Numbers is what is on plugs... With proper wire color to it... Signal and light(s) on right of it are for trailer lights...

• Always best to take the white wire at bike end directly to battery with proper ring terminal...
• Quick connect terminals work IF they are not in direct moisture...
• It's best to wire under seat when you can...
• Connect the trailer wire harness from back bumper, follow the frame up and secure wires with tie raps...
• Enter wires under seat.
• Always connect colored wires to proper wires on bike behind last plug connector going out to the fender lights...

WIRING

4 -WIRE PLUG on Bike or Vehicle to 5-Wire trailer...

1. You will need a flat 4 plug on trailer replacing the 5-wire...
2. Will need to change yellow signal lights to red...
3. Bike plug should be connected with white wire to bike ground, I perfer to battery...
4. Bike yellow is left turn,. Bike green is right turn and Bike brown is running...

NEXT the Trailer...

1. Cut off 5-wire 5 plug... Install 4-wire plug with in line butt crimp splice with heat shrink over it...
2. Connect white to white. NOT to trailer. White is the ground for lights...
3. Yellow to yellow.
4. Green to green.
5. Brown to brown.
6. Red wire Does Not get connected to anything... Be sure it's taped...

Read On...

This is the way the trailer lights will now work...

• The red lights are now only running lights...
• The yellow lights are now both stop and signal lights ...
• Both yellow lense as on right trailer will now have to be changed to red...
• Or light will need to be changed to red if a sealed oblong light like above or round light like below is on trailer...All States, brake light must be red...
•  
• IF left signal is on and brakes at same, the signal will flash and opposite lite will stay on, on the outside lights...
• The inside red lights is now only running lights...
• Lights will not work if #6 above red wire is connected in any way...
•  

Important Notes:

1. I use in line crimp found at any automotive or department stores, as well as heat shrink...
2. Try and use greese filled style crimps... If you can.t, than put a little greese on wires, or vaseoline...
3. Greese keeps moisture from wires which saves problems later...
4. Sleeve heat shrink on wires before crimping...
5. If no heat shrink, than tape with good plastic tape...
6. All States and Canada... Yellow can not be used for stop lights... That is why lights have to be changed to red from yellow or amber...

Time Out Trailers 2012 & newer  has added a 5-wire flat plug on all their trailers with all red lights on back...

•  5 wire plug to 5 wire plug
• With the 5-wire plug and 5-wire on bike or car you have separate outside running lights and separate brake lights...
• Inside lights are your left and right turn signal
•  
• This trailer plug can now also plug into a 4 wire tipical truck plug on most trucks or vehicles with no separate signal lights...
• The lights with a 5-wire on trailer into 4-wire on vehicle will now work like this...
•  

• With 5 wire plug, this means you have seperate lights on trailer to operate each signal light. Other light  is a running light and brake light, each side. signal lights can be either red or yellow.
•  
• With 4 wire system there is no blue wire. all lights on back are red
• Your yellow wire is left turn signal and also your brake light.
• Green wire is right signal light and also your brake light.
• When 4 wire is plugged into 5 wire all lights on back of trailer must be all red. Can not have yellow used as a brake light.
