Wiring my 89 electraglide to my piggyback trailer. Hi I bought your round 5 pin plug to fit my harley end,then cut off flat 5 from trailer. Can only get blinkers. Any ideas?

Expert Reply:
Since you have a motorcycle it almost certainly has separate tail lights (your brake lights are on separate bulbs as your turn signals). so even though you have connected the 5-Pole # PK11502 (motorcycle end) and 5-Pole # PK11501 (trailer end) you will also need the Wiring Converter # RM-732.
This will convert the separate style of wiring your motorcycle has to the combined style of wiring on your trailer.
