Tip: It is easier to run the trailer’s wire before installing the wheels. You will install the
wheels in STEP 3.

STEP 2: WIRE ASSEMBLY


Note: when standing at the back of the trailer looking toward the front, with the
trailer still inverted, the wiring harness bundle with the YELLOW wire will be threaded

along the DRIVER’S side (right side when looking at the trailer upside-down) to the

brake/signal light, and the bundle with the GREEN wire will be threaded along the

PASSENGER’S side (left side) to the brake/signal light.

RUN WIRE

a. Locate the second rib back from the front of the trailer. (The only rib that has

an entry hole and flat bracket). While facing the front of the trailer, push

the wiring harness (11) through the eye in the rib, and run the harness with

the yellow wire inside the rib to your right, and the harness with the green

wire to your left.

b. Insert the hollow, round plug into the eye of the rib plate bracket. (This

prevents the wires from rubbing directly against the frame). Leave the plug

exposed. (The plug will connect to the tongue wire in STEP 5).

c. Fish the wires through the washers attached along the rib until the wires

reach the side of the trailer.

d. Where the wire bundles split, run the green and yellow bundles along their

respective sides of the trailer, through the frame’s washers, and back to the

tail/brake light positions, and then run the brown and white wires to the

running light position on each corner of the trailer. Pull the wires through the
holes on the sides of the trailer in preparation for light connection.
