Maybe--but mine wasn't.

I had the wiring digram from the Cobra (Spindlebarger) website, expecting to
make a Euro-to-7 blade RV pigtail.

The trailer came with a 7 Blade RV connector, and everything checked out
except that that the turn signals were reversed! (i.e. left turn on car ---
right turn on trailer) Customs security encouraged us to vacate the premises
ASAP--So I pulled into the nearest parking lot outside the gate and fixed
it--about a 2 minute job.

Oh, yes. Also remember to keep track of whether you are looking into/
out of a male versus female plug - particularly if you wire based on
positions around a clock on the diagram. If you stick to the numbers
on the plug itself you should be fine though the print can be small
and hard to read as it is usually molded into the plug itself. It can
be useful to have a flashlight, magnifying glass and of course your R
and L shoes on.

Good luck.
