Idaho BS thread in the PNW

What do you mean? On your truck or on the trailer. Its just 4 wires into a flat plug. White, brown, yellow, and green. White is ground, brown is running lights, yellow and green are signals.

 

right under the bed behind the bumper.

 

Again, what side do you mean? The trailer should come with the 4 flat trailer wire. So im guessing your talking about your truck?

You need a trailer harness converter. You buy it at a trailer store or auto parts store. Looks like this



Except this one is designed for electric brakes. You can see how the right side of it says "car" All you do is splice the wires into your taillight. Match the colors and ground it on the frame. Then run the trailer end out the bottom of the taillight (should be a hole) and test it.

 

If you think you might have one. Check under your bumper near your hitch for the 4 colored wires and a plug. If its not there, pull out your left taillight and see if its glued to the inside of the housing

If you need anymore help man, feel free to ask. Ive done alot of these, and its definetly not common knowledge.

 

Not the plug itself but the wires. All you do is splice the wires from the converter and match the colors. Brown marker lights. Left is yellow. Right is green. White is ground

 

Could be wrong but im pretty sure you can just splice it...wait for Ian tho Im sure he knows better than I.

 

No.

You need the converter. Please dont light your truck on fire..

 

I stand corrected lol.

 

Did you get a converter, its vehicle specific. Sounds like its not word right. Is it properly grounded?

 

Where do you work? they have a website?

 

I work at BarT5 Trailers & Equipment. Website is Bart5.ca

We sell Cargomate trailers based out of indepence Oregon and snake river trailers out of caldwell idaho.

 

Thanks, I just checked it out. It would not let me open the equipment and car hauler page. I am looking for a 18' car hauler.

 

Mark I know you and your BFFFFF don't like the Gs300 but. It's got a 2JZ in it so suck it.

 

We're a small buisness. So the website might not be up to date. What capacity are you looking for?

We have one 18' equipment trailer left. Its rated at 14,000lbs and has flip up ramps. $5200 CAD

We also have 16' car haulers rated at 7000lbs for $2800

 

I dont know what to say to that. Ground is the most common problem

 

You probly clipped you reverse lights in the taillight

 

Ya if I was there I could probly solve it on 5mins

 

I offered to come help you ben

now you are on your own.

 

That is really weird Ben. I'm surprised it would make your reverse lights go out where it is just spliced in.

 

That's way too much trailer for what I need. I only need a 700lb trailer. I would prefer an 18'. The truck is just a little too long for a 16'. It works on a 16' but that gives me no room to play with.
