6-Way Round Trailer Connector Recommendation for a Boat Trailer
Question:
I dont understand what wishboneinch means in the title or how I would use that. I dont really know what to do with this 5-wire connector. I cant seem to locate anything that has the 6-round connector. I am re-decking a 20-ft tandem axle trailer, and the existing wiring tore up when I removed the old boards.

Wishbone wiring refers to the running light (brown wire) circuit of the part # A25W5B that you referenced. The circuit has two wires running from the pin because this circuit get run to both sides of your trailer's wiring.
If you need a 6-way round connector you would instead need the part # H20036. This is a 6-way round connector with an 8 foot lead on it.
