Expert Reply:
The most common trailer connector that carries the reverse light circuit is the 7-way. This is a very common connector style. Also the flat 5-way carries this signal as well. This is most common seen on boat trailers or others with surge brakes.
For a 6 foot long harness with a 7-way we have the part # H20044. Or for a 5-way we have the part # HM47910.
