Recommended 7-Way Wiring Harness and Hitch for a 1993 Ford Bronco
Question:
Recently purchase a 1993 Ford Bronco XLT. It does not have a hitch or trailer wiring. I see an T connection adapter for 4 pin but what would I need to get setup for a 7 pin?

Since your 1993 Ford Bronco already has a 4-way wiring harness like item # C55350, you will need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller item # ETBC7. The kit includes a pre-wired 7- and 4-way trailer connector that mounts to the rear of your Bronco with an included bracket. This kit is designed for use on a vehicle with an existing 4-way flat trailer connector and plugs directly into it.
You will then connect the blue wire to the blue wire on the brake controller, connect the black wire to the positive post on the vehicle's battery, the white wire to ground, and the yellow wire to vehicle's reverse circuit if applicable. This will provide you with the ability to control your trailer's brakes and also provide you with a 12v power wire for you trailer's accessory lights.
I have linked an installation video below to help you with the process. We didn't have one for your Bronco but I found a video we did on a 1991 F-150. This being a universal harness the installation process will be similar.
To control your trailer's brakes you will also need a brake controller. I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller item # 90195.
