Separate vs. Combined Lighting Systems

Combined vs Seperate Lighting System

This kit will display on your towed car as a combined lighting system - also known as a 2-wire system. A combined lighting system uses the same light bulb to signal both braking and turning (in other words, the car signals a turn by flashing the brake light, while a separate/3-wire system light up independently of each other. Add a wiring converter (118158 - sold separately) and 2 additional diodes to get a separate lighting system.


Do I Need a Brake Light Relay?

Because your vehicle has a combined lighting system - wherein the brake signals and the turn signals are carried on a single wire - a brake light relay (RM-88400 - sold separately) may be required if you use a supplemental braking system with your towing setup. A supplemental braking system depresses the brake pedal in your towed car every time you apply the brakes in your RV. So, if your towed car's brake lights illuminate when the brake pedal is pressed and the engine is off - as is the case when towing - then you need to install a relay to ensure that the lights on your towed car always act in accordance with the signals sent by your RV via the wiring harness. Without a relay, the brake signal from your towed car will override the turn signal sent by your RV when you slow down to make turns, creating a potential hazard.

etrailer was extremely helpful in getting me parts to flat tow our 2023 Jeep Wagoneer. More specifically, Noah took the time to research the required parts, offer technical guidance, and follow up to ensure I was taken care of. Top notch service which was much appreciated.

2023 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

Needed new wiring and diodes for my 2023 Jeep Rubicon. ETrailer makes it so easy to set up all the wiring for flat towing.



by:
Jeep Wrangler

This kit was fairly easy to install on a 2021 Jeep Wrangler. If you use this kit to set up a Roadmaster Nighthawk tow bar you do not need the 7-wire to 6-wire coil connector as the tow bar comes with it. Get a 4 diode wire kit without the coil connector and save money.

Works great, to charge battery of toad you need to change the 12v power from center to match the towed vehicle or wire up towed car to center post 12v

  • Recommended Flat Towing Equipment For A 2021 Jeep Wrangler Sahara 4XE
    If you went with the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms Item # e98948 you would need to also get an adapter so I recommend the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms Item # RM-521453-5 instead. The Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System - Proportional Item # BLU37TR will work with your Jeep and I recommend installing the 12 Volt Outlet Kit, 20 amps Item # RM-9332 to have a dedicated 12v outlet to power it. The Demco 4-Diode Universal Towed Vehicle...

  • Recommended Tow Dolly For A 2010 Ford Ranger
    The online manual for a 2010 Ford Ranger doesn't list anything about dolly towing the vehicle but does state that manual transmissions can be placed in 2WD and flat towed, so you're more than likely fine to dolly tow your Ranger, but I recommend double-checking with your local Ford dealership to ensure there isn't anything else that would prevent you from doing so. If you haven't purchased your tow dolly yet then I recommend the Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly w/ Disc Brakes # DM9713093....

To get your Jeep ready for the flat tow, I suggest getting the Blue Ox Altha 2 Tow Bar # BX7380, a portable braking system # BLU37TR and wiring # DM9523010-54 to complete your setup.

  • Which Tow Bar is Compatible with Roadmaster EZ-5 Base Plates for 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    The Roadmaster part you've referenced with part number 521450-5 is no longer available, but it was an EZ-5 base plate so I recommend using the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar w/ LED Lights - RV Mount - 8K # RM-676, which comes with safety cables integrated into the setup. This would be compatible with the discontinued 521450-5 base plate you've mentioned or the current model, which is the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-521453-5. If...

  • Procedure and Equipment Needed to Flat Tow 2015 Ford Edge SEL Behind Motorhome
    According to what I've read in the owner's manual, your Edge can indeed be flat towed if the specific procedures listed in the manual are followed precisely. To flat tow your Edge, hook up to the motorhome then press and hold the brake to the floor. Start the vehicle and shift into Neutral with the brake pedal still pressed then turn off the vehicle. On a keyless start equipped vehicle, push the keyless start button one to shut off. If the vehicle has an ignition key, turn the vehicle...

I recommend using the Demco Excali-Bar III Non-Binding Tow Bar # DM9511013 to connect your Tahoe to the tow vehicle.

  • Comparing Base Plate Kits for a 2019 Ford Expedition
    The best base plate kit for a 2019 Ford Expedition is the Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit part # DM9519318 because it does not have any sort of cross tube that attaches the two side together unlike the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part # RM-524457-5 or Blue Ox Base Plate Kit part # BX2678. The lack of a cross tube is going to limit the amount of modifications that are needed which then reduces install time as well so this is really the best route to take. Furthermore, the Demco...

    The Hopkins Tow Bar Lighting Kit part # HM56011 is a confirmed fit for the Sport and Titanium models of your 2018 Ford Edge but not the other models. If you have one of the other models you'd need a diode kit like the part # DM9523010-54. For your tow vehicle that does not have air brakes the DUO part # SM99251 that you mentioned would be a great option.
