Kit Needed To Prevent Braking Signal From Overriding Turn Signals On A Jeep Wrangler JK
Question:
Hello: I bought from the US, LED taillights to install to my European Jeep Wrangler JK. I have an issue with the turn signals. When I’m turning and have my rear turn lights operating, they work fine but when I push the brake pedal, they stop blinking and remain stable without blinking. When I release the brake pedal you can see that they start blinking again. Can your Vehicle to Vehicle Tail Light Converter item # 118158, solve this issue? Thank you. Best regards,

Since the brakes are overriding your turn signals what you actually need is the Roadmaster Brake-Lite Relay Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-88400.
This kit is specifically designed to to prevent your towed car's brake signal from overriding the turn signal that comes from your RV. When your towed vehicle is properly wired and connected to your RV, its indicator lights will illuminate as you engage the turn signals in your RV. However, if you have only a four-diode system in place, the turn signal will be overridden by your towed car's brake signal as soon as your supplemental braking system presses the towed car's brake pedal. As a result, drivers behind you know only that you're slowing down and not that you are turning.
I've included a video below that will walk you through installation of this kit as well.
