SnakeS Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Hey again, Just installed my new trailer hitch and i was wondering what it the most popular type of wiring. I've heard of flat 3 and 5 and then theres a round one? Which are easier to install and should i go with one that plugs into the existing harness, and particular brands? thanks for your input Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blamtro Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 (edited) When I installed a trailer harness on mine, I used the 7 pin RV receptacle. I know it is over kill for most people, but the reason I suggest it is that you can always buy simple adaptors to step down to 6 way, 5 round, 5 flat, or 4 flat trailer harnesses. You cant go the other direction without some rewiring. I have an electric trailer brake controller installed also that you cant put on the receptacles besides the 7 pin. You will have to get a module to turn the pathy's separate stop and turn lights into a stop/turn combination. I purchased a UHaul unit. Search for Slicks How to post on this.
