Hopkins 48845 Direct Connect 3-to-2 Wire Trailer Light Converter

The Hopkins 48845 Direct Connect Trailer Converter is designed to provide a safe and legal connection between your vehicle's electrical system and a standard 2-wire trailer. This converter is essential for vehicles with separate amber turn signals, including most foreign cars and many modern domestic vehicles that use dedicated turn signal circuits.

Key Features:

• Converts 3-wire vehicle systems (separate turn and brake lights) to standard 2-wire trailer systems
• Electronically isolated design prevents feedback and protects vehicle computer systems
• Direct plug-in connection for quick, no-splice installation on compatible vehicles
• Prevents cross-current interference that can cause dashboard warning lights or computer errors
• Complies with DOT requirements for trailer lighting connections

This converter is necessary because vehicles with separate turn signal circuits cannot be directly wired to standard trailers without causing electrical conflicts. The Hopkins 48845 provides the proper signal conversion while maintaining electrical isolation to protect sensitive vehicle electronics.
