I have a 2010 RTS, recently puchased hitch and electronic module, has anyone found female adapter and harness to apply to four pronge plug, I built my trailer with four prong plug, thanks
Don't forget the special crimper needed for the pins, and the plugs for the unused holes. Another alternative is to puchase the BRP Trailer Tongue Harness P/N 710002029, and wire it in. I don't know of anyone who has successfully added a converter to enable use of a 4-pole trailer. Easiest way out is to add a set of turn signals (or brake lights) to the trailer, and wire it for 5-wire use. Note that BRP uses two separate brake light wires, too. You can tap either for the brake lights, but you cannot use the turn signal wires to provide the brake function, as on a typical 4-wire trailer. Here is a pinout diagram for the RT trailer wiring.Digikey Part number is 889-1060-ND Amphenol part number is AHD16-9-96S This for the plug, now for the required pins you will need Digikey part number is 889-1051-1-ND and the Amphenol part number is AT62-14-0122. This will mate up with the plug on the RT from a factory/Dealer installed Can Am Trailer Hitch.
I haven't found one anywhere. That's why I used the BRP harness. You could make do with some RTV silicone and some 50% heatshrink sleeve, but it won't look as nice. You could also make do with some self-vulcznizing rubber tape, but that is also kinda crude.Hi Guys,
I ordered all the individual parts from Digi-key and got everything hooked up and working great but I still need the part the screws on the back of the plug to protect the wires, I think it's called a boot/strain relief. Does anyone have a part number that would work on this plug????
Thanx
Steve
Good work! :thumbup:I found it!!!!! A rubber boot to put the finishing touch to the harness.

Ladd also has the other parts to make up a plug too.........
ON TO THE NEXT PROJECT!!!!!!!
That is correct. The trailer module has apparently been modified to provide only 4-wire output (Running, RT Turn/Brake, LF Turn/Brake, & Ground). Many thanks to Anita for working through this and figuring it out.FYI to all - this pin-out diagram is not accurate for all :spyder2:s. It definitely wasn't for my 2011 RT-S. On my :spyder2: The left and right turn signal and brake lights ran off of the same lines (orange=left flasher/left brake, red=right flasher/right brake). The blue and green wires tested with no power. :dontknow:
