• Is There a Tool Needed to Install Rubber Top Lip Wiper Seal for RV Slide Out - Press On
• I do have an option for you but there isn't really a specific tool needed for the Rubber Top Lip Wiper Seal for RV Slide Out part # SR23VR. It features a simple press-on installation so there will be no tool needed for this. That said, I could see how removal would be a bit more challenging, if you just simply pulled up on the top of the seal you would likely tear it so it might help to use a pry tool and lift up at the bottom of the seal where it's pressed onto the flange. In which case,...

• How To Wire Firestone Air Command Compressor System With or Without Yellow Wire
• The Air Command Compressor System part # F2610 can be wired in one of two ways. The first way would be to just attach the red wire to the positive battery terminal and the black wire to the negative battery terminal. This would allow the system to be powered on whenever you wake it up with the app. The other way would be to also attach the red wire to the positive battery terminal and the black wire to the negative battery terminal but also hook up the yellow wire to a keyed ignition source....

• Where To Mount Fuses/Circuit Breakers For 7-Way and Brake Controller on a 2015 Kia Soul?
• When installing the 7-Way Universal Installation Kit # ETBC7 on your 2015 Kia Soul it appears there is a nice space above the cover for the fuse panel. I have included an installation video we did for this for an older 2012 Soul as it has a similar space which the installer used to mount the circuit breakers which come in the kit. This is very close to the battery as well to protect the wiring. If you are looking for a recommendation for a brake controller the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake...

• Will The Progressive Dynamics Transfer Switch Prevent A Power Loop With An Inverter
• Each inverter is going to have a very specific way to wire it into your trailer's electrical system in order to prevent the power loop you're referring to. In some cases where an inverter doesn't come with a transfer switch and requires one like the # PD5110010Q you would just need to wire the inverter to the generator post to have the inverter power separated from the shore power and automatically cut the power from the inverter whenever shore power is connected.

• Are There Longer Pivot Arms for the B&W Companion Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch
• It sounds like you're referring to the pivot arms on the B&W Companion Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter like part # BWRVK3500. If that's the case then no, their are not longer/taller pivot arms. The hitch has a head height settings of 16-1/4-18-1/4". This should give pretty much any truck enough clearance to get the recommended 4-6" of clearance between the bed side and trailer. If the hitch height settings don't allow the trailer to set level, you'll need to raise or lower...

• Connecting Magnetic Tow Lights with a 4-way Connector to a Motorhome with a 7-way Connection
• While we do have some 7-way to 4-way adapters, they are all for 4-way flat and not 4-way round. We do not have an adapter that goes from a 7-way to 4-way round. While I am sure there could be come modifications made that will allow you to use the Heavy Duty Magnetic Tow Light Set # 337TL257M, it will be a lot easier to use the Roadmaster Standard Magnetic Tow Lights # RM-2120. The Roadmaster Standard Magnetic Tow Lights # RM-2120 uses a 4-way flat connection, which is a lot more common...

• Does Negative or Positive Battery Post Get Disconnected for Roadmaster Battery Disconnect
• Yes, this is a common question we've received about the Roadmaster Battery Disconnect with Switch for Towed Vehicle w/ Flat Tow Brake System # RM93MR. Vehicle owner's manuals say to disconnect the negative post while Roadmaster always says to disconnect the positive post. Since this is a Roadmaster product you'll want to install it according to their instructions. Please note this product is for diesel vehicles and if you're using a braking system that draws power off the battery you need...

• How Does the Furrion Vision S Camera Connect to the Shark Fin Mounting Bracket?
• The good news is since your camper already has already been pre-wired to accept a camera, the hard part is already done. All you'd need to do now is physically connect the Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Backup Camera System w/ Night Vision # FOS43TASF to the power wire (which can be found inside the Shark Fin camera mount FRCBRKT-BL). From here, your camera should begin to pair as soon as both the monitor and camera get power. After the camera and the monitor are paired, you'll be good to go.

• Can You Use Rear Fuse Box To Power Trailer Wiring Harness for 2018 Ford Escape
• In regards to installing a trailer wiring harness like the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # C56320 on a 2018 Ford Escape, you must run the power wire directly to the battery per the instructions. This is the only way to ensure the circuit will be rated correctly for the converter module. I cannot recommend any other power source.

• How Does OEM Tow Package Wiring Install to a 2009 Honda Pilot and What Adapters are Need for 4-Way
• Since your 2009 Honda Pilot has the tow package it will have a port or plug for this harness to plug into. There are 4 holes in the 7-Way connector so that you can mount it to the bumper. Some vehicles have knockouts in place that can be removed and provide a pre-drilled location for the 7-Way. Take a look at your bumper to see if a knock out is there. If there is no knock out, you can attach to the bumper using a bracket like part # 18138. There may also be a 4-Way already in place tucked...

• How To Prepare a 7-Way Connector for a Brake Controller on a 2001 Dodge Ram
• If the 7-Way connector was factory installed, it should all be connected and ready to go. Check the cover or flap on the 7-Way and look for the Chrysler logo. A factory 7-Way should have a connector that will mate up to a harness somewhere in the rear of the vehicle. If it is not a factory installed unit you will have to do some hard wiring. I will include a video of a brake controller install that will show you how to tell if it is a factory 7-Way or not. The 7 wires on a 7-Way are color...

• Tuning the 5th Airborne Fifth Wheel Coupler Air Pressure Setting and Air Spring Adjustment
• I would need the pin box part number off of your trailer to send you the correct instructions for your 5th Airborne coupler.

When setting air pressure you need to be on level ground and add air until the skid plate is level. If you cannot maintain a satisfactory ride, you need to reposition the the air spring or adjust...
