Canadian 10cwt Trailer rebuild

[Jordan Baker]

Sorry Luigi.

I don't have any info on the tool box or document holder. Other then the pictures in the later manual. Hopefully someone else out there has the info and can share it.


I'm currently trying to figure out the wiring diagram for the trailer.

It appears to use three of the wires coming off the trailer plug. The red one is the ground. One is used for the brake light and another is used to power both the tail lights and convoy light. The brake light wire (black) seems to go directly to the brake light and also splits off to the trailer socket. The other lights are powered by a single wire (green) going to the toggle switch. It is an on/off/on switch. Power in goes to the common middle terminal. Power out to the convoy light (green) comes from the left switch terminal (as seen in diagram) and appears to only go to the convoy light. Power out to the tail lights (green) comes from the right switch terminal (as seen in diagram) and goes to both tail lights. There is also another wire (green) that goes direct to the trailer socket. Lastly it appears there is a ground wire (red) from the trailer socket to frame.

Am I correct in reading that power for the convoy light goes no further then the trailer and doesn't go to the trailer socket? To me this doesn't make sense. What makes more sense is that the single wire (green) from the right side of switch to trailer socket should actually be coming from the common switch terminal and going to the trailer socket. This would would provide the power to the socket for the next trailer's convoy and tail lights.

Any thoughts on this are welcome.
