Can I use this spray on my trailer 7 way plug and truck connector

This is designed for "lighter" electronics such as the knobs (potentiometers or "pots") inside guitars and electrical amps. Removing the light amount of rust and oxidation from those types of electronics is different from the heavier oxidation on a 7-way trailer plug. I would remove the road grime and heavy corrosion with a wire brush before spending $20 on this.

Hi Joseph, I have used Deoxit on trailer plugs before. It is best to apply the Deoxit to both connectors and plug and unplug them several times. You may have to repeat this procedure several times to properly clean the connection. After the plugs are clean the application of deoxit ever six months or so should help prevent the forming of oxidation or corrosion.

I can't say for 100%, but I would be willing bet you can. Deoxit will clean off the oxidation on electrical contacts and help to improve the electrical connections. Just be sure that there is no electricity going through any of the wires when you decide to clean any connections. It might be a good idea to use some dialetric grease to help keep the water out of the connector and prevent corrosion after you do.

Yes, just follow the directions on the can. This contact cleaner works great.

I am sure it would do a good job of cleaning and would probably protect the contact for a time but after cleaning I would use an inhibitor grease that you should be able to get an Automotive parts store. I use inhibitor on my battery terminals as well. Hope this helps.

no. Just use butt electrical connectors on the existing wire, then put wire heat shrink around the joint and seal.

This plugged into my factory harness on my 2000 model F350. It is a 7 way plug, some trailers have different plugs... some 4-way, 6-way... etc.

Yes. The bottle states: FOR LAWN AND GARDEN Spray a generous barrier around area to be treated twice a week and after heavy rains until you notice rodents are no longer visiting the area. Continue to use as needed. I just noticed it can be used for Car, Boat, and RV wiring. ( I haven't started to use mine yet. Sounds like a good product, but I won't know till I try it. Good luck.)

This is a non-conductive silicone grease. I do not see a problem as long as you do not put grease between battery terminal and cable end. Just coat the outside.

I don't see why not but for that application I would probably go with the spray version on a new gasket.

no, my gm van had the wiring for the trailer brakes from the 7 way plug coiled up under the carpet on the drivers side, no plug just wires. The other lights etc. were factory wired to the 7 way plug. I had to make the connections for the brake controller, I think it was 3 wires, they were color coded, it was easy to install.

Hi DanYes it has a three pin pattern and the plug that came with the lights make very nice seal. I'm using on my utv. Hope you the oval mounting brackets on your trailer since it appear to need the suggest brackets.

Not sure. I did drill a hole in my RV, then ran cable through it and along the inside and finally out the front to the tounge. Then when I pull the RV I just screw the RV cable end to the cable end at the pack of my truck. I suppose if you wanted the cable on the outside you could run it along the rain gutter or the bottom of the trailer to the tounge. Sorry not much help here to you.

This setup is far superior to splicing wires. If your truck has the OEM "towing package" wiring, the pigtail plugs directly into the trucks harness. The wires at the trailer connector end are sealed to keep all the road grime out. I threw the fuses away.

Yes it can. I installed it on my 2011 F-150 Platinum with sprayed in bed liner and haven't had any problems whatsoever.

Yes. This is the plug that goes into the rear outlet on the vehicle which allows you to connect the trailer harness to. I hope this helps.

I do not think this plug will match those two. This plug fits the towbar with 7 pin, and a trailer with four pin flat.

Yes it will work but things like hair spray, Pam cooking spray or some house hold cleaners can set off the unit because it thinks there is a bad gas. You would glad it deceits gasoline or propane leaking in or near your trailer.

Jerry, The blue wire from the control to the trailer plug is the feed to the brakes on the trailer coming from the brake control unit. It supplies power to the brakes. If your tow vehicle came wired from the factory (or a dealer), you will have a hot wire going from the tow vehicle to the trailer seven pin plug for auxiliary power to a trailer independent of the brake controller, for example to run an RV's interior lights, water pump, etc. I am not sure if that wire is black but that would make sense since black generally means hot feed. Short answer, Yes you are correct.

I would not put this product through a sprayer as it is like a two part epoxy and will solidify in your machine. Apply with a hand tool, and only mix up what you can work with. This is an awesome product, which I had much success with, but read and follow the directions.
