Combined 7-Way and 4-Way Flat Connector for Motorhome  

Question:

Tow Vehicle: 2016 Newmar Bay Star 3124 Tow Dolly: 2018 Demco Kar Kaddy SS w/4-way flat connector Towed Vehicle: 2017 Toyota Yaris iA 4 door sedan Goal: Having both tow dolly lights 4-way flat connector and wireless lights 7-way connector on towed vehicle. Tow dolly has 4-way flat connector for its lights. Although there is currently a 7-way connector on the RV, it DOES NOT have the wiring harness connector on the back that can be disconnected/removed to add your Part # C55384, Curt T-connector 4-pole flat connector. I want to replace the current 7-way connector with your Part # HM47210, Hopkins Endurance Quick Install 7-way Connector, and then include your Part # C55384 which will provide power to the 4-way flat connector for the tow dolly and use the 7-way connector to power your Part # RM-2120, Magnetic Tow Lights. My question: will the C55384 work with the HM47210 without any modification i.e. will it plug and play

Helpful Expert Reply:

There is a way for you to replace the 7-way on your motorhome with a combined 4-way and 7-way so you can plug in the Roadmaster Magnetic Tow Lights # RM-2120 to the 7-way and your Kar Kaddy to the 4-way, though you will not be able to use the parts you were referring to because you do not have the wiring harness connector (also called a U.S. car connector).

Instead what you can do is use the Adapter 4-Pole to 7-Pole # 37185 and cut off the 4-way connector. All you have to do at that point is splice this into the wires that remain after you removed your current 7-way and you will have a working 4-way and 7-way.
