    Weird, I’ve wired tons of 7 way plugs, never had any with reverse lights. Abs ignition power in the center, ground, marker lights, right turn signal, stop lamp, left turn signal, and tail lights around the outside.

    I have parked in a travel center parking lot 1 time in 3 years overnight. So beep away. Lucky enough to park at customers or some small out of the way places not known by many. Nice peaceful and quiet, best part not waking up to my hood being rearranged by some mega #### box fleet truck
     
    Roberts450 and D.Tibbitt Thank this.

    Probably had the center pin on a switch, that was common on older trucks.

    God, I'm so glad I had one of about 12 trucks in Swift's entire fleet that hadn't had that installed yet when I was driving for them... popping the trailer brake, releasing the tractor brake, and stepping out to find the loudest site of the hissing was how I ended up diagnosing my air leak, and being able to tell the shop guys EXACTLY where the leak was probably halved my downtime on that trip...

    Unfortunately, I think all 7 pins are currently assigned...

    Don’t be so negative Jon, it’s just a little beeping.
    Come on, man. No need to be such a tough guy.
