Trailer Wiring Adapter

cbxjeff

My son picked up a new car hauler a week ago for me. The trailer has brakes so it has the 7 pin connector. My truck has the old 6 pin flat connector. Does anyone make an adapter for that? Naturally the brakes wouldn't work but the lights should.

Thanks guys,

Your Local U-Haul Place, Your Local Auto Parts Store, Your Local Truck Parts store, Your Local RV Service Place, and more, will Likely have the required Adaptors...

Is it that the brakes wouldn't work or that it does not have a charge line? Now that I think about it if it has brakes it needs to have both to keep the break away battery charged.

OK, once again Jeff didn't make himself clear! I bought a new Silverado a couple of years ago (which I no longer have) and bought an adapter to fit the 7 pin connector on the truck to the 4 pin flat connector on my little trailer. I have the opposite situation here. The trailer is 7 pin & the truck is 4 pin. My hope was to have the lights on the trailer working on the trip home.

You need one of these. Walmart sells them.
