Video Transcript for Review of Hopkins Trailer Wiring - 7-Way Trailer Connector with Universal Pigtail Harness - HM47210
Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at this Hopkins Endurance Quick Install Seven Way Trailer Connector with universal pigtail harness. This is a seven blade RV style trailer connector that will mount onto your vehicle. It's gonna be very simple to get installed. Your pigtail harness here is going to hardwire into your truck's existing wiring and then the seven way connector is going to plug right into that harness. As you can see, I already have it here but I can pull those apart so you can see those two different components together.
Once you get that assembled there, then it'll be ready for you to plug in your trailers a seven way cable there. This is an extremely durable ABS plastic construction so it is gonna hold up really well for you. This oversized lid hinge allows our lid to open 180 degrees so it is going to be very easy to make our connections there. I'm not gonna have to worry about the lid being in the way and then when it's closed, it is going to help keep out dirt and moisture to protect those connections. This does have enhanced weatherproofing with internal seals and corrosion resistant terminal so it is going to hold up well even being out in the elements for long periods of time.
Now the mounting screws and bracket that you're gonna need to get this mounted are sold separately. You can find those here at etrailer.com. Very simple to use those, to get this mounted on your truck. So that completes our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com.
Thanks for watching..

This kit lets you add a Quick-Install 7-way, RV-style trailer connector to your vehicle. Included pigtail harness hardwires into your truck's existing wiring, and the 7-way connector plugs into the harness. Hardware not included.by: Nathan C.09/20/2013
Overall, I was very impressed by this connector. I used it as an in-bed connector for my gooseneck trailers. The plug seems to be a quality product, engineered to stand up to some abuse. I like how the mounting bolt heads recess into the connector and also how the bottom of the connector is elongated to help support the weight of the plug and wiring. I think it has a great shot at lasting for a very long time. The hinge is predominately plastic that will not corrode and break like the many I've had in the past.

Great Product quick and easy install.

The ordering process was easy Thank you!

Purchased Rv trailer socket for "in bed" installation in my Ram truck. Installation went smoothly and etrailer videos were most helpful in visualizing the install. Product works as described and ordering and delivery were on schedule. Thanks for the great service!

Excellent Will definitely order again excellent customer service
by: Mike Y08/18/2017
works just as intended. Install was easy, I did not use the included bracket because it would hang below the bumper. I mounted it inside the well on the bumper where you would put a bumper hitch. It is used only about once a month. I did have to run a brake controller wire because my truck was not equipped with it. 13 f150 xl

I had the loose wire pigtail already under my f250 sd. I clipped the factory sealant off the end of the wires on the truck, stripped em back and attached with heat seal butt connectors. You will need the blue and yellow connectors as the factory wires are different gauges.
Etrailer has excellent how-to videos and detailed information about all their products it seems. It made buying and installing the right parts a breeze. They do the homework for you, their prices are better than most other online retailers and they ship fast. They earned my repeat business.
by: Dude s Garage01/08/2015
Although I have just installed this I believe it to be very good quality and it should last a long time based on my inspection of it. Be sure to order a mounting bracket if you don't already have one as this unit doesn't come with a bracket. Hopkins bracket part # is 48615.
I like the fact that the harness plugs into the connector instead of having to strip and connect every wire into the connector individually. That should help inhibit corrosion which is the #1 cause of trailer electrical issues and it makes things much easier if I have to replace the connector later.
by: Charlie S08/25/2014
I have purchased from etrailer several times and the products have always been as described. They ship fast and the products are packaged well. I hit my wiring harness on a log and needed to replace it. etrailer was less money then the auto stores and I did not have to drive 28 miles into Durango and back. Gas prices make online purchases great.
Thank You for being in business.

Quick and easy to install. Just splice wires( I use the shrink type connectors). No messing around trying to get wires under screws. And if the plug connector ever gets broke, all you have to replace is the connector. The wires are in a waterproof housing that unplugs from connector.
by: JIm G05/04/2017
This connector is just want I was looking for. It gives me a way to power my trailer via an external battery. I have attached battery clips to the leads. The construction is solid, and the documentation for each lead is excellent. For my cargo trailer, I use the lead for the running lights. For my travel trailer, I use the lead called accessories, I think.
by: Doug T.09/04/2013
Exactly what I needed for less than half the price a local dealer quoted for purchase ($44, not including installation! He also wouldn't sell me just the kit, for the kit with installation he wanted over $100!) Do it yourself and save a bundle - make a few simple wire connections and plug and go - etrailer.com makes it quick and easy! Shipping is prompt.
by: Dennis08/02/2018
This was just what I was looking for. I have a motorized trailer dolly that I wanted to add this item to in order to operate my electric boat winch rather than having to back the truck up to the trailer.
by: Jerry07/23/2018
The item with a good layout of color coding where to install was awesome. I installed and plug in to my boat trailer and tested ... everything works in correct light function.
I will do business again with your company. Keep it up.

As good as the day I installed it Great having the reverse lockout when vehicle is put in reverse to back a trailer
by: Jer08/06/2022
Great company. With products I need. Fantastic service and real people! Great followup! They even linked an installation video for my use. I will be back.
by: George02/26/2018
Product is great and easy to install. I only wish it would have come with the crimp connectors and heat shrink however that was my fault for selecting the wrong product.

The Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector with Universal Pigtail Harness - Vehicle End - HM47210 works well no problem with the installation. All fit the original bracket.
by: Jim G04/23/2017
Works for me exactly as I hoped. A way to wire up a spare battery to run the lighting on the cargo trailer so as to not drain the truck battery.
by: Bobby S.04/03/2014
Work great. Just wish truck driver would quit moving the wires so that the plug pulls out and breaks the plastic. Easy to replace once the back plug is wired.
by: Bobby09/09/2017
Well made product. Will need to purchase mounting hardware and splicing material. Wire colors matched standard chevrolet wire colors with the exception of the backup/reverse which is purple on the pigtail vice light green on my truck.
by: Steve M04/01/2020
I have always been happy with the items from etrailer and intend to continue buying their products

Good solid plastic lid.
Very easy to install.

- Replacing 4-way Trailer Connector with 7-way on 2013 Honda Pilot with Factory Tow PackageTo replace your 4-way with a 7-way on your 2013 Honda Pilot you can leave the converter box and relay harness. You'll need to cut off the existing 4-way and install a 7way connector like # HM47210. If you're looking for a 7-way that will plug in to the existing wiring instead of the 4-way, you can get the wiring harness kit # 118265 and only use the 7-way harness. It would be must easier installation of the 7way. However, this harness is only sold with the entire kit and not individually. If...

The reverse signal should be connected to the center location of either application. You will simply need to make sure your wiring corresponds with the function locations. I've attached a photo to assist. For a 7-pin that normally does not have a reverse light, that means utilizing the auxiliary in the...

- Parts Needed to Add a Prodigy RF Brake Controller to a European Trailer and VehicleYou would have to install a separate US style 7-Way trailer connector such as # HM47210 on your tow vehicle for the RF to plug into. In this connector only the 12 volt circuit and the brake light circuits need to be active. For the 12 volt circuit (black wire) you can run a wire such as # 12-1-1 sold by the foot from the new 7-Way 12 volt wire up to the vehicle battery via a 40 amp circuit breaker such as # PK54540. For the brake light circuits you can tap into the connector you are using...

The Hayes Air Actuated Trailer Brake Controller # HA100400C will only send power to the electric brake assemblies or an electric over hydraulic brake actuator. The lighting including your brake lights, turn signals and running lights will all be powered through your 7-way trailer connector. As you will likely have a 7-Pin connector versus the 7-Blade you will likely have with your trailer. I recommend installing...

- Fifth Wheel Wiring Harness for 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500I believe what you are looking for is the Hopkins Endurance 5th Wheel/Gooseneck # 41157.

I have added a link to this part being installed on a 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500 for you to take a look at.

- Replacement 7 Way Wiring Harness For Vehicle And TrailerIf you could provide me with the year, make, and model of you vehicle, then I could see if there is a direct fit 7 way harness that is compatible. Most passenger vehicles come with a pre-installed 4 way flat connection that require a 7 way to 4 way kit, such as Curt Trailer Connector Adapter # C57672. Or if you already have the 7 way wires at the back of your vehicle then you can use Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector with Universal Pigtail Harness - Vehicle End # HM47210...

- Towing a Trailer with 7-Way RV Style Connector with a Semi-Truck with a Semi Style 7-WayThe 7-Way on a semi-truck is not the same as an RV style 7-Way and there isn't an adapter. What I recommend, instead of replacing the connector on the trailer, is to add the correct mating 7-Way on the truck. To do that you can hardwire in a 7-Way, # HM47210. For this 7-Way the white wire is ground, yellow is left turn signal and brake lights, green is right turn signal and brake lights, brown is the tail light wire, red is auxiliary power, blue is output to electric brakes, and purple...
view full answer... - Recommended Universal 7-Way Wiring Harness for a 1983 Ford F-250 I am sorry but we do not have the factory wiring harness you are looking for. The only solution I have to help you with your problem is the Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector with Universal Pigtail Harness item # HM47210. This would allow you to cut off the old connector and wiring harness and install this in its place.

I will tell you up front that we do not have anything made of stainless steel though. One really good option is the Pollak Metal 7-Pole # PK12703 which is made of a zinc plated steel. Another really good one is the Pollak Heavy Duty 7-Pole # PK11720. This is made of die-cast zinc and will be highly rust resistant. In my opinion this will be the best option as far as durability. We also have some...

If you don't have a 4-pole, you can install one using part # 118345. At this point, you'll need to decide if you need the 7-way to provide the lighting and battery circuits only to the trailer, or if you need to install a brake controller on the Explorer as well. If you just need the lighting and battery feed circuit, you can use an adapter like part # 37185. The adapter would plug into your existing...
view full answer... - Replacement 7-Way Trailer Connector for a 1998 Dodge RamThere isn't really a plug-in play replacement 7-way for a 1998 Dodge Ram Pickup. That said, we do still have options and for this I recommend the Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector with Universal Pigtail Harness part # HM47210. This new trailer connector will simply splice on to the existing wires once you cut the old plug off. It's the best option we have for replacement.

You can use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to find the function of each of those 7 wires. If they are the proper functions for a 7-way trailer connector you will be able to use # HM47210. If those are not the correct wires, then you will need to install a 4-way trailer connector using # 118344 which installs by plugging into the Explorer's wiring via a connector...

If you would like to hard wire a new connector to the truck, then you will need to use a circuit tester. item # PTW2993 if you need one, to verify the circuits that need to be wired to the 7-Way, item # HM47210, or 6-Way connector, item #...

Therefore, you'll need to remove the 4-round and install a 7-blade which is really your best option since this is far more common for trailers. In order to do this you'll need Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector part # HM47210.

What I recommend, instead of replacing the connector on the trailer, is to add the correct mating 7-Way on the truck. To do that you can hard wire in a 7-Way, # HM47210.

- Replacement 7-Way Recommendation for 2016 Ford F-150 with Curt Echo Brake ControllerThe solution is definitely to get a new 7-way which the part # HM47210 will work great for your 2016 Ford F-150. The round socket on the back of the connector will plug right into the matching connector that your truck has. The blade that has fallen out is the 12 volt accessory circuit pin and it is what the controller needs for power. Right now it's making an intermittent and unreliable connection which is why it's not always working. This can be really dangerous as it might not be on...

The only option would be to install one like the Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector with Universal Pigtail Harness # HM47210 but you will need to splice into the factory wiring.

You will tie into your air brakes with Air Line # RM450700 sold per foot and then you will wire the controller to a 12 volt battery positive and negative.

- Lunette Ring Tow Bar Recommendation for Flat Towing 2004 Chevy SilveradoFor a tow bar we have the Roadmaster Stowmaster part # RM-583 which has a 6k capacity and uses a 3 inch Lunette ring.

If you have a 1500LD Z71 you'd want the part # 199-5 or part # 199-10 for if you have a 1500LD that's not a Z71. For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring...
