• Cooking outdoor recipes

• Hiking tips

What color wire is used for the right side blinkers and brakes on a 4-pin flat wiring harness?

• Yellow

• Brown

• Green

• White

What is the purpose of the white wire in a trailer's wiring harness?

• For left side blinkers and brakes

• For running lights

• For right side blinkers and brakes

• As the return path for all other circuits

Why might a trailer lose its frame continuity as it ages?

• Because of the color of the wiring

• Due to the use of LED fixtures

• Because of bolted or clamped together spots

• Due to fully welded frames

How is a light fixture without a white wire typically grounded?

• By connecting it directly to the battery

• Through a separate grounding rod

• By using a green wire

• Through the fixture's mounting studs

What is a common method for protecting wire connections from corrosion?

• Wrapping them in paper

• Soaking them in water

• Using liquid electrical tape

• Leaving them exposed to air

Why is it recommended to add an extra 20% to measured wire lengths?

• To account for wire shrinkage

• To ensure there is enough wire for connections

• To make the wiring look more aesthetically pleasing

• Because wire is sold in bulk

What is a potential issue with grounding the white wire right by the coupler in older trailers?

• It may not provide a reliable ground due to corrosion or paint

• It increases the risk of wire theft

• It can cause the trailer to tilt

• It can interfere with the trailer's brakes

What is the significance of the tilt bed hinge point in trailer wiring?

• It can be a problem area for electrical continuity

• It is the best place to ground the white wire

• It is where the trailer's battery should be connected

• It is used to adjust the trailer's height

Why might someone choose to run white wires to all individual light fixtures?

• To avoid depending on the trailer frame for circuit completion

• Because it is a legal requirement

• To reduce the amount of wiring needed
