Will Magnetic Tow Lights Work if Plugged into the 4-Way Connector of the Towed Vehicle
Question:
Pull 2017 Jeep Wrangler behind motorhome. Use 4 pin flat to operate Jeep tail lights while towing. Putting cover over bikes mounted on back of Jeep that covers the Jeeps tail lights. Tried plugging in magnetic mount trailer lights into Jeeps 4 pin flat connector, but lights dont work when towing. The extra lights work fine when using Jeep alone. Appreciate your help!

Helpful Expert Reply:
You will need to plug the magnetic lights into the RV 4-Way since the 2017 Jeep Wrangler 4-Way will not have power and the lighting system you have will not provide power to the Wrangler's 4-Way. Plug them into the RV and it will solve the problem.
