To install the diodes that come with the Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-154 you need to splice them in-line with the tail lights on your 2013 Ford F-150. Basically the side with the single connector is for the wire that goes directly to your tail light while the side with two connectors is used for the OEM wiring on your F-150 and each of the 4 wires on the harness.
I have attached an installation video of this kit on a 2016 F-150 that you can reference. There are also some diagrams I attached which show how to wire this kit depending on if your motorhome has combined wiring or not.
