FIX YOUR TRAILER LIGHTS (4) - Installing A Truck Side Plug 

Great 10 min video on plugging in 2 connections that literally take 30 seconds to connect.

99 suburban.....I thought I was the only guy with a old truck. I’m driving a 96 GMC. Good video Dave, very helpful.

Great video like always I would like to add if you use zip ties for any outside holding jobs use the black ones they are recommended for outside use and hold up better to the weather.

I put new wiring on my 5×10 trailer, I drilled holes through the center of the angle under the trailer and put cold water pvc rear to front and run the wire through, should last a good long time

This really helped. Thanks much for posting.👍

Another great video

I like the video and information but the only thing I would not do is use a wire nut on my vehicle's wiring. Wire nuts are suppose to be used with home wiring only not vehicle use do to it is not a complete weather resistant connection and can cause high resistance with corrosion or connection issues later down the road with the ground wire.

No I need the whole wiring harness for the trailer and brake lights!! I have one of those stupid plug-in things and the vehicle wiring is the problem!!

First I've ever heard of ox-gard. It conducts electricity, so I suppose you don't want to put too much on and cause a short somewhere.

Well done

Ok, I am a 74 year old female, just bought a pop up camper, I have watched your videos, unless a missed something, I didn’t find my problem, so here it is. When we hooked up my car to the trailer all the running lights came on blinkers and brake lights lights didn’t, the guy said that the trailer lights were working the last time he used it, I am more inclined to think that it is from my car it was pulling a travel trailer but hasn’t been used for five years as far as plugging something into it and it does have a seven point hook up I just ordered a multi meter because I don’t have one I did check my fuses under the hood, none are blown, I will check the bulbs tomorrow and also check the wiring under the car, If you have any other suggestions please let me know I appreciate it thank you very much

Finding out the whole dont splice ur wire thing in my 02 s10!

You didn't show at the end if your work actually lit up all the led's on the checker. In my case only one of the lights works on the checker, so do you still put in a new truck side plug? Or do something else? I checked all the fuses I could think of and they were good.

I have used these on several different vehicles. This is the best way unless someone has already messed with the wires and cut them up. Here in Pa if you cut wires under a vehicle you are gonna have problems!!!

What a waste of time. Nothing said until 5 minutes in, then just hooking up to an existing plug. Sheesh

I have a 92 GMC jimmy, I'm looking for the same thing for my vehicle and i cant find it anywhere. any help?

Dave, I have a 97 suburban, very very similar setup. I've tracked my issue to being inside the truck, where you connect the T-Harness. My 4 pin is getting power to the brake and turn signals but not the 3rd pin down just before the ground pin, the trailer lights. I also have a dual 7 4pin-7pin flat and the 7 pin receives no power. Do you happen to know the term for this part if the electrical system? I'm trying to hunt a blown fuse. Should I take it to the mechanic?

Wellll done. Thanks.

Do you how you to wire a 4way flat output to a 1975 Chevy van g20?

Hi Sir how are you ? I hope you are keeping well ? I have a small problem with my trailer lights. The indicators and brake lights are working but when I turn on side lights my indicators and and brake lights are all over the place they keep flashing. Can you help me please thank you?

Wire nuts are horrible to use in vehicle applications, they're for house wiring... solder and shrink tubing!

Do you know why 4 pin with 7 pin adapter is not working signal flicks once then doesnt work . Why? It initially worked but then after flicked once. What is the issue. If someone could help.. A mechanic asked if the signal and brake were the same light they are not. So mechanic said that he believes that is the reason. IDK anyone know why? google said bad ground.

Where did you get this ? What the name of it ?

What doeskilling deer have to do with trailer lights.

Some people do way too much that isn't what anyone cares to hear when these guys deviate from what we were looking up 42 much going on unrelated to what we were looking for when we jumped on here although some of it can be nice but it's not appropriate to always have some people just talking like this although beautiful it's not what we're looking for

Just curious. Why do people put a video of something completely different in the beginning like you did just to post a video ??! Why do people have to watch a 60 second video before just watching a video. I mean its great that you like all that but why not just make the video about what the RU-vid viewers are looking at it for ??

You should have linked in the description how to get that specific harness

It would be good to just go straight to showing how to do something. Instead of showing everything before that has nothing to do with the topic. Then if people want to they can watch the hunting and fishing at the end!

Talked for 5 minutes before you got to how to install. Why?
