Ok, I know there has been a lot of posts about trailer wiring on here, but I still have a couple questions. Buying a pull behind trailer that has a 4 pin plug but my 14 RT has the older round plug in. I don't want to change the bike wiring because I have a Spyder trailer I pull behind it that uses that plug, this will be a second trailer for our winter home. Is it as simple as just building a pigtail type cord converting from the round plug to the flat 4? Can these cords be bought somewhere already made? Do I need to be concerned about anything else? Thanks much!

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

You asked this same question back in January. Finding a 9 plug could be a problem. To make sure we have things straight, does your current Spyder trailer have separate turn and brake lights? If so, it's a five wire system. If the same lights work as both turn and brake then it's a four wire system just like the trailer you want to leave in AZ. If your Spyder trailer is 4 wire the fix will be fairly simple.
So answer this question first before we go running off into a bramble bush!
ok, so we finally got a trailer bought. It is an Aluma trailer with all led lights and a flat 4 wire plug. So now I need to have a lead to plug into the bike's round 9 pin connector and the trailer's flat 4 plug. Is this something that is sold at the dealer? Thanks for the help!

You still haven't answered my question. Does your Can Am trailer have separate turn and brake lights, or is one light used for both? It's makes a difference in how to suggest a fix.
