Trailer wiring for 1999 explorer
Question:
I just bought the wiring kit that plugs into the wiring circuit behind the passenger side of the rear bumber. Despite it saying that it is for a 99 explorer there was one tab that didn’t line up at all. I removed that tab and the remaining two lined up fine, but the trailer lights don’t seem to work. I know the trailer lights work fine and don’t have a tester to see if there is power getting to the trailer. I am concerned that there is something unique about the 1999 model given that it didn’t fit correctly. Any thoughts? Thanks, Jim

I have a 2001 XLT 4WD, and I would sure like to buy one of these wiring kits as described above. Manufacturers? – Part Numbers? – Anyone?
