Trailer Lights Plug

[JJZ71]

I have a rats nest of wires under my truck. Farmer had it set up to tow any trailer ever made! I have plugs coming out of my ears. Need to go under and tear it all out and start fresh.

I cant tell you how many scotch-locks I pulled out of the back of my truck when I got it... that and some 14-2 house wire... yuk. rip it all out! scotch-locks suck

I ripped it all out today and found that NONE of it connected to anything! It was all cut somewhere in between the front and rear of the truck. Starting over from scratch at some point this week.

i just use a 7 round plug and then have an adapter i keep in the glove box for a 4 flat i use the 7 pin all the time but the 4 flat was only for my tow dolly so the adapter doesnt get used much but the adapter i have is kinda cool it has leds in it so when its plugged to the truck and you use the lights the corresponding led lights up to show that circuit is working its funny because i actually use it more like a diagnostic tool than an adapter its nice when the trailer lights arent working i can plug the adapter in and tell if theres a problem with the wiring on my truck or if its the trailer wiring

I have a similar problem... looks like the trailer wiring was ripped out of mine at some point... however it is all connected to something.. no free ends, which has me ALL kinds of confused.

I decided to go this route:

It has the 4-prong on one side and the 7 way trailer on the other. There is also a pigtail to retrofit it.

i cant find this plug on thier site, do you happen to have a part number off of it? found it on amazon!

Ok so I currently have a 4 flat installed and pulled a trailer today and realized it is not working ( any of it) I want to start over and install a plug like 88gmctruck. What is the best route to go when starting from scratch and how do you know what wires to tap into? Thanks a lot.

Also, 88gmctruck, how did you retrofit your hitch. I am looking into doing the same thing.

It is here:

(To find it, I had to put the application of a 2003 Tahoe)

You will also need this:

Once you get it all wired up, if something happens to the plug, since it is now a later model Chevrolet plug, it is an easy replacement.

See my previous post, easy to do. As for the wiring get a test light and turn lights on and off that is what I did. It would also work if you had a shop manual or a wiring harness.
