Question

Question:

I am looking to purchase the HydraStar Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator w/ Breakaway and 7-Way RV Harness - 1,000 psi for my boat trailer. Is there a schematic that shows how to wire everything including converting the 4 way plug to the 7 way? Thanks for the help!

I have provided an electrical schematic below that shows how the electric over hydraulic actuator # HS381-9065 gets wired to the breakaway kit that comes with the kit.

I have also provided a link to a helpful article we have when wiring up your 7 pole.
