How is Trailer Wiring Configured on Two Trailer Setup
Question:
2006 F150 using Reese 74682 Id like to add a Turn signal converter to use LED lights on Multiple trailers non RV using both the 4 flat and 7 pin plug. Can you suggest either vehicle side or trailer side product?

Expert Reply:
When towing a second trailer it's typically the easiest to install trailer wiring on the rear of the first trailer for the second one to attach to. No converters would be needed though since the signals are already in the right configuration from the first trailer.
To add a 4-way to the rear of the first trailer the # 18252 tapped into the trailer wiring is a pretty easy solution overall.
