Re: trailer plug

Taillights/running lights are running lights. They don't care where they get their electricity from. If you are talking about taillights ( brown wire) , it will work. You can splice them together. <br /><br />If however you have a tow vehicle with separate signal lights, or if your trailer has brakes, then the wiring is a bit different.

here in Fla, walmart has the 5 wire. 1ground, 2 right turn, 3 left turn, 4&5 running tail light. 4 &5 just runs into the same same pin connector.

I did not see one at my local walmart my colors are, white green,green/brown, yellow, yellow/brown, I figured I could splice the browns together and make it work with the 4 wire?

Re: trailer plug

You can splice the green/brown tail light wire and the yellow/brown tail light wire together. White is ground. Yellow is left turn/stop. green is right turn/stop.
