It provides the electrical connections for trailer lighting, turn signals, electric brakes, and 12V auxiliary power. The premium construction typically includes a reinforced zinc die-cast housing, thread‑sealed terminals to prevent wire pull‑out, and a spring‑loaded stainless steel lid that protects the contacts from moisture and road debris. It is replaced when pins become corroded or damaged, causing intermittent light or brake failures.
