trailer wiring problems
i am trying to install the 7 pin plug in to connect to my camper and the jacka@# who owned the truck before me decided that before he traded it in he would cut out all of the wiring in the back for trailers and now im trying to wire it all together. but the problem is that the yellow/pink wire does not have power and thats all the way up to the fuse box and back out the other side!!!!!!!!!!!!! please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!: argh:: scare2:

I never messed with the wiring, but wiring a 7 pin is pretty simple and straightforward. You need a power wire, ground wire, brake control, turn signals, parking lights and brakes. If he ripped everything out you may want to just start over and run your own wiring for power and brake controller. You also don't want to chance something burning up because of his mistakes. It sucks rewiring on the side of the road or riding with the 4 ways on til you can stop. Otherwise, grab a multimeter, have a friend work the turn and stop lights and find the correct wires. You will also have to find where the power wire is shorted out. Can you post any pics of what all he ripped out?

Well I found 3 fuses that have no power on either side and their for the rear left and right blinker and parking lights I talked to the local dodge service rep and he said that it was my "tip'm" and that I have to replace the fuse box, it's $850......... Anybody have this problem or know what to do??????????? Thanks!!!
