It is best to check your pinout under Wiring

This cable has a different pinout than my original cable. Something fried in my RV and now I have no turn signals. Buy something else.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Functionality

Not like the picture

Ordered the second one hoping it will be different. The first had molded plastic tips on both ends. The second shows a molded plastic end and a metal end. Got molded plastic ends again. Molded ends have a short lifespan of around 2 weeks. NOT A HAPPY AMAZON!

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Crumpled

poor quality of towing products and winches

POS Block received and something rattles in the 7 spade fork. Upgrade to 2 stars for an easy return. I wasn't concerned with what's causing the rumble or if it's affecting its performance. When it comes to whether the taillights work or not, I'm not taking any chances.

Pros
  • Alright!
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Bought to replace

The power cord on our motorhome was frayed and after being in tow for more than 5 years it became frayed and needed replacing. I've researched where I can find one like the Blue Ox at an affordable price and Revain found the best price. The cable fits perfectly and works great.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • There are cons

Ideal length for a towed jeep.

Much better for towing my Jeep behind an RV. The wiring harness for my hitch included wires that can detect and potentially interfere when turning. It's plug and play to go from my 4 pin wiring to my 7 pin wiring in my RV. And the spiral wiring keeps it connected without getting in the way.

Pros
  • Durable Test Results
Cons
  • General Information

Metal pins are missing

We have purchased this new 7-4 core electric cable for our Blue Ox towing system which has been in use for 4 years. Due to the coronovirus we couldn't go as fast as we planned. We finally started at the end of May. Only to find that the cable we bought didn't have all the pins in the connector! Two outer AND important middle ones are missing (see picture). We contacted Blue Ox as it is no longer in the main return box. We hope they do the right thing and replace him. Otherwise we have to buy…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Boring Package

Nice cable, expensive and miswired

After spending the morning diagnosing problems between this cable and my dinghy connection, I discovered that the problem was with this cable. Two pins on the 4-pin connector were not connected. They have been stripped but not attached to their screw terminals. In addition, the left and right turn cables were crossed. The blue strands were "white", "black", "yellow" and "red". On the seven-pin connector, pin 1 is ground, pin 3 is the running light, pin 5 is the left turn, and pin 6 is the right

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • protection
