      Hi huanqingwu, thank you for watching, When you press on your breaks, both the green and yellow wire will send a constant 12 V at the lights, that will mean that your brakes lights will be on. When your right flasher on your vehicle is on, your green wire will receive a on and off 12 V so it will make your light flash Same goes for the left side with the yellow wire. Now, if you have your brakes on and your right flasher on at the same time. Your green wire will receive on and off 12 V, and your yellow will have a constant 12 V. So the right side will flash and the other side will be constant On. Let me know if this helps 👍

    • @joetheboatguy5394
      @joetheboatguy5394 9 днів тому

      Hi VijayGocool, you can add 1-2 switch if you really want protection. But your solar panel should have a diode that will let voltage travel just one way. So your panels would only really work once your outboard is off. Hope this helps.

    Hello Great video, but I have a question. I am an RV owner and would like to connect the radio via TWO WAY switch so that the radio is normally working via the ignition, but when I am parked I turn the switch to my leisure battery which is powered form a leisure battery.I understand that I can do this so that I connect position 1 of the switch to the ignition, position 3 to the leisure battery, and the middle one to my radio. But, what do I do with the yellow wire? Is it still connected to a car battery or a leisure battery?I hope this makes sense. Thank You

    • @joetheboatguy5394
      @joetheboatguy5394 10 днів тому

      Hi zv5231, thanks for watching and nice comment. Ok if I understand, you want to install your radio in your RV but be able to use the power from the vehicle battery unless your parked and unhooked from vehicle. If that is correct, then you want to connect your yellow wire to the leisure battery that is always in your RV. When ever your yellow wire is disconnected you will lose your setting in radio (like clock or programmed stations) that is why I say to have it connected with the RV battery 👍 Hope this helps

What I am trying to ask is if I leave yellow connected to the car battery and red is feeding from the leisure battery via a two-way switch is it going to drain the car battery or is the majority of power coming from red and yellow just to keep losing memory in the radio ect.

      hello, Red wire will turn radio on and use more of the power. The yellow wire is mostly to keep your setting in radio, but without the yellow wire your radio will not start. Ok with your new explanation and video. I would connect the yellow on vehicle battery since in reality your radio will never be disconnected from vehicle battery. I though you wanted to install your radio in a camper with can disconnect from vehicle but that is not your case :)

      Hi pilipoff, thanks for watching. OK here we go, when you are set to BOTH position. startup battery and deep cycle it can be done but it can cause a loss of life of both batteries due to the differences in capacities and charge rates. That is why I say its not a good option but totally doable if needed. :) If I don't mention that it can possibly cause issues, my comment area would be full of people saying that it can cause problems LOL.

If you have 2 x 24V 150ah batteries in series it will add up to 48V at 150ah. If you have 6 x 24V 150ah batteries in parallel you will have 24V at 900 ah. Hope this helps :)

    Hello, thank you for the nice and understandable video. I have a problem in my boat that goes in roughly the same direction. So I installed three more batteries for the installation of my depth sounders. All three batteries have their own circuit. I only have very little space available and that's why I had to carry out the installation like this. I now want to create a potential equalization via ground. Is it possible to incorporate these necessary extensions/changes into this plan as an example? Or can you please explain the necessary changes to me in writing? Greetings from Germany Christian

      Hi brod. Thanks for watching both batteries will get charged, but since they have different amperage in the long run, it might affect the batteries.

Is that right? if that’s the case, then the bolts of your lights are your ground which are connected on your trailer which is grounded that way. On your 4 pin in the front, of the trailer you still need to connect your white wire on the frame to ground the rest of the lights. Check the video at 1 min 9 sec, I talk about some lights not having the ground wire. Let me know if this is right. Hope this helps. 👍

On your computer keyboard, depress the Alt button on the lower left simultaneously with the Print Screen button (upper right of keyboard to the right of the F12 button). This will capture the image on the screen. Then open Microsoft Word and select a blank page (if there are other options). When it opens, , click Ctrl and V on your keyboard simultaneously. This will paste the wiring diagram onto the blank page. Now select Layout in the blue bar at the top. Click on Orientation and select Landscape. This will rotate the page 90 degrees. Click on Margins (to the left of Orientation) and choose margins that are 0.5 inches top, bottom, and both sides. Click on the pasted diagram and dots will appear at the top, bottom, right and left sides, and corners. You may now click and hold the bottom right corner of the diagram and drag it down and to the right to fill the page.

    Which wire goes with the blue wire? Between the big wire , the pink ignition wire,white and brown wires, green wires, light blue wires, and yellow and brown wires? I found the navy blue wire lose and the radio does not give off sound. There is one black wire connected to the big brown wire.

      Hi babeadams, thanks for watching, the white wire is your ground wire. Most people just connected the white wire to trailer frames (unless you have a plastic trailer non conductive LOL) so your trailer becomes the ground. If you already passed your ground wire all the way on both side then this is even better. That is the right way to do it, its just more wire. Let me know if this helps.

      @joetheboatguy5394 i just can't think what I'm not doing correctly. I'm using my twelve vote battery jumper pack, it is fully charged. I have checked all wires for continuity.I have no problem there. I promise this will be the last time I bother you

      Hey babeadams, it's no bother. I have a youtube channel to try to help people, don't be shy to ask :) Do you have a multi-meter? Make sure you have your 12V coming out of your battery pack. Sorry, I'm starting with basic. You might already have done this. But I'm not there so I don't know. If you do have your 12V coming out of your battery pack, then tell me what exactly is not working? example Brake lights, taillights or all lights.

    There never was a backup lamp wire in the 7 way it was meant to be used for auxiliary battery charging such as the 12 volt battery in your camper for the fridge and lights this way you didn't kill the tow vehicle battery. The trailer brake battery is on a separate circuit as it is dedicated for that area only. Back in the day trailers were never equipped with backup lamps as you don't see them on highway tractor trailers.

      @@joetheboatguy5394 The wiring diagrams I have from Bargman and Pollock show that the #4 terminal wire is for the trailer breakaway battery as it was dedicated for that purpose only and the #7 wire is for auxiliary circuit . I have yet to see a Stock, Flat Deck, Goose Neck, Fifth Wheel , Enclosed Utility or Camper Trailer with backup lamps unless they were installed aftermarket. Also do you see backup lamps on an 18 wheeler trailer as they don't exist as I have that 7 Way diagram also.

      Hi michelbroder, i don't make the law but there's a law out there that says: If your trailer exceed 750 kg in weight. The law states that ANY trailer including caravans that exceed 750 kg need to have a fully functioning trailer reverse light. This is specified in Section 6.4 of regulation 48 approval of vehicles with regard to the installation of lighting and light signalling devices.

When you talk about trailers above 750 kg. you must be in Canada or elsewhere where the metric system is in use.

      @michelbroder6055. I found this on the web for Canada. « Many times, drivers think that just because their taillights might be visible over a low-profile trailer, operating lights on the trailer are optional. Yet in all jurisdictions in Canada, if you are going to tow a trailer, it must have operating running, brake, signal, and (dependent on size), reverse lights.Jul 13, 2017 cc »

    Does a ground wire have to go to every light component? Can you just pig tail it to the frame?

      Hi FlatOutFE, thanks for watching, You can connected the ground to the trailer frame. Of course your frame of your trailer need to be conductive. Lots of people will say it’s not the right way to do it, but everybody does it, including me 😉 hope this helps 👍

    Can I ask a question, when the brakes are pressed the yellow lights turn on not the red light, A professional trailer repair shop wired up the new 7 pin about 3 months ago.I never noticed it before, do you think something happened or it was wired wrong?
