Can Single Wire Clearance Light Be installed To Replace 2-Wire Light On Travel Trailer
Question:
I have a Layton travel trailer and would like to replace the incandescent lights on it. I have 2 wires which is power and ground. My question is can you use a led light with only one wire or does it need to be two?

Expert Reply:
If a trailer clearance light like part # MCL44AB1 is used, the one wire is the power wire for the light and the light will be grounded through the mounting hardware.
If you want to use the ground wire that you have on your trailer you can install part # MCL44AB. This has a 2-wire install, where one is for the power and the second wire is for the ground.
