Towing Requirements – Trailer Lights And Wiring

Whenever you pull a trailer, regardless of the trailer size, stoplights and turn signals on the trailer are required for motoring safety.

The Trailer Tow Package may include a four and sevenpin wiring harness. Use a factory approved trailer harness and connector.

The electrical connections are all complete to the vehicle but you must mate the harness to a trailer connector.
