Maypole Plug – Nickel – 12N – 7-Pin (021N)

Description

Genuine Maypole · Part no. 021N

The Maypole Plug – Nickel – 12N – 7-Pin (021N) is a replacement 12N plug for the lighting cable of a trailer, cycle carrier or older caravan. It has a plastic body and nickel plated pins, and suits rewiring a board after the old plug cracks, corrodes or gets crushed.

Good to know

• Will it go into my car's socket? It fits a 12N (N type) 7 pin socket, the one that runs the road lights; it won't fit a 12S socket, which is keyed differently, or a 13-pin socket without an adaptor.
• How do I wire it? Note which colour goes to which numbered pin on the old plug before you cut it off, strip each core neatly, tighten the screws firmly and then test stop, tail, indicators and fog light with a helper.
• Why did my old plug stop working? Green, furry pins or a cracked body let in water and the lights flicker or fail; clean the car socket's contacts too, or the new plug will have the same fault.

Which one?

If your car has a 13-pin socket, the Maypole Adaptor – 7 to 13-Pin (600A) lets a 7-pin plug connect; for extra reach between car and trailer, see the Maypole Extension Lead – 1.5m – 12N – 7-Pin Plugs (5880A).
