Additional Heavy-Duty
Wiring
A eight-wire harness is stored under the rear end of your
vehicle. The five-wire light-duty harness is located at
the left hand rear inner lower quarter panel. The
additional heavy-duty wiring is located forward of the
rear bumper and is attached to the center of the rear
crossmember or
the
forward vertical surface of the
platform hitch (if equipped).
This harness has a
30
amp battery feed wire and no
connector, and should be wired by a qualified electrical
technician. After choosing an aftermarket mating
connector pair, have the technician attach one connector
to the eight-wire trailer harness and the other connector
to
the
wiring harness on the trailer. Be sure that the
wiring harness on the trailer is strapped to the trailer’s
frame and leave it loose enough
so
that the wiring
doesn’t bend or break, but not
so
loose that it drags on
the ground. The technician can use the following color
code chart when connecting the wiring harness
to
your trailer.
