  OK, I've used the $20 trailer light connectors that plug directly
in to the rear light wiring harness before, and had good luck. But,
this was on the old S-10 which had no on-board computer, not on
my nice Dakota.

  I did purchase the Trailer Towing Package option when we got the
Dakota, and this included the factory-installed trailer light
harness. Not having the wiring diagram handy, do you think the
factory-installed harness isolates the trailer electrics from the
computer power circuit? Or do I have another project to deal with?
