This document is page 18 of a Ford factory wiring diagram booklet covering the Bronco and F100 through F350 trucks, titled "Trailer Circuitry." It presents the complete trailer towing wiring schematic, including power feeds from Fuse 8 (20 Amps, hot at all times) and Fuse 9 (15 Amps, hot when ignition switch is in Accy. or Run), plus Fuse Link E and Fuse Link A. The diagram traces circuits through the turn signal flasher, stop light switch, turn signal/emergency flasher switch, emergency warning flasher, headlight switch, junction box, trailer exterior light relay, and the customer-installed trailer brake control, down to the customer-installed trailer connector. Trailer connector functions and wire colors are shown: RH turn signal/stop light (gr), LH turn signal/stop light (y/bk), tail running lights (br), trailer battery feed (bk/y), trailer brake stop light (r/bk), electric brakes (bl/bk), and two grounds (bk). A component location legend lists where each component, connector (C-305, C-306, C-713, C-901, C-1001, C-1013, C-1101 through C-1110), splice (S-101, S-102), and ground (G-1003, G-1106) is located on the vehicle, along with connector shapes, colors, and terminal counts. Notes indicate portions apply only with speed control and one ground path is F100-350 only.
