A passageway is formed through a trailer hitch bar allowing an electrical conductor to be threaded through the hitch bar. At a proximal end of the hitch bar the wires are attached to the first half of an electrical conductor. Within a receptacle, a second half of the connector is located to interconnect with the connections on the first half. Conductors are connected to the connector halves and are coupled to electrical contacts on a draw bar on a towing vehicle which connect to an electrical coupling on the vehicle. The wires within the electrical conductor are now connected to the electrical connections already existing in the vehicle allowing the towed vehicle to respond to activations of brakes, turn signals, hazard warnings, headlights, and also engaging the transmission in reverse to activate a solenoid to release trailer brakes to allow a trailer to be moved in reverse.
