Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / RVs / May 2005Jayco 6 pin wiring harness?
Hey all- After talking to a lot of people "guessing" at both the dealership and a Jayco customer service, I figured I'd try here. The jayco popups have that 6 pin rectangular connector. I know what a 7 pin can handle, and it stands to reason that the 6 pin will have one function missing. I figured with a 7 pin on a popup application you'd have the following functions: Right turn Left turn Tail lights Ground Electric brakes Reverse lights Charge wire Can anyone tell me what the 6 pins are for? Thanks, Korey Ok, I'm replying to my own post, but maybe someone can tell me if this is correct. Looking at the pictures of the popups, I don't see any reverse lights - is this in fact the case? I basically just want to make sure I can have both brakes and a charge wire. Korey > Ok, I'm replying to my own post, but maybe someone can tell me if this > is correct.

I have heard of it being wired as reverse lights or as center brake lights, but the reverse lights or center brake lights were added by the person(s) using it as such. On my trailer (2000 Coleman/Fleetwood Bayside), 6 of the 7 pins are wired, the center "Aux" pin is not used.

With a seven pin connector you have a connection for back up lights. On a six pin connector the charge wire will be the black AUX wire. The brake wire will be a blue ST wire coming from your brake controller. Take care and Happy Campin...

Hi, On a six pin plug the connections for RV wiring are: GD White Wire = Ground TM Green Wire = Running Lights LT Red Wire = Left Turn/Brake lights RT Brown Wire = Right Turn/Brake lights ST Blue Wire = Brake Controller Aux Black Wire = Power For an ASME plug the wiring is slightly different. GD White=Ground TM Brown=Running lights LT Yellow=Left Turn/Brake RT Green=Right Turn/Brake ST Blue=Brake Control Aug Black=Power Take care and Happy Campin... RichA "We Get Too Soon Olde and Too Late Smart" Thank you all, gentlemen. That was exactly the info I was looking for. Much appreciated. I figure on putting a 7 pin round connector on the truck, since I've seen plenty of adaptors from 7 pin to smaller trailer connectors, but none the reverse way. Tomorrow I'm going into the Jayco dealership and taking the plunge on a new Jayco 1006! Korey > Thank you all, gentlemen. That was exactly the info I was looking for. > Much appreciated.

Do that and staywith convention without the requirement of an adapter. We love our 10' Jayco, much more than the previous 12' we had.
