7-way connector vehicle side replacement
I mentioned earlier backing into something and breaking the connector. I checked the wires with a tester and all was fine so figured I'd use it for a coming trip and then replace it. Well, not a good plan, as it turned out, I couldn't plug the Bargman from the trailer into it. Removed the Curt plug (vehicle side) from the holder and tried it. The problem is, it gets a connection but won't go in the last 1/4 inch into the Bargman receiver plug. I'm guessing this is also why it was always loose on the plug. (Inside the socket-type plug you can't tell that it isn't going all the way in.)
Everything works with it in as far as it goes, so I taped it up to use for the trip. But I want to replace it with one that fits better. Any suggestions? I looked at e trailer but the only Bargmans were sealed connectors that I can't just switch out the wires on. I'm not big on electrical stuff but I can switch wires from one plug to another assuming they work more or less the same way. So what will fit tightly with a Bargman?
