    So I was trying to figure out which prongs are the power ones on the yellow outlet on the truck and found that when I flipped on the auxiliary switches on the dash and that the 6 o’clock and 8 o’clock powered on.So my question is based on how the trailer plug diagram is will it work?

    I have always wired them and found generally the dump valves were wired to the # 2 pin like on your plug diagram

    Do you have to power a switch or is that already powered and you just need an on/off switch?

    When I turn the auxiliary switches on in the cab it powers up the bottom one and bottom left one.

    Switch one of the two wires that power auxiliary switches to the number 2 pin on the cord then you should be good to go
