Recommended 6-Pole To 7-Way Trailer Connector For 1999 Ford F-250 Super Duty
Question:
I HAVE A 1999 FORD F- 250 SUPER DUTY . I PULL A STOCK TAILER THAT USES A 6 POLE PLUG AND I BOUGHT A GOOSENECK TRAILER THAT USES A 7 - WAY RV PLUG WHAT DO I NEED TO MAKE BOTH WORK

Expert Reply:
If you have a 6-pole connector on your 1999 F-250 I recommend using the Hopkins 6-Pole to 7-Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter, part # 47435.
You simply plug this into your 6-pole when you want to tow the gooseneck and you have a 7-way connector to use. The 7th pin is likely a reverse light circuit that likely is not used so you should be good to go.
If you have a 7-way on your truck and need a 6-pole to tow a trailer then you can use part # HM47570.
