I have a 1986 K5 Blazer CUCV. I am modifying the original pintle hitch with a combination pintle-ball hitch and want to be able to pull my boat trailer with the lights working properly. There is a military receptacle where a military trailer would plug in, located next to the pintle hitch. That receptacle is fed by two three-wire groups that have quick connect's (located up under the truck's rear bumper). My question has to do with the color coding of those 6 wires (two groups of 3 wires each). Does anyone know what color wire goes to the taillamps, brake lamps, and directional lamps? Also, the hi-lo beam selector is on the steering column, but there is also what looks like an old-fashioned dimmer footswitch located on the K5's floorboard to the left of the brake pedal. It's a momentary switch...........is that a control switch for trailer brakes? I'm relatively new to this military vehicle stuff and thought I'd ask for advice and help before I wired something up wrong and caused myself a major problem. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer me. By the way, one more question...... stenciled on the cab ceiling above each door of my K5 are the letters "NFOGHA". Curious what those letters stand for......if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it. Thanks again!
