4 Way to 7 way Adapter Recommendation for 1998 Ford Explorer to Install Curt Echo Brake Controller
Question:
I am looking at putting this on my 98 Explorer which only has the 4 way flat. Will this work to switch to the 7 Way and then use my Curt Echo? Looks like there are a couple of extra wires from the plug/ Do I have to tie those in somehow or just cap them off since I wont be using a hard wired trailer brake?
