1997 Explorer XLT SOHC - Trailer Adapter Wiring

Oct 09, 2007 1 Replies

Hello all. I need to replace the trailer wiring harness that runs from the right rear bumper connector to the center of the rear bumper. The 4-wire flat connector has finally corroded. I guess I could just cut it off and splice a new flat-4, but I don't want to deal with shrink/heat wrap, soldering, etc. to keep it waterproof in salty winters.



Does anyone know the part # I need for this wiring harness? Any aftermarket brands or online source suggestions? I tried to get the info from my Ford Technical Service Publications CD, but had no luck.



Thanks for the help!


my 1998 has a round capped pigtail hanging off the left tail lamp, for which Napa has a trailer harness, just plug in and you're off....maybe different in '97 I suppose
