INSTALLING THE TRAILER’S CONNECTOR WIRING
Take the trailer’s design into account when wiring. A trailer with moving parts, such as a pop-up tent trailer or a folding
bed trailer, can damage harness wires placed in the wrong location.
Parts Required:
• 4-Way Flat Connector (Trailer End) with 23 ft Wire Harness Set
• Splitter Wire Connector x 2
• Wire Nut Connector x 4
Optional materials (available at Princess Auto Ltd.)
• Electrical tape
• Shrink tubing
• Putty/Sealant
1. Select mounting locations at the rear of the trailer for the tail lights so that they are to the extreme left and
right edges of the trailer 15 to 60 in. (38 to 152 cm) above the road surface.
When installed, the lens surface must be visible a minimum of 45 degrees to the right and left and 20
degrees from above or below the trailer.
2. The left rear light (driver side) has a clear window for the licence plate illuminator with the window
facing down.
Push the bolts through the slots on the narrow end of licence plate bracket. Insure that the angled portion
of the licence bracket faces the clear window. Attach this light and bracket to the driver’s side of the trailer
using the lock washer and nut.
3. Attach the right rear light (passenger side) to the passenger’s side of the trailer in the same manner.
4. Position the 4-way trailer end connector at the tongue of the trailer. Provide enough slack to allow for
vehicle maneuvering. Attach the white wire to a grounded location on the trailer. Ensure the end of the white
wire is stripped to permit a metal-to-metal connection. Secure the stripped wire to the trailer frame with the
included metal screw.
5. Run the yellow wire and one brown wire along driver’s side of the trailer frame and connect to the left rear
light. Secure the wires along the frame using metal frame clips.
6. Run the green wire and one brown wire along passenger’s side of the trailer frame and connect to the right
rear light. Secure the wires along the frame using metal frame clips.
7. Mount the front side marker lights in the areas shown on the Parts Breakdown diagram. Connect the marker
light wire to the brown harness wire with a blue wire splitter connector. Repeat on the other side off the
trailer, connecting to the brown wire harness.
8. Connect the male and female 4-way connectors.
9. Reconnect the vehicle battery.
10. Test the brakes and turn signals to confirm the wiring is correct.
11. Seal any holes drilled for installation with putty or a sealant.
Trailers over 80 in. (203 cm) wide will also need three red markers that are not included in this kit.
Mount the three red marker lights to rear of trailer making sure that the lamps are between 6 in. to 12 in.
from the lamp center to lamp center. After lamps are mounted, use wire nut connectors to connected all
three leads together and then connect to the brown harness wire in the back of the tail light on either side.
