Trailer Wiring Harness

Your vehicle may be equipped with the seven-wire
trailer towing harness. This harness has a seven-pin
universal heavy-duty trailer connector (if equipped with
the trailering package) that is attached to a bracket
on the hitch platform. If your vehicle is not equipped with
the heavy-duty trailer connector, you may purchase
one from your dealer.

The seven-wire harness contains the following trailer
circuits:

Yellow: Left Stop/Turn Signal

Dark Green: Right Stop/Turn Signal

Brown: Running Lamps

White: Ground

Light Green: Back-up Lamps

Red: Battery Feed

Dark Blue: Electric Brakes

If you need to tow a light-duty trailer with a standard
four-way round pin connector, an adapter connector is
available from your dealer.

If you are charging a remote (non-vehicle) battery, turn
on the headlamps to boost the vehicle system voltage
and properly charge the battery.

Your vehicle may also be equipped with wiring for an
electric trailer brake controller. These wires are located
inside the vehicle on the driver’s side under the
instrument panel. These wires should be connected to
an electric trailer brake controller by your dealer or
a qualified service center.
