I'm buying a travel trailer w/ US 7 flat pin plug for lights, etc. My Disco II has the factory 7 pin Euro plug. What replacement parts do I need to get and how do I wire it? I also need to add an electronic brake controller. Any brand recommendations? I also need to have access to a 4 flat for my boat.

 

Just do a google search. You don't have to modify any wiring.

Much easier this way.

 

That would solve the boat trailer plug problem but I still need to be able to plug the RV's 7 pin US plug into the Disco.

 

You could go to camping world they should have every thing , or look there & then buy online.

 

If you're going to go take advantage of a storefront and personnel's expertise, then you should try to just buy the part there. Brick and mortar shops are having enough trouble competing with Amazon.com as it is. When you need them, use them, otherwise we'll all be screwed one day when we can no longer touch and feel something before we buy it. Rant: off.

"Basically, there is no easy way to convert the European 7-Way to a US 4-Way. We do not carry any kind of adapter that you could use. You are left with 2 options. First, you would install a separate wiring harness which would be the easiest. Or, you could attempt to fabricate an adapter."

 

Thanks for the suggestions but I don't think they're going to solve my problem. My new travel trailer has a US 7 flat pin round male plug; My DII has the factory Euro 7 round pin round female plug. I need to replace the Euro 7 round with a US 7 flat round receptacle on the truck so the electric brakes will operate. The 7 to 4 adapter won't work because it doesn't have the circuit for that, right? Can I simply get a US 7 flat pin receptacle, cut the Euro 7 round off, and attach the US 7 flat receptacle in its place? Considering the DII's electrical system, is there any additional rewiring necessary? Ideal solution would be a combo Us round 7 flat pin female plug with the additional standard 5-4-3 flat female plug on the side for use with my boat trailer. Sorry for the dissertation but I don't think I was clear enough before.

Shark59, the wiring diagram for the D2 trailer pickup is on pages 151-152 of the circuits manual inside the RAVE set of manuals.
Pin 1 - yellow - LH turn and hazards
Pin 2 - blue - fog lights
Pin 3 - white - ground
Pin 4 - green - RH turn and hazards
Pin 5 - brown - RH tail
Pin 6 - red - brake
Pin 7 - LH tail & tag light

That is for their trailer pickup module. So no "always on" 12 volt for charging battery for electric brakes, etc. Another module would be needed.

 

Here's some info about doing this to a P38 which may be of some help. Basically, the best route to go is to cut the euro plug off and wire up the 7-blade plug. You can also get a 7-blade/flat 4 combo plug that makes for a neat installation. The 7-blade setup includes a reverse light feed which locks out the surge brakes for backing up on some trailers and the charge line. Both of these would need to be added to the euro wiring. If you tap directly into the wiring at the harness by the lights using the wiring guide posted by Savannah, you would need to wire in a converter that combines the seperate brake and turn wires to feed the trailer lights. If you want a full wiring diagram you can PM me.
