    Default Need trailer wiring info

    Have a new 2017 F-3 Limited with trailer hitch and plug. F-3 has 4 wire square plug, my trailer is a five wire Aluma trailer. How do I convert from 4 wire to 5 wire?, HELP

    So first is your trailer truly a 5 wire? Amber turn signal lights. If so you have a couple options.

    1. Rewire your trailer to 4 wire. You do that by abandoning the amber turn signal lights. Splitting the brake lights into left and right circuits. That will become combined brake/left turn and brake/right turn lights.

    2. You can purchase a 2 to 3 converter. That will split the combined brake/turn wires from into separate brake, turn signal wires. Then either wire that into your trailer or custom build an adapter to go between you Spyder and trailer.

    CarID.com or ebay? search 4 square to 5 round adapter. and B-Bam there it is

    4 square vehicle side to 5 round trailer side adapter. I am fresh on the subject because I am thinking about an aluma also.
