Dodge Charger: Towing Requirements / Towing Requirements — Trailer Lights And Wiring
Whenever you pull a trailer, regardless of the trailer size, stoplights and turn
signals on the trailer are required for motoring safety.
The Trailer Tow Package may include a four- and seven-pin wiring harness. Use
a factory approved trailer harness and connector.
NOTE:
Do not cut or splice wiring into the vehicle’s wiring harness.
The electrical connections are all complete to the vehicle but you must mate
the harness to a trailer connector. Refer to the following illustrations.
NOTE:
- Disconnect trailer wiring connector from the vehicle before launching a
boat (or any other device plugged into vehicle’s electrical connect) into water.
- Be sure to reconnect after clear from water area.
