It accepts the standard 7-pin round plug (SAE J560) and carries lighting, turn signals, brake lights, and auxiliary power. The heavy-duty “HD” version uses solid brass split pins and a durable zinc die-cast housing with a tongue-and-groove door to resist dirt and moisture. Over time, sockets corrode or wear, causing intermittent lights or electrical failures, so this is a typical replacement part for a reliable connection.
