Hey guys, on my 06 2500 I have a Recon Light bar on the back, it is rarely unplugged from my truck's trailer plug because I rarely haul a trailer. Well, the other day I had to, I noticed that the plugs were corroded pretty badly, and when I finally got them unplugged from one another on of the prongs broke. So needless to say, I now have no trailer lights or a working light bar now. What is the easiest fix?

Thanks!

 

You could do a replacement from dodge or go with this set-up and have a 4 way on the bumper too:

Either option will be plug and play w/ no splicing of wires..

use some die-electric grease when you plug things in next time..

 

Thanks alot, the more I look at it, the prong that broke was from the light bar so I am going to have to splice it first off. Any tips on that?

 

Whatever you do, use dielectric grease when you put it all back together so it will never corrode again.

 

you can buy a new plug from your local parts store and splice it in.. If you have a 4 way under the bumper you could get a 4-way plug and harness and tie it into the Recon Light bar.. saving your 7 way for trailers..

Have you tried Recon to see if they do a replacement harness?

 

Replacing the truck's socket is easy, as there is a connector on the back side to remove it.

As far as splicing the other piece, I'd recommend using solder and heat shrink tubing. Takes a little extra time, but it will never pull apart or corrode.

Dielectric grease is great stuff.
