Trailer Wiring Harness
Basic Trailer Wiring
The trailer wiring harness, with a seven-pin
connector, is at the rear of the vehicle and
is tied to the vehicle's frame. The harness
requires the installation of a trailer
connector, which is available through your
dealer.
Use only a round, seven-wire connector with
flat blade terminals meeting SAE J2863
specifications for proper electrical
connectivity.
The seven-wire harness contains the
following trailer circuits:
.Yellow: Left Stop/Turn Signal
.Green: Right Stop/Turn Signal
.Brown: Tail/Parking Lamps
.White: Trailer Ground
.Red: Stop Lamp Supply Voltage
.Black: Back Up Lamp Supply Voltage
.Blue: Service BrakesThe fuse for the electric trailer brake circuit
is in the engine compartment fuse block,
but the wires may not be connected. They
should be connected by your dealer or a
qualified service center. To control electric
trailer brakes, a trailer brake controller needs
to be installed on the vehicle by your dealer
or a qualified service center. See electric
brake control wiring provisions.
If a battery outside the vehicle is being
charged, place the vehicle in Tow/Haul
Mode. This will boost the vehicle system
voltage and properly charge the battery.
If the trailer is too light for Tow/Haul Mode,
turn on the non-HID only headlamps as a
second way to boost the vehicle system
voltage and charge the battery.
