Trailer wiring help

[Montanaboatnovice]

I need serious help. I don't know what I am doing.<br /><br />The trailer that was given to me was wired for a 4 Round connector. My truck has a 4 flat connector.<br /><br />The wires on the trailer are as follows:<br />Right side- brown and green<br />Left side- orange and yellow<br /><br />The directions on the new 4 flat trailer plug are as follows:<br />white-ground<br />brown-tail<br />yellow-left turn<br />green-right turn<br /><br />My problem is in my fumbling around I can get the directionals and the brake lights to work, but not the tail/running light? <br /><br />Any info for the novice would help. THX

Re: Trailer wiring help

this will probably be moved but-<br /><br />i would tie the orange & brown together for tail lites, then green&green - yellow&yellow, white attached to trailer for ground.<br />-<br />you can buy bothe sides from a auto store.<br />-<br />i had that same problem when i rented a uhaul, they have an adapter for $7 to $15, four pole round to flat.<br />i keep mine in my bronco all the time now.
