GM trucks are prewired foe 4 wire trailer harness go to Autozone or other parts house and you can buy a direct plug in harness. GM just tapes the connector around the rear area near bumper on the harness.

SOURCE: Wiring diagram

If you are going from a 4 pin on your trailer to the 7 pin on the truck. You need to go to parts store or a department store (ex Wal Mart) and look in trailer section and find the adapter. Thats what I did. Also Remember if your lights don't work on trailer, check the plug to make sure its tight or check the fuse under your drivers side rear seat for that fuse box.

Check connection and ground. Since the brake light pin on your wiring harness has power, check that the wiring harness ground pin has zero ohms to ground. If the harness is good and the hitch light works on a battery, then there is either a bad connection from the pin to the hitch light or from hitch light to ground.

You should not have to rewire anything.
Hitch wires are just "pig-tailed" on to the original vehicle wiring. Just cut off the hitch wires cleanly and tape the cut end.
You have probably burned out the stop and tail lamp fuses also. Read you owner manual for fuse location.

I can't look up your wiring diagram because I don't know model year?
On some makes and models, the lower brake lites are wired through the multifunction switch. Your turn and stop use the same bulb filament, just not at the same time. On a left turn, the left turn signal works, but the brake lite on the left doesn't. Now, the brake lamp on the right does work. The high mount brake lite also will work. The highmount brake lite is usually wired differently than the lower brake lites.
W/o being able to look at wiring diagram, I don't know if my info is applicable on your vehicle? I need model year.
Not finding what you are looking for?
