This is page 150-12 ("In-Line Connector Faces") from the 1996 Ford Bronco Electrical & Vacuum Troubleshooting Manual (EVTM). It shows the pin-face views of the two halves of the trailer towing connector: C417F (the female/plug half, labeled PIA) and C417M (the male/socket half, part reference 13A576). Each connector face shows seven cavities numbered 1-7 with their Ford circuit numbers and wire color codes: pin 1 = 963 (BK/LG), pin 2 = 49 (O), pin 3 = 64 (DG), pin 4 = 43 (DB), pin 5 = 206 (W), pin 6 = 52 (Y), pin 7 = 962 (BR/W). A previous owner has added handwritten function labels on the C417F side identifying each circuit: 49 = trailer battery charge, 962 = trailer marker lights, 963 = trailer backup lights, 64 = trailer right turn, 52 = trailer left turn, 43 = electric brake feed, and 206 = ground. This page is useful for anyone wiring or troubleshooting the factory 7-pin trailer tow connector on a 1996 Bronco, identifying which wire color corresponds to which trailer function at connectors C417F/C417M.
