RoadMaster 6 Wire Trailer Connector Installation - 2015 Cadillac SRX- Video

Today on our 2015 Cadillac SRX, we're going to review and install the Road Master 6 Wire 6 Round Trailer Pin Connector, Part #RM-910030-7. Here's what our 6 round connector is going to look like when it's installed. You open up the flapper, or door, on the front of our 6 round connector, we can see the 6 pins inside. These pins will allow us to send a signal from the tow vehicle here to the towed vehicle for our running turn and brake signal circuits. We could also add a supplemental braking system or other functions to maximize the potential of all 6 pins. One of the really nice features about the door here on this particular style is it's spring loaded, so when it's not in use, it'll hold it closed, keep out any dirt, dust, and debris. Now to begin our install, we need to remove the 4 flat connector that's been previously installed. more

Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2007 Cadillac SRX- Video

Today on our 2007 Cadillac SRX, we will be installing the Curt Tail Light Hardware Kit for 4 pole ends part number 56146KIT. First step of our install will be locating the manufacturer's wiring that runs to the back of the tail lights. We get underneath the vehicle and look above the tail pipe or muffler, we can see the wiring that will run through the back light of the tail lights. To make it easier to access the wire, we are going to go ahead and remove the two rear exhaust hangers and use a safety strap to move the muffler over to give us a little more working room. Next, we'll use a utility knife to go ahead and cut back the protective cover around the wire and remove a section so that we can get to the wiring. Now, with our wires exposed, we'll go ahead and use our test light to probe the wire and run this signal for the rear tail lights so we know which color will operate which signal. For this application, the purple wire will be our running lights and the yellow wire with a light brown tracer will be both the left hand turn signal and braking. Now, to connect the converter box wiring to our tail lights, we use quick splice connectors provided with our install kit. more
