Trailer plug adapter — 13-pin to 7-pin Key benefits Solves socket incompatibility: converts your vehicle’s 13‑pin socket to a 7‑pin socket so you can connect trailers, caravans and other towed equipment without rewiring. Plug-and-play convenience: quick, tool-free connection for fast installations at the tow hitch. Versatile and practical: one compact adapter covers multiple trailer types, avoiding the need for multiple cables or permanent changes to vehicle wiring. Reliable signal conversion: preserves correct pin mapping so lighting and signal functions are transferred between the two connector standards. What it does Converts a car’s 13‑pin socket into a 7‑pin socket for trailer electrical connections. Acts as an adapter/plug between different trailer plug standards to enable immediate towing compatibility. Compatibility Works with a wide range of trailers, caravans, boat trailers and utility trailers that use 7‑pin connectors. Suitable for use with cars, trucks (LKW) and towing vehicles equipped with a 13‑pin outlet. Useful for outdoor enthusiasts and caravan owners who frequently switch between trailer types. Key attributes Function: 13‑pin to 7‑pin adapter for trailer electrical connections. Compatibility: designed for standard 13‑pin vehicle sockets and 7‑pin trailer plugs. Size and fit: compact, plug-in adapter that attaches directly to the vehicle socket for a low-profile connection. Performance: provides straightforward electrical conversion to maintain lighting and signaling functions when towing. Typical use scenarios Caravan weekend trip: connect a 7‑pin caravan plug to a modern car with only a 13‑pin socket to enable towing without modification. Borrowed trailer or boat trailer: attach a borrowed 7‑pin trailer to your vehicle’s 13‑pin outlet so lights and signals function correctly. Worksite towing: quickly switch between trailers with different plugs on a truck (LKW) fleet without changing vehicle wiring. Why you need it Prevents unnecessary rewiring or buying specialized cables. Saves time and reduces downtime when switching trailers. Keeps your vehicle’s original sockets intact while extending compatibility to older or simpler trailer plugs. Notes Product purpose and function are limited to electrical connector conversion between 13‑pin and 7‑pin systems. Ensure connectors are clean and undamaged before use and follow vehicle and trailer manufacturer guidance for towing safety.
