I know this isnt the best picture but does anyone know were to get the black 4 wire quick connect ?

I checked the some catalogs no luck .




The problem is the lights would go on a second after you turn them on ,
then two seconds after time , now they dont work .
so I took it apart cleaned , and reconnected every thing .
it worked fine for awhile . if you wiggle it it goes on and off ,
so I figure replace it if I can .

If you get the plastic version buy a couple. They don't last long.

Sean,
Once you get your new deck light connector, pick yourself up a tube of [url="http://www.etrailer.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=E&Product_Code=11755&Category_Code="]electrical grease[/url] and use it on the connections. It helps keep the corrosion away. Also good to put on your trailer electrical connections and around your trailer bulbs. Most hardware stores will carry it.

You can also fill it up with epoxy or fiberglass like I did. Better than new.
