Trailer Light Adapter

Couple of questions...

1. I have a 92 F150 with a trailer hook up that has 7 round pins.

The trailer I have just bought has 6 flat female conections around the outside of the middle round male connector. Is there an adapter? if so, what do I ask for at the parts store or do I start splicing and dicing?

2. I have an oil leak that seems to be coming from the oil pan gasket. It occasionaly drips onto the exhaust and stinks up the cab. I have been quoted $500.00 just for labor. YIKES. Is this a simple install for the "Do It Yourselfer"? Any special tools needed?

3. My driver side electric window does not work. When I press the button, I see the voltage meter dip a little. Does this mean the electrics are OK but the motor is screwed?

Cheers,

I had the same situation as you (well, about the same). My truck had the round plug-in, whereas most applications today, it seems, have the flat plug - I needed to plug in a four-wire flat. Simple answer - I found an adapter at Wal-Mart.

I helped my dad replace his oil pan gasket, and it took us 2 hours start to finish. Get a one piece gasket from Ford. We didn't jack up the engine or anything. Just pulled the oil pan bolts and dropped it down enough to get the old gasket out and the new one in, then bolted everything back together.

Sounds like your window motor is fried. Pick one up at the junkyard, both sides are the same. You will need to drill a large hole in the inside door (behind the trim, which you need to remove) the little indentations are center points to drill to remove the bolts.
