Expert Reply:
Your current 5-way has two wish boned circuits. One on the running lights and for the reverse light circuit which is why two wires run to each pin. All you'd have to do is run both of the trailer wires of each circuit to the single wire of the replacement 5-way like the part # HM47910 and you'd be set. It would function just fine as this is a very common situation.
