Plug wiring is not standard

The lines in the molded plug are not connected to the standard 7-wire trailer plug. The installation took longer because the cables were not up to standard. seems good (time will tell) but the frustration of having to check each wire to see where it goes in the connector makes this a 2 star product for me.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Negative impression

That thing is great

I was able to easily connect all the light bulbs in my trailer with this junction box. It's waterproof and you can easily color-code all your cables and add more with O-ring end connectors. It even comes with self-tapping screws to attach to your trailer. makes it easy to add more lights or even reversing lights to your trailer

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Older model

wrong color code

Everything about this kit appeared to be of very good quality until I started installing it. I used this with a service trailer and completely rewired the entire trailer. The only problem I had was that the color coding was wrong. This is easy to fix if you have a multimeter to check for continuity. All other parts of this kit felt "heavy duty", hope they last.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Works as intended. best trailer accessory

Got this for my old Coleman pop up camper where the previous owner cut the 6 pin plug and I had to install an extension cord. THE WIRE COLORS AND WIRING ON MY F-150'S FACTORY 7-PIN JACK WAS PROPER AND CORRECT. This seems to be an issue with some other similar electrical wiring products where people in the reviews had to cut off the molded connector and buy a replacement. Installation was easier than I thought, the screws easily went through the steel frame even though there were only two of…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

quality and value! - Hardware

This 7 way trailer kit is great value for money, 8 foot cable, pre-wired junction box and trailer switch are included. The attached schematic and all self-tapping screws are the icing on the cake. Of course, time will tell how this cable holds up with extended use, but if fit and finish is any measure of this company's quality control, I don't expect any problems for some time. I'm not one to praise the product but to be honest I'm a former owner/driver and in my 40 years in the trucking…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Simple app and looks like a professional setup!

It was very easy to install, I want to take a before and after photo to show how well it got rid of a rat's nest I had under a 5 wheel RV, that I recently bought. The only drawback is the missing seal around the lid, which can lead to water problems depending on the installation location. I would give 5 stars but the nut on the brake lug on the blue trailer was cross-threaded from the factory and of course it was the last wire I attached so I had to add some washers to the back because it came…

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Mostly good but...

Bought to replace a braid on my trailer that was mangled by a couple of buddies who borrowed it. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality. It was very easy to install, only two holes were drilled to install a waterproof junction box which was a nice touch. It also came with a part to plug in the end of the plug when you are storing the trailer to keep it from being pulled. lying on the ground or being run over before it is connected, or if someone is towing a trailer without connecting the…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Vanish
