Review of Curt Wiring - 7-Way to 5-Way Wiring Adapter - C84HR- Video

Review of Curt Wiring - 7-Way to 5-Way Wiring Adapter - C84HR

Ellen : Hey everybody, I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com where we're taking a quick look at the Curt Wiring Adapter. This is going to go from a seven pole, or an RV style connector, to a five way flat. So if that's what you have on the back of your vehicle, and you need to connect to your trailer, this is going to be the adaptor to get you there.It measures out about 96 inches when you fully stretch it out. But that coil design is going to help to keep the excess off the ground. So as you stretch it out, it's not going to just be dragging on the ground and getting marred up or scraped or anything like that.So we'll take a closer look and I'll show you those terminals, so you can make sure that this is the right fit for you. Now, our seven blade would normally have seven functions, but since it's only going to our five wires, that's all the functions that we're going to get from this.And those five functions are going to be your stop, or your brake signal, your turn, so left and right, running lights, reverse signal as well.And again, just corresponds with the terminals on the other side. more

Review of Pollak Wiring - Wiring Adapters - PK12-724- Video

Review of Pollak Wiring - Wiring Adapters - PK12-724

Ellen: Hey everybody, I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com,= and we're looking at the Pollak trailer wiring adapter. This gives you a 7-pole round to a 7-way blade, and it allows you to transfer those wiring connections from one vehicle to another, or from your vehicle to your trailer. Typically this is going to be used in mostly ag applications, when you're moving things around on the farm and you just need to have those flashers so that you can let other people know to go around you, or just to watch out.Some things to keep in mind, though, a lot of times whenever you have a 7- blade round connection, it's going to be wired a little bit differently than what this is intended for. So if you have a separate brake signal from the trailer, the turn light signals, so if those are on different wires, the brake signal and the turn signals aren't combined, this won't work. It only works with a combined signal system. It had a resistor or a converter in this, you could make it work, but it's just going to be a direct wiring.Also, you definitely want to test all the functions of the wiring, because it can be a little bit squirrely as far as what lines up with what. more

Review of Hopkins Wiring - Wiring Adapters - HM47425

Ellen: Hey everybody. I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com and we're going to talk about the Hopkins trailer wiring adapter. This goes from a 7-pole round to a 7-way blade style connection. So a lot of times this is going to be used in ag applications when you're trying to just move stuff around on the farm and you need to connect up to any kind of a John Deere, or maybe just international vehicle, something that's going to be more of that ag application. The reason why you wouldn't necessarily want to use this for a just regular towing or RV application is because this is only designed to be used with a combined turn signal and brakes, or turn and brake system. So if you have separate turn signals from the brake, meaning those signals are on different wires, this won't pull that through correctly. more

Hopkins 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole Adapter Installation - 2019 Toyota Highlander- Video

Hopkins 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole Adapter Installation - 2019 Toyota Highlander

Connor: Hey everybody, how's it going Connor today at etrailer.com. We're going to be taking a look at the Hopkins 4 and 7-Pole Trailer Connector Adapter here for our 2019 Toyota Highlander. Now, granted, this may vary a little bit, depending on what trailer connector mounting bracket we're using, but more often than not, it's going to be secured to the hitch receiver tube here, which is going to give us a nice accessible location here as well as going to be sturdy so we don't have to worry about it shifting around or plugging in our trailer connectors. So a seven-pole trailer connector is going to be a step up from the standard four-way trailer connector, and some reasons why you might need a seven-way trailer connector, number one, the most common is if you have electric brakes on your trailer, you are going to be required to run a seven-way trailer connector.And another common occurrence we see of the seven-way trailer connectors being used is if the trailer has a battery and you need to run a battery charge line circuit. So if you have a larger trailer with electric brakes or an onboard battery, chances are it's going to use a seven-way trailer connector, so we're going to need one of these for the vehicle.So this trailer connector here is sort of unique in that it offers pretty much plug and play installation because it's going to plug into an existing four-way trailer connector we have on the vehicle. And if you don't have one of these, we have plenty of plug and play options here at etrailer. more

Curt Trailer Connector Adapter Installation - 2020 Volvo XC60

Connor: Hey guys, Connor here at etrailer.com. Today we're going to be taking a look at the CURT trailer connector adapter here for our 2020 Volvo XC60. So this is what the 7-way is going to look like installed on pretty much all vehicles. As you can see here, the great thing about this adapter here, it's going to take a 4-way flat trailer connector adapter, which is the most common and standard kind and it's going to adapt it into a 7-way trailer connector adapter. We're also still going to retain the 4-way on the side here.So if you're wondering why you would need a 7-way trailer connector and the reason for this is most larger to medium duty trailers or any trailer with brakes for that matter, is going to require the 7-way because the 7-way has more circuits than the 4-way, which allows us to accommodate additional features such as the electric brake output pin or reverse lights, should we need them. It's also going to have a battery charge line circuit if our trailer has an onboard battery. more

It does stretch to about three feet in length.It does use the molded connectors, you can see right here, and they do a built-in strain relief on each one. You can see right here, it keeps the wire from being strained and possibly broken or torn. Same way on this one, it has a nice strain relief. more

Jeff: Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're going to take a look at this Hopkins seven way blade to six way round adapter. Now this adapter will plug into your vehicle's side seven way blade socket, and it converts your connector format to a six way round pin type. You can see it has this nice tethered dust cap on it, then when it's not plugged in, you can protect the terminals.Now, one note on this adapter, the center pin is set up as the more common 12 volt hot lead, but it can easily be changed to work with trailers and will have the center pin wired as the brake. And to do that, what you'll first want to do is you'll need a circuit tester to test the pins in your six way connector. Basically just ground the alligator clip to the vehicle chassis, and then touch the test light to the center pin on your six way connector. more

Tow Ready Replacement 7-Way Harness Review

Hi there, towing enthusiasts. Today we're going to be taking a look at Tow Ready's replacement seven-pole pigtail harness. This replacement harness will work with any seven-way connector that uses a standard round plug at the back. So if you have a damaged harness on your vehicle, you can simply buy this, cut out your old wiring and splice in your new harness. What else I like about this harness is that it comes with heat shrink butt connectors for all of our connections, and they provided the appropriate sizes, as some of your wires on your seven-pole use larger diameter wires. So we've got our yellow butt connector here for the heavier gauge wiring and blue butt connectors for our lighter gauge wiring. more
