Trailer Wiring Harness Installation – 2001 Dodge Grand Caravan – etrailer.com

installation instructions and specs for complete information.
Today we are going to be installing wiring harness part number 118376 on a 2001 Dodge Grand Caravan. Okay, taking a look at the wiring harness here, you can see we have got a T-connector here. That is going to be plugging in behind the tail light assembly on the drivers side. We have also got a ring terminal here, next to this white wire that is our ground wire. We are going to be using a self-tapping screw that is provided in the installation kit. In the middle, we have got the black converter box, and on the other side of it is double-sided tape. That will allow us to adhere it to a surface inside to keep it up and out of the way. Here at the other end we have got the actual 4-pole that can be the connection point for your trailer.
So, the first thing we want to do is to go ahead and remove the rear drivers side tail light assembly. To do that, we need to remove the two push pins here. And then we will just pull the tail light assembly back. And, as you can see right here, we have got our connection point. Look in on the back side you can see the red tab in there that needs to be released first, before you can pull the connector apart. If you just push the tab over until it releases, and then there is a little button up here at the top, we are going to push in. And that will allow us to pull them apart. Now we will take our tail light assembly and set it off to the side for a moment. Take our wiring harness, and you can see you have got two ends. The one end is going to connect directly to the connector that is on the vehicle side. And we are pushing that together and pushing the lock tab over. The other end will be going into the back side of the tail light assembly. I put a slit into the grommet here, and I am actually going to store the converter box inside of here. That will keep it nice and weather safe for us.
For the 4-pole, we have actually got two options of where you can store that at. You can take it and also route it through the grommet through the inside, or you can pull it through the interior panel here and store it inside the jack storage compartment. Or you can actually route it outside here. We can just take this screw out from the bumper cover and we can feed it between the bumper and the body to where we can run it down below and attach it to the trailer hitch itself. And that is what we are going to do with this application. I am going to go ahead and connect the ground wire, and then we will feed the converter box through and route our 4-pole below. I am going to go ahead and cut a slit into the grommet here, and that is going to allow me to feed the wires back out once I have slid the converter box in. That should be enough there.

Why do i have an extra wire on my wiring harness for my aftermarket stereo?
Im trying to put in a new stereo in my car but the new wiring harness for my car has a blue/black Amp wire, but my stereo harness doesnt have any other extra wire to connect the blue one to. Plus i dont have a amp. So what do i do with this extra wire?
That wire would go to your amp to turn the amp on. but you do have one. So just tape the end of the wire so it can short out and your good to go.
Trailer Wiring Harness Installation – 1998 Toyota Camry – etrailer.com

Start by entering the trunk and you want to remove the access panels that allow you access to the rear of the taillights there is one on each side, there are three fasteners holding it on. Once you remove the interior panels pull your carpet back and you need to remove the metal threshold piece as well. There are two fasteners attaching it, and it is just pop riveted on.
Next locate the factory T connector behind each tail light assembly, you have to remove those, and plug the T-One harness in-line. The yellow will go to the driver side and the one with the green wire will go to the passenger side. After you connected the T-connectors into the vehicle, you are going to need to mount the ground screw. You need to find a suitable mounting point somewhere on the body metal of the vehicle. I am going to mount it right here.
Use the provided self tapping screw with the kit. After I drilled the hole, I am going to mount the ground wire. Once you finish mounting the ground screw and connecting the connectors, just put the trunk compartment back together. Here is your finished product it is just going to hang out of the trunk in use. etrailer.com

How do you tell the difference between the types of wiring in walls?
This is what I mean: I bought a house a few years ago and it has wiring at different points throughout the house that is covered by dummy plates. How do I tell whether its wiring for a switch or a receptacle for a plug or light socket?
My wife doesn’t like the having blank plates all over the house and I figure if I can throw in an extra receptacle or light, why waste it?
First take the plates off and see if there is actually one or more cables in the boxes. Don’t touch them yet. JUST take the plates off. When things are changed, sometimes the box will be left with no wires in them, and for whatever reason be it financial or for astetics, the box just had a dummy plate installed. If that is the case, do whatever you want with it. Cover it over, plaster it over, hang a picture over it, or put the plate back on. If there ARE wires inside, they may be live. They may still be *feeding through* to some device located elsewhere. They may also be part of a *dead circuit*, one that has been removed or relocated elsewhere and the wires caped and covered. Not knowing your electrical knowledge base, I would suggest you contact a qualified electrician if you are not sure what you have. If you are reasonably experienced with this sort of thing you shouldn’t have to ask, and with no meter to check the wires with, you should leave it to others. Yes, it’s *possible* you could have some usable outlet boxes, but you need to determine what is there now first.

How do I replace the wiring on a Pfaff 130 sewing machine motor?
I’ve removed the motor from the machine, and removed the two long screws that go through the motor, but cannot figure out how to get it open so I can replace the wiring. Help!
The bearings on the each end of the shaft are pressed on. Gently pry apart.
I question if you should be changing out a motor’s windings if you don’t know how to get it apart.
