Trailer electric connectors - Where from ?

[datamile]

In classic school boy homework excuse, the damn dog choose today to chew the electrical connector off my trailer, and mangle the electrics.

It was a 7 pin round into a flat seven small pin.

Can someone confirm that this is the wire colours ?

1. yellow, left flasher
2. black, reverse or auxillary power
3. white, earth
4. green, right flasher
5. blue, electric brakes/service brakes
6. red, brake lights
7. brown, park/tail lights (On a round 7 pin, its the centre pin)

I have two sets of wires with a set going down each side) , each of 5 ( yellow,white, green, red, brown ), and then these were joined in colour pairs and wired into the 7 pin round.

Can tell me where I can get a naked 7 pin flat connector ( bunning, bcf , boat yard ) - Brissy south side, so I can get it back up running for the weekend.

Get that 7 pin from super cheap, or Kmart or older servo's

OK, so they sell the bare connectors as well as the convertors. Looks like late night shopping for me tomorrow at kmart vicky point

Repco if on your travels will have them also. They might even be cheaper than S/C I bought some re-settable 20 Amp circuit breakers there last weekend when wiring my electric brakes up. And they were cheaper at Repco by a mile.

The colours are correct. You can buy one from just about anywhere but expect to pay 15 odd dollars from supacheap. Active fabrication at beenleigh has them for about $3 each.

Thanks everyone. lets hope the damm dog didn't much more of cable otherwise it'll be cable replacement as well.

oh i forgot to mention just because that is the correct way to wire doesn't mean all trailers are wired like that. Many times i have seen yellow and green reversed and brown and red reversed. Also sometimes black is used instead of brown.... Just to confuse you a little further :)
