Do to an unfortunate mishap (of course) my trailer plug got caught between the receiver hitch and ball as I pulled away and tore the plug cord out of the junction box located in the pin box (photos attached). Can anyone provide the wiring diagram to repair the connections? I reviewed the owners manual and looked through many forum pages and could not find this diagram. Thank you.

You may , if you have time , want to install one of these https://www.amazon.com/MICTUNING-Hea...4776474&sr=8-2 if not please use good butt connectors and do not use wire nuts, unless this is just to get you home.

The YL and BK in the connector, I don't know.
This diagram is how mine is wired.

In this photograph, you can see where I rewired my 7-way connector at the trailer. This should be very helpful in putting things back together. The wires at the top lead out to the 7-way connector. The wires on the bottom run to the trailer.

How good is the Amazon plug and cable? Just wondering if the junction box is sold separately?
Thanks

Hi Keith,
The cord that comes with the box is actually better quality (in my opinion) than the OE cord. A little bit longer and more flexible.
