This is a neat pictorial showing the 7-way connector and the correct positions to use.

I imagine the Flasher will get someones attention.
Some will push a ATC automotive fuse in the slot
Each one of those automotive running lights around your trailer will draw around 1AMP of DC CURRENT meaning your battery will run down soon if camping off the power grid.
I saw one install where the wiring inside the 7-way connector junction box had a Radio Shack Slide Switch with indicator running off the terminals or wire nuts like mine has and mounted inside the trailer by the door.

This would be very handy to turn on your running lights when you wanting a rescue squad or police to find your trailer in the camp ground for emergencies...
