Expert Reply:
The 4-Pole Trailer End Connector # 18004 is meant as a replacement for a trailer side 4-Way connector that has been damaged. That is why it is so short at 12 inches long. This is a standard 4-Way with one white ground wire, one brown running light wire, one yellow left turn/brake light wire, and one green right turn/brake light wire.
If the one you are replacing has 2 running light wires then you would want a wishbone harness, # W002230. I have included video reviews of both harnesses for you.
