What Powers Truck Bed Camper Lights and Clearance Lights
Question:
Have 2018 Silverado, and a pop up pick camper. Need to wire power to camper and clearance lights. Guessing need to run power wire from battery to power lights etc in camper, then plug into trailer hook up to run running lights? What connector do you suggest and wiring diagrams you may have.
asked by: Brad L
Expert Reply:
Typically trailer campers will have 7-way connectors that you'd run to 7-way socket in the bed of the truck which you could install in your Silverado truck bed part # 41157. This will cover the clearance light circuit and have the 12 volt power circuit for the interior lights.
