Question:

Hello, I have a fifth wheel rolling hitch that uses a motor to move back and forth. What do I need to wire this into my vehicle? Thanks

Assuming that the 6-way you have pictured is the power connection for your hitch you could simply use a 7-way to 6-way adapter cable like # C59HR and connect it to an in-bed 7-way socket.

If your 2015 GMC Sierra 2500 doesn't have an in-bed 7-way socket then you could install part # PK11893-11932 in the bed for a quick connection point for your hitch. This wiring harness connects in-line with your factory 7-way for a fast and simple installation.

If the 6-way socket is not how the roller is powered then you would need to reach out to Husky and get a wiring diagram for the roller mechanism since we do not carry this specific hitch, or even the Husky brand any longer.

I do also want to note that it looks the like you have the hitch in the base rails backwards from what I can see in the pictures. The opening of the hitch should be facing the tailgate so that you can easily back up to the trailer and couple up to the pin box.
