Toad power cable from coach

(1/2) > >>

Richard Cooper:
Long story but I have to replace the power cord going from my coach to the toad (for lights on towing).  

I measured the cord from end to end and it's 80 inches.  It has fittings on each end which fit the coach and the toad as you know.  It's 6 holes in each end with one of them in the middle.

How do I go about getting this replaced?  Should I try to find someone who will cut the cable and manually install my own end fittings?  Where do I go to get this done?

I have 2 female ends.  I don't need the male ends at all.  What should this cost?

See pics.

Gerald Farris:
Richard,
Any service location can replace the cord for you.

Joel Weiss:
You don't even need to go to a service center; if the cable was wired properly (so equivalent pins are connected on both ends), all you need to do is buy a new one like this: http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Ox-BX8862-6-Wire-Electrical/dp/B000BGOFL8/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1358350222&sr=8-8&keywords=blue+ox

Richard Cooper:
What is meant by reversible cord connectors?

Bill Sprague:
The plugs and sockets are normally wired to automotive industry standards.  Therefore, you can plug either end into the car and motorhome.  In other words, there is NOT a car end or a motorhome end.
