What are you wanting? The specific function of each pin?

Yes that would be great, can make my own trailer light sets using ps2 keyboard cords for a fraction of the cost of the tamiya ones

I can help here a little. The 2 pins closest to the inside of the board are for the taillights. I would say that the other 4 are for turn signals.

Nice schematics, but I think he is looking for the output pins on the MFU board.

Can you work it out from the pin configuration on the second schematic?
Do keyboard ps2 connectors fit the mfu trailer socket?

I know that servo plugs fit the mfu pins for the trailer lights.

OK seriously $399 for a truck kit and $355 for the MFU whats another $40 for the trailer light kit and its all pug and play.
