VIDEOClick to see full answer. Similarly one may ask, what is the color code for trailer wiring?Brown wire to the tail or parking lights. Green wire to right turn signal/brake light. Yellow wire to the left turn signal/brake light. White wire to common or chassis ground.Secondly, how do you hook up reverse lights on a trailer? To connect back up lights you need to have a 7-way trailer connector on both your trailer and tow vehicle. On a 7-way the reverse lights are powered by the center pin. To connect reverse lights to the trailer’s 7-way you can use 16 gauge wire # 16-1-1, or 14 gauge # DW07550-1 if you have a longer trailer. Then, how do you wire a car for towing? Procedure Ground the white wire from the converter to a clean, metal surface on the tow vehicle chassis. Using a circuit tester, find the factory wires that carry the brake lights, running lights and right turn and left turn signals on the tow vehicle. How do you wire trailer lights with electric brakes?If the trailer wiring is running down the left side of the trailer, then we splice the left side brake assemblies into the main electric brake power wire coming from the 7-way connector. We then run a jumper wire from the electric brake power wire to the right side brake assemblies (see photo).
