7-Way Trailer Connector Will Not Fit in 7-Way on RV
Question:
The 7 blade connector on my Livinlite toy hauler fits my 2013 F150 but will not fit the blade connector on my 2004 Triple e motorhome. Is there 2 different blade connectors? The blades on the motorhome seem to be wider not allowing the trailer connector to slide over the blades. See attached photos

Expert Reply:
There are some 7-Way connectors/sockets that have blades that are a little larger than others and can cause this issue. Sometimes you can force the trailer end in but I recommend replacing the connector on your RV with a new one such as # PK11893 if the one you have now accepts the standard US car connector that plugs into the back of the 7-Way.
But what you show in the picture seems pretty standard to me so it's possible that the trailer side connector is a little different (though it fits your truck). For a basic trailer side 7-Way you can use # PK12706.
