If you are talking about a wiring harness for the 2012 Fiat 500 to tow a trailer, then you should be using # 118546 which just plugs in line with the vehicle wiring. See instructions link.
But if you are talking about a system to flat tow the 500 then you will need to use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to test the wiring to determine the functions. a technician at a Fiat dealer may be able to provide you with some sort of schematic or at least tell you the color codes. However, I would... view full answer...
To determine the wiring for your 2016 Winnebago View you can look at how the tail lights function. If the brake light also functions as your turn signal then you have combined lighting. The lighting for your 2012 Fiat 500 is wired separately so once you know what the wiring for your motorhome is you can use the corresponding wiring guide I've attached for the Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-154. view full answer...
The 15" x 15" opening is standard for a 14" x 14" roof vent so something like the MaxxAir MaxxFan Mini Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan # MA00-04301M should fit just fine for your application (the garnish you have should measure 16" x 16"). If you'd like to try to reduce that hole a bit then there isn't a kit for that but you could try adding 1/2" shims around the opening to get the desired size. view full answer...
Yes, the draw bar arms on Roadmaster base plates # 522013-1A can be removed when not in use. If you look at the description of the product, second bullet point, it reads "Drawbars are easily removable - just twist and pull." That square part is the draw bar, one on each side. view full answer...
Great question!
From what I could find in the owner's manual for a 2015 Fiat 500 (looking both at the Recreational/Flat Towing and Emergency Towing procedures) it does look like you need to keep the steering wheel unlocked while flat towing. Since this means your ignition is on, it can very well drain your battery. I'm not sure why this isn't something that is commonly known because even some of our flat towing manufacturers don't have this info on their site. I reached out to Roadmaster... view full answer...
I've spoken with Blue Ox about this issue before and they told me that in the rare situation where the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR locks up a towed vehicle's brakes the problem is in how the Patriot is set up and not in the unit itself.
She said in most cases the reason is the seat is adjusted too far forward or the arm of the system has been adjusted too far out.
In very rare situations they have seen an internal A04 error code in the unit causing the system to need to be replaced entirely. view full answer...
When installing the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13271 on your 2016 Fiat 500X you will not need to drill any new holes in the frame rails - metal - of the vehicle, as shown in the linked instructions. However, this hitch requires you to enlarge existing holes with a die grinder, or file.
Please note the Curt hitch is going to require the use of stabilizing straps # 18050 with all non-trailer accessories such as bike racks and cargo carriers in order to maintain the warranty. I've added a link... view full answer...
There is some assembly required on the Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screening # RM-4750, but it is not difficult. There are 8 bolts, 4 nuts, and 2 washers in the hardware kit. You'll be attaching the rods and the gas struts after sliding the screen into place. It is a quick assembly with a couple wrenches or ratchets. I've attached the instructions for you to look at. It is a few minutes of assembly to add a great protection to your vehicle. view full answer...

The Solera Manual Pull Style to Power Awning Conversion Kit, Black # LC329251 will simply require changing the heads on your awning frame and then wiring the unit. I've attached the photo from the installation manual that specifies how to wire the awning. There are specifics, but the biggest aspect not included in the kit is the wire to the battery and ground. You will want # 12-2-1 sold by the foot for your wiring. I've also attached a link to the instructions to assist. view full answer...
I checked with Blue Ox and their Patriot System part # BLU37TR is listed as a confirmed fit for your 2013 Fiat 500 and in the temporary install style of supplemental braking systems is the best option so it would be what I would recommend for you. view full answer...
Yes, the Curt Hitch part # C11364 will allow you to retain the spare tire mounted underneath your vehicle and will fit your 2015 Fiat 500L. I attached an install picture that shows the hitch installed with the spare tire intact as well. view full answer...
I am not entirely sure I understand what you are asking. The reason that you will need to install the Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit part # RM-751455 on your 2012 Fiat 500 is because the stop light circuit goes dead while the vehicle is in tow. Since the stop light circuit goes dead while in tow there would be no way to signal the motorhome that the brakes in the vehicle are being applied by way of a supplemental braking system. Therefore, a stop light switch kit is needed. The power... view full answer...
The Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-154 is confirmed to work on your 2014 Fiat Pop. Unfortunately we don't have a color coding for you either, but I can help you with the easiest way to figure it out. If you pull the tail light and then go though your functions, you will be able to see the bulb, the wire location, and the color. This will help you splice in your functions of your tow bar wiring. With the harness, brown goes to your running lights, green goes to your... view full answer...
When installing the tow bar wiring like part # 38955 on your 2003 Chevrolet Tracker, you want to install the diodes as close to the tail lights on your Tracker as you can.
I have attached a link to an installation video for this wire harness on an Equinox. The vehicle may be different but you can check out the video at about the 2:20 mark and it shows how they are installing the diodes with the wiring. When installing the wiring on your Tracker you may need to use a circuit tester like... view full answer...
What the diagram is trying to show is that the bolt and spacer block get routed through one access hole and the bolt will stick out of the adjacent hole with the block keeping it in place. So the block and bolt head are inside the bumper with the threaded part of the bolt sticking out.
The bolt and block will need to be fishwired into place by running the bolt leader through the hole the bolt will eventually stick out of and then out through an access hole. You will then put the block... view full answer...
When using friction-style sway control like the Reese, # 83660, it is recommended that you remove the sway control before backing up to ease reversing and prevent damage to your system.
As stated in the instructions, on some installations, damage to the sway control may occur during extremely sharp turning maneuvers. This can be checked by slowly backing vehicle into a jackknife position while someone is watching. Do not allow slide bar to contract completely (bottom out) or bumper to... view full answer...
