Video Transcript for Comprehensive Review: 16-14 Gauge Butt Connector

Today we're going to take a look at the five pack of 16 to 14 gauge butt connectors. These vinyl insulated blue butt connectors have a wire range of 16 to 14 gauge. The wire gauge, you can see it fits, is actually stamped on here. They do use chamfered barrel ends in the inside to allow fast and easy wire insertion from both ends. The very middle has a built in wire stop for accurate positioning of the wires and these must be crimped at the ends for a good insulated connection, and this part comes as a quantity of five. But, that should do it for the review on the five pack of the 16 to 14 gauge butt connectors..

I ordered a Ventline Vanair RV vent fan. It arrived on time and in good shape. I believe I paid a fair price for this item. I have not yet installed the fan, but have no reason to suspect it will not be the exact replacement for the defective one in my Airstream. I also purchased the butt connectors to hook up the fan during installation.

Not water tight silicone butt connectors wouldn't use these

While we dont have butt connectors designed to be water tight, we do have heat-shrink butt connectors like part # DW05744-5 as well as primary wire heat shrink tubing # DW05451. The heat shrink design is intended to help keep as much water as possible out of the wiring connection.

Wanted to upgrade my trailer to LED tail lights during an overhaul an new flooring. After stopping at 4 auto supply stores that carried the brand I wanted but only stocked the most expensive ones the company offered, I went to etrailer an stopped wasting my time.
Exactly what I wanted. Priced honestly, and delivered quickly.
Won't waste the time & gas next time. Just come back to etrailer an be completely satisfied.

I am very happy with the quality of the products and the service! Most of all I want to compliment you on the instructional videos included in your websit. They are simple to follow, informative and answered several questions I had about the products and the installation. I will definitely be back when needed and highly recommend etrailer.com!!

Used to wire a Tekonsha Primus brake controller to a 2009 Porsche Cayenne S. Worked perfectly.

Worked great



by:

What can I say? they work and are inexpensive. I had to find something to add to my order to get from 149.90 to go over the 150.00 to get free shipping, and if you own a trailer, it's always a good idea to have these in your toolbox!



by:

Everything was easy to install thanks to the Etrailer video on Youtube. I got it all done in about 20 minutes and it all works great. I highly recommend this company.

Basic connectors, nice to not have to buy a pack of 100 since I only needed a few.

  • Junction Box and Trailer Lighting Recommendation for 26 Trailer
    Often times, people will run the wires from a 7-way such as yours to a junction box like part # 38656. From there, they will run the standard wire colors to the trailer lights, brakes and battery. I have attached a photo that shows how this setup works in the junction box. Most molded 7-way pigtails will come wired with the RV style color code. If you ever need to replace your 7-way connector in the future, you could simply open the junction box, remove the connector and wire loom and install...

  • Recommended 12 Volt Vent With Wall Mounted Control Switch
    We do have exactly what you need for a roof vent for your camper, so long as it has the standard 14" x 14" square cut out. What you'll need is a 12 volt vent from Ventline, which comes included with a dog-proof wall mounted control switch (ok it isn't technically dog-proof but will certainly never be confused for a chew toy). You have an option for either White or Smoke in color: - White: Ventline Ventadome Roof Vent with 12V Fan and Wall Switch # V2119-1-533 - Smoke: Ventline Ventadome...

  • Is There a Trailer Side 4-Round to 4-Flat Adapter
    So I know the wiring harness you're describing, the 4-round, and there isn't an adapter to get it to go to a 4-flat. That's okay though because there is a really simple solution. What you can do is just cut off your round 4-way and add a standard, trailer side 4-flat, part # W787264. All you'd need to do is connect the wires with butt connectors # 05731-5. I've added links below to a couple help articles for you to check out as well on wiring which may be useful.

  • How to Determine Correct Roof Garnish For Ventline E-Z Lift Ventadome Vent V3094-601-00
    Really good questions, and let's start with securing the Ventline E-Z Lift Ventadome Trailer Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan - Manual Lift - White # V3094-601-00. You are correct about the holes, as those are screw holes for the vent; then you'd use butyl tape and sealant to complete the install. You can get the full install kit with the Roof Vent Installation Kit # 344270KITW. As for the ceiling garnish, it is required for the installation of the Ventline E-Z Lift # V3094-601-00.

    If you are looking for a trailer hitch receiver and wiring for your 1982 Jeep CJ-7 Renegade then you have come to the right place.

  • Brake Lights and Fender Lights for Enclosed Trailer
    We can get you the right lights for your trailer, but just keep in mind that we don't have a way of knowing the exact replacement lights on any trailer, so if you want to utilize the same mounting holes, for example, you will need to measure the center-to-center mounting dimensions, or you can simply make new mounting holes if you like. From what I can see of photos I looked up of your trailer, they all seem to be surface-mounted lights, so here is a list of what you can use. - GloLight...

  • 7-Way and 4-Way Trailer Connection Recommendation for 2013 Ford Explorer
    If your 2013 Ford Explorer has the trailer wiring (it should) it would be located under the passenger side rear fender. If you check out the install video I attached you can see our installer point it out at the 16 second mark. To install a 7-way you would want the part # C56278. This will require you to wire everything to the pins of the connector. Or you could wire everything to the part # HM40975-11998 instead and have the 7-way and 4-way you wanted. You will have to use butt connectors...

  • Parts Needed to Add a 4-way Wiring Harness to a 2018 Jayco North Point 5th Wheel Trailer
    I do have an option for you, but it will involve splicing into some wires. There is not a plug-n-play option available for your 2018 Jayco North Point 5th wheel. - 4-Pole Hardwire Kit with Circuit Tester # 18252 which has Quick-splice connectors to ease installation. We also have bonded 4 Wire # 16-4B-1 sold by the foot if you need more wire length. If you need to add additional wire you'll need some 16-14 Gauge Butt Connector # 05731-5 to connect the wires.

    The Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR has four wires coming out of the back of it; one white wire for your ground, one black wire for your 12v power, and two blue wires that will communicate with your thermostat. You can test your old wiring from your previous water heater with a digital multimeter # PT89ZR to determine which is your power and which is your ground on your trailer's wiring.

  • Recommended Amber Clearance Light That Measures 4L x 1W and Has 2-Wires for Connection

This light measures 4-1/16 inches L x 1-1/16 inches W and comes with the black and white wiring that you are looking for. It is very similar to the Optronics # MCL65AB that you referenced in your question. You can cut off the ring terminal end of the white wire and use some Butt Connectors, like part # 05731-5, to attach your power and ground wires to...

Often times, people will run the wires from a 7-way such as yours to a junction box like part # 38656. From there, they will run the standard wire colors to the trailer lights, brakes and battery.

But we can still help you get going with your installation with a DIY harness.

    It sounds like your trailer has a special type of 4-pole connector called a wishbone harness, such as 20-foot # A20WB or 35-foot # A35W42B. These wishbone harnesses simply use two brown running light wires to make it easier to wire your trailer's lights. The dual wires mean there is no need to run a jumper wire from one side of the trailer to the other; one wire runs down each side of the trailer frame. You can use butt connectors like # 05731-5 which you can wrap in electrical tape for...
