Trailer Wiring Recommendation for Vehicle that Protects Vehicle Circuits
Question:
Hi, I was recommended to find one of your wiring blocks with relays so that any issues with the wiring on my trailer wont affect my truck. Can you tell me what I need to get? I have a Chevy K3500 with a bumper pull horse trailer, and I have the brake system set up and all. Thanks.

Sounds like you are looking for a powered trailer taillight harness converter.
For a 4-way that would draw all of the power for the taillights of the trailer from the vehicle battery you would want the part # 119250KIT.
To convert this to a 7-way and install your brake controller will require the part # ETBC7.
