12 pin male trailer plug

Post by 4x4M38 »

I have what appears to be a 12 pin male trailer receptacle plug that would mount on the right front of the M100 and maybe others. It has harness tag 8724522 attached.

I removed it from a large trailer harness to use the wire for my M38. I removed the individual wire tags to use on my other project.

There are no markings anywhere on the plug, but it looks identical to the trailer plugs I see here on the website.

I would like to trade it for a female trailer receptacle plug that goes on the back of the M38 and others. Otherwise I would sell it for the same price I would have to pay to buy one, or $22.50 plus shipping.

Hello Jeff,
It has 12 pins but only six wires including the ground wire.
All had their connectors removed except the ground. Please
see the photo above.

I had promised the plug to another member and we were working out
shipping details. Also have another member just ahead of you as well.

I'd be happy to help you find another.

Hi Guys,
Here is the exact item I bought, removed the plug and
Douglas connectors and am using the wire and plugs to
rewrite my M38.

http://m.ebay.com/itm/WIRE-HARNESS-W-DO ... iid%253A11

It's 40 bucks including shipping, but you get that flanged 12 pin male connector, wire tags, Douglas connectors and 160 feet of wire. Heck, if you
are wiring a trailer you can use as is or just shorten if you want.

Take care,

If you modernize the FSN to a NSN 2590-00-534-2352 this is what you'll find:

M127, M128A1, M129A1 semi-trailer series flatbed, van & shop. ORD PN 8724522. The receptacle connector is ORD PN 8376208. On the early M100 with this receptacle the ORD PN is 7525173 so there may be some subtle differences but it superseded to the one you have now.

Here's a lot more info:

It's nothing more then a thing we called "Let your fingers do the walking" when we only had yellow pages! :wink:

Today with Google there is simply no reason anyone can't find detailed answers if the just punch enough of the right keys!
