What’s the difference between a 7 way plug for a utility trailer and a 7 way plug for an RV? That’s a good question! There is one very distinct and important difference. The TrailerSmith covers that very thing in this video!

I've wired them before, but never used eyelets. Great idea! Thanks

ImI’m 62 years old and have worked on trailers my whole life. Your videos are great! I wish everyone that works on trailers could see this!

I am 69 and I agree. Thank you for doing these. You tend to forget stuff as you get older. BTW it's called a ring terminal when you go to buy the connectors.

Very good video. I watched 2 of your videos on trailer tires and then found this one. I needed to know where the reverse wire went. Thanks for your help to me and all the folks that watched. I also just Subscribed.

I like your videos, to the point and very helpful. I bought one of the prewired 7 way with junction box (same manufacture as in your link) The colors are not correct for my car trailer, so I will just have to make a "key" of the colors and how they will be connected so I have it for future use for troubleshooting. There seems to be many different color options, not much is standard lol.

What about no junction box? How do I best attach and secure my wires to the cord?

Hello, can I use the Pin 2 (Electric Brake) to light up a LED Stop Light in order to have saparated led light for brakes and turn L/R leds?

So, you installed a junction box and hooked the trailer cord to the box with easy color coded studs......but never hooked the trailer wires to the box . That's the hard part, especially when the trailer wires aren't color coded or numbered . I hope you have another video on the wiring on a utility trailer . I assume you're talking about the commercial highway trailer 7 way plug, which I use both for my RV trailer and my platform utility trailer . I despise the RV industry for not using the commercial highway plug , of which much more utilized in industry . PS, I'm colorblind .

Yes. I explained in the video why the trailer wires are not run to the box. The video is to demonstrate how to wire a 7 way plug for RV application. The first video ever done on this channel was to wire a 7 way plug for utility trailer.
