R&P Service Insight
Round trailer connectors may look similar while using different pin arrangements, mounting patterns or plug genders. Compare the existing connector carefully before replacement.
- Confirm Plug Gender: This listing is for the female connector installed on the truck side.
- Measure the Bracket: The mounting holes are spaced 2-7/8 inches center to center.
- Check the Pin Pattern: The mating trailer plug must use a compatible 6-way round-pin configuration.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Designed for use with a compatible 6-way round-pin male trailer plug. Connector shape alone does not confirm the internal wiring arrangement.
Vehicle / System Fit: Used as the female truck-side connection in compatible 12–24-volt truck-and-trailer electrical systems.
Installation Notes: Disconnect electrical power before installation. Follow the terminal markings and verify every circuit against the tow vehicle and trailer wiring before applying power.
Performance Insight: Correct pin assignment is essential because differently wired connectors can place power, lighting, brake or auxiliary functions on different terminals.

R&P Repair Insight
When replacing a trailer connector, record the existing wire locations before disconnecting the old unit. Do not rely on wire color alone, since trailer and tow-vehicle wiring may have been repaired or modified previously.
- Map Each Circuit: Identify the function of every wire before transferring it to the marked terminals.
- Inspect the Wiring: Check for damaged insulation, corrosion or loose wire ends before assembly.
- Test Before Towing: Confirm all connected trailer functions after installation and before road use.
