Recommended Wire and Connector for 5-Way Round Application

Question:

Have a 2000 Escapade trailer behind a Gold Wing. Changed to newer bike, hitch put on, wiring harness has the round 5 wire connector. Having problems with the trailer - may have to replace complete trailer wiring harness or re-wire trailer. Do you carry a wiring harness?

For a 5-way round trailer connector, I recommend the Pollak 5-Pole, Round Pin Trailer Wiring Connector - Chrome - Trailer End # PK11501. Most people will use the Bonded 4 Wire - per foot # 16-4B-1 to connect the signals and then run # 16-1-1 for the other function needed.
