7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector, 6' Long - H20044

Average Customer Rating:  4.7 out of 5 stars   (329 Customer Reviews)


by:

Only gave 4 stars because it was a bit confusing. I have a lot of auto wiring experience; from car stereos,amplifiers and all manner of accessories. All of the info on etrailer indicated that the color coding didn't match up. So I went into it disregarding the standard color coding, when in fact it was just as it should be.



by:

Good thick rubber and plug works perfec tly.



by:

Good heavy duty. Perfect replacement.



by:

Guts truck receptacle tightly old one didn’t. Easy to indtall



by:

I just received this and am looking forward to getting it installed and my trailer wired up. This looks like a quality product.



by:

This is not the first pigtail that I have found that was wired incorrectly.

When you match all the colors up...like yellow to yellow ( left turn) in the box and brown to brown (running light)

The lights don't work correctly....colors have to be mismatched...in order for the ligh/ to preform correctly.
Yellow =left turn....Green = right turn.....Brown = running lights.....White = GND

the pigtail is a nice piece...but 2 of the wires are shaped for standard 7 pin round.in the molded end

This trailer connector does indeed use a different color code for its wires. It is specifically mentioned on the product page. The connector would wire up as follows- White wire is Ground, Red wire is Left TurnBrake lamp, Brown wire is Right TurnBrake lamp, Green is Taillights, Blue is Trailer Brakes, Black is 12-Volt power from battery and Yellow is an auxiliary circuit, frequently used for the reverse lamps.

AWESOME AS ALWAYS!!!!!

Soft and flexible cable sheathing. works well for my application to replace an old corroded plug connector

Still works well, even sitting in the weather it works as intended. It is not used very often but still exposed to the elements.

FAST & EFFICIENT AS ALWAYS



by:

I installed this plug on a trailer and it works fine.



by:

The color coded wires did not match the standard for which went where. I first assumed it matched and installed accordingly. Only ground (white) and electric break control (blue) were correct. Brown, yellow, and green were all wrong. I believe black and red were also switched, although those seem to be less standardized. Then I checked it for continuity with multimeter and reconnected, crossing colors as necessary. Also, outside sheathing immediately separated from molded plug during first use. This appears to be very nice, heavy construction, but in reality it is a big disappointment.

There are two different accepted wire color code conventions for a 7-way trailer connector, which is why we provide a chart see above showing the wire color codes applicable for this trailer connector.



by:

Good quality, fast delivery.



by:

Well built. easy to install.



by:

Products were all as described and good quality. The only problem was packaging. The insulation on the wires on one of the brake assemblies was cut requiring splicing. Not a big deal but did require additional time and effort since they were cut where going through back plate. Wish I had purchased two conductor brake wire. Would have made job easier.But that was my mistake.

No problems, everything working as it should.

Seems like a good quality cord so I’m h appy.

Chris

Worked out great till a couple months ago when someone didn’t pay attention and the plug pulled out and got dragged so I will be ordering another.



by:

I felt the product was good, but the cord was not long enough. When I ordered it, the one I wanted had a longer cord, but was not available. I was in a bind so I took the shorter one. It works great, but it is not long enough for my needs. If I have to turn the trailer sharp the cord will pop out of the plug, due to the shortness of the cord. Good product.

Mike M.

I sold the trailer. The cord was still not long enough.



by:

Part was promptly delivered and was the correct item.



by:

Used this product to extend the trailer's factory cable due to the new tow vehicle's receptacle was farther from the camper tongue. After one year, it is still working well.
All wire colors were correct.

Still working well!



by:

Very nice quality product. It's nice to have a molded plug, and this fits the bill nicely. Length is adequate as well. Couple this with one of the trailer junction boxes (another excellent product) and you'll have a clean and professional installation.

Georgem

All good. Havent used the trailer much tho.



by:

Quality product at a reasonable price. Worked great- used a "weather pack" connector for a nice sealed connection to the rest of the trailer wiring. Just be sure to carefully check the wire colors (as many noted in the reviews)- they are not standard!

Aaron N.

10/2/2017

After a year, product is still like new- weather exposure hasnt caused any issues at all!



by:

I found that their Web site was fairly easy to navigate through. I was easily able to find what I needed. Placed my order and waited. Was able to easily track my products progress which was nice. Received it and open the package and found it well packed and the product looks well constructed and durable. I would order from here again.

Its working great. Had to verify each wire individually as the online schematics may have been different colors but with a few minutes a second person and a multimeter it was figures out. Wired onto trailer and have had no issues

Confirming wiring functions is alway a wonderful thing, you definitely took the right approach. Happy to hear you got your trailer wiring connection installed and you are good to go.


by:

The color coding of the wiring in relation to their position was all incorrect to what is recognized as standard. Since the plug is molded there is no way to switch positions of the wires. I had to use a continuity tester to determine what was what. The trailer brake circuit was the only one that was correct

Etrailer Expert

Mike L.

8/15/2018

There is more than one accepted color coding for a 7-way trailer connector, which is why we list the color code on the product description that shows which function each wire color carries. Heres a link to our Trailer Wiring help article that you might find helpful.



by:

Good service. I had called and confirmed the details about the cord and plug. The salesperson was very helpful and gave me a good target date for delivery. Got it today as was promised. I’ve got it installed and it works well. It has a quality heavy duty cord that is molded into the plug. Time will tell if my hopes for longevity is achieved.
Thanks and keep up the good service!!

Terry W.

Here in west Texas, it is dry and hot. The trailer sits outside and is in the elements. The cord and connector are holding up well. Works every time!! Thanks for providing a good product with service to match.



by:

Nice wire, appreciate the different wire gauges for the wire that will carry more power.

  • Recommended Wiring, Junction Box, And Breakaway Kit For 18-Ft Tandem Flat Bed Trailer
    To re-wire your 18-ft trailer you will need a few things. I recommend installing a junction box like part # PK52248. You can run your trailer connector like part # H20044 to the junction box and use the terminals in the box to run the wiring to the trailer. For 7-way jacketed wire I recommend part # DW04914-1. This is sold by the foot. The junction box will also make it easier to install and use a breakaway kit like part # HM20001. This kit includes a charger and a weather-resistant...

    I've attached an article to help you with the wiring functions and common colors as well as pin placement. I've also attached some videos to assist with installation. For a long term solution, I recommend the Epicord 7-Way Molded Trailer Plug with Junction Box - 10' Long # 277-000141 and # 44-5310A ring terminals. This will make connections and trouble shooting easy as well as gives you the weather protection of having a wiring box versus heat shrink butt connectors. If you prefer the...

Using this extension will give you a lot of extra wiring so you may just be interested in using a different 7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector like part # H20044 which is 6' long on your trailer side.

    To add brakes and the wiring to support their operation to your 5 x 8 cargo trailer you'll want to make sure the brakes have the correct rating for your axle (which you did) and also that they use the same mounting bolt pattern as your installed brake flanges. The brakes you referenced, left and right brake kit # AKEBRK-35-SA, use a 4-bolt flange pattern. The hubs you referenced, # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K, will work with these brakes.

  • Replacement 7-Way and Junction Box for 5th Wheel Trailer with Non-Functioning Brakes
    Since you have confirmed that your 5th wheel's brakes do not work even when connected to a different tow vehicle you will want to focus on the trailer for your troubleshooting. There are simple troubleshooting steps you can take to isolate the problem on the trailer. First, I suggest checking the condition of the 7-way plug. Sometimes corrosion can develop INSIDE the plug housing where it is all but impossible to detect. Normal exposure to the elements can cause this. Since your brake...

    Since you said you have a 7-way blade connector on your Silverado I would start with the 7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector, part # H20046. This is an 8 ft long harness with the 7-way trailer connector. If you need a shorter harness, you can check out part # H20044 which is a 6 ft long harness with the connector. You will want a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 to make sure you match the wiring on the trailer side connector to the functions on the vehicle connector. I then recommend...

I attached an install video that shows this exact harness being installed on a 2013 Chevy Silverado just like yours for you to check out. This connector is compatible with the standard 7-ways that are often found on trailers. If you have something unique you can replace what you have on the trailer with a new connector like # H20044.

  • Adding a 7-Way Trailer Connector and Brake Controller to a 2005 Ford E-150 Van with 4-Way
    I have seen 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, and 13 pin trailer connectors but never an 8 pin connector. Are you sure it is an 8 pin and not the regular blade style 7-Way such as # H20044? If it does not look like this please send me a picture of the trailer's connector so I can determine what it is. If it is indeed a regular RV style 7-Way then we do have the parts to add a mating 7-Way to your 2005 Ford E-150 van. You will need # ETBC7 to add the 7-Way, retain the 4-Way, and have the wiring needed...

    Thank you for your purchase from etrailer of the Curt Echo # C51180.

    The center pin on your 7-way on the trailer side is the reverse light function. These can be different colors, which I get is confusing, but you will need to do some deductive reasoning or use a circuit tester to determine the function and color. For instance the yellow wire on the Hopkins # H20044 or the Bargman # 50-67-103 is the reverse wire which isn't the norm because the yellow wire is typically the left turn and left brake wire.
