborate what it was composed of. Having handled both brands before I can say that they're really isn't much of a difference between the two besides Mighty Cord's casing having a bit more of a...

  • The Replacement Table Leg Kit for etrailer RV Dinette Tables part # e69RR is made of steel and has a black painted finish.

  • Is 2006 Keystone Montana 3000 RK Pre-Wired for Backup Camera?
  • Your 2006 Keystone Montana 3000RK was not pre-wired for a backup camera. You will need to either capture constant 12V power for the observation camera from the running light circuit or you can capture power from just the reverse light for use only when vehicle is shifted into reverse. I don't have a wiring schematic for your trailer, but I recommend capturing the running light power from the license plate light to power your backup camera. You can use the circuit tester # PTW2993 to...

  • Location of a Trailer Brake Controller Port on a 2005 Toyota Tundra with Factory Tow Package
  • Your tow package port on your 2005 Toyota Tundra will either be above the emergency brake pedal (even taped to it), or behind the kick plate panel to the left of the emergency brake pedal. The connector should be white. See the installation video on the 2006 Toyota Tundra I included as it will be the closest to your truck. If you don't have a brake controller yet, I highly recommend going with the Tekonsha P3 # 90195 because its one of the most popular and highest rated brake controllers...
