I did not want to play god with the trailer harness on the Spyder and I did not want to play god with the harness on the trailer so I decided to make my own interface module
Here is how I did it.
42779bought this tongue harness from the dealer. This is what goes into the tongue of the 622 trailer and has a connector that plugs into the main wiring of the 622. About $110
42780bought this 6 pin trailer hitch connector. About $10
42782took apart the 6 pin connector, pulled out my handy dandy wiring diagram for both the Spyder and the trailer and began wiring up the interface together
42781another look at the harness connector
42778This here is the interface module for the new trailer 9 pin to 6 pin interface left me two wires that where not used Orange and Yellow.

This project has only been tested in as far as continuity of the connection is true through a volt meter. I get the Trailer in April and that is when the real test happens.

This project can be easily done with a 4 pin connector
