attempt to tap into your vehicle's hydraulic
brake system. If you do, both the vehicle
antilock brakes and the trailer brakes may
not function, which could result in a crash.
Trailer Wiring Harness
Basic Trailer Wiring
The trailer wiring harness, with a seven-pin
connector, is at the rear of the vehicle and
is tied to the vehicle's frame. The harness
requires the installation of a trailer
connector, which is available through your
dealer.
Use only a round, seven-wire connector with
flat blade terminals meeting SAE J2863
specifications for proper electrical
connectivity.
The seven-wire harness contains the
following trailer circuits:
.Yellow: Left Stop/Turn Signal
.Green: Right Stop/Turn Signal
.Brown: Tail/Parking Lamps
.White: Trailer Ground
.Red: Stop Lamp Supply Voltage
.Black: Back Up Lamp Supply Voltage
.Blue: Service BrakesThe fuse for the electric trailer brake circuit
is in the engine compartment fuse block,
but the wires may not be connected. They
should be connected by your dealer or a
qualified service center. To control electric
trailer brakes, a trailer brake controller needs
to be installed on the vehicle by your dealer
or a qualified service center. See electric
brake control wiring provisions.
If a battery outside the vehicle is being
charged, place the vehicle in Tow/Haul
Mode. This will boost the vehicle system
voltage and properly charge the battery.
If the trailer is too light for Tow/Haul Mode,
turn on the non-HID only headlamps as a
second way to boost the vehicle system
voltage and charge the battery.
Electric Trailer Brake Control Wiring
Provisions
Wiring provisions for an aftermarket electric
trailer brake controller are included with the
vehicle as part of the trailer wiring package.
The harness contains the following circuits:
These wiring provisions for an electric trailer
brake controller are included with the
vehicle as part of the trailer wiring package.
The body harness, inside the front driver
side instrument panel, contains blunt cut wires below the headlamp switch for the
electric trailer brake controller. The harness
contains the following wires:
.Blue: Electric Trailer Brakes
.Blue: Battery Feed
.White/Blue: Brake Apply Signal
.Black: Ground
Refer to the aftermarket electric trailer brake
controller owner's manual to determine wire
color coding of the electric trailer brake
controller. The wire colors on the brake
controller may be different from the vehicle.
The electric trailer brake controller should be
installed by your dealer or a qualified
service center.
Trailer Lamps
Always check all trailer lamps are working at
the beginning of each trip, and periodically
on longer trips.
Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer
When properly connected, the trailer turn
signals will illuminate to indicate the vehicle
is turning, changing lanes, or stopping.
When towing a trailer, the arrows on the
instrument cluster will illuminate even if the
trailer is not properly connected or the bulbs
are burned out.
