It mates with the trailer’s overfill detection plug to transmit thermistor (temperature/resistance) signals to the truck’s overfill monitor, preventing spills during bottom loading. The socket features a green faceplate, 8 stainless steel contact pins, and 4 hard-coated aluminum J-slot wear rings for long service life. You typically replace it when pins are corroded or broken, slots are worn, or the socket fails electrical continuity testing.
