Replacement 4- and 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 2006 Ford F-150

Question:

I Have a 2006 F150 with a factory tow package, it has the 4 plug and 7 pin plug in one bracket. Would part # 20119 be a direct replacement for the factory one, and is it just a plug and go to do it. No hard wiring involved?

There are a couple of replacement 4/7-Way connectors you could use on your 2006 Ford F-150 including # 74682. This connector has a short wiring harness that will plug into the harness that was plugged into the factory connector. It is not likely to fit in the factory mounting bracket though. It does come with its own mounting brackets and does not require hardwiring.

Another option is # HM40975. This is a different style but also just plugs into the factory harness. This design is closer to the OEM on many vehicle but may still not fit in the factory bracket. It also comes with a mounting bracket and does not require any hardwiring to install. I have included a link to a video showing a typical installation of this connector for you.
