• Installing a Battery Charge Relay Blows 10 Amp Fuse on a 2007 Lincoln Navigator
• Ford would certainly tell you that you must use the specific Ford relay for your 2007 Lincoln Navigator. A generic one that is rated and configured the same as that Ford relay should work just fine. But this one that was installed had to be modified and sounds like there is a good chance that it is not the right type of relay and could be the reverse polarity of the one that is needed. That would cause the fuse to blow. I recommend getting the right relay from a Ford dealer. You will also...

• Difference Between Kuat Transfer V2 - 2 & 3 Bike Hitch Lock
• Yes it is. The Hitch Lock for Kuat Bike Racks - 2" Hitches, part # HL2, will work with the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes but not the Kuat Transfer V2 Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 3 Bikes. The bike racks are secured to the vehicle in different ways, thus the incompatibility. The anti-rattle hitch bolt of the Transfer V2 works like a traditional threaded hitch pin to eliminate the movement between the hitch receiver and the hitch bike rack. The Transfer V3 has an anti-rattle device...

• Waterproof Storage Bag Option For A Trailer Hauling An Old Town 106 Sportsman Kayak
• I took a look at the Storage Trunk for Malone MicroSport and XtraLight Trailers # MPG481 that you mentioned, and it turns out that this trunk is actually not waterproof, however I do have another alternative.

• Front Mount Trailer Hitch for a 1998 Lincoln Navigator

Also make sure the front axle capacity is high enough for use with a plow.

• Roof Mounted Bike Carrier Recommendations For 2012 Lincoln Navigator
• I did some research and found that the roof weight capacity for your navigator is 200-lbs. With factory crossbars you will probably need to measure the length of the crossbars to see if 4 bikes would fit when placed side by side on the roof. The Thule UpRide, part # TH599000, would work great on your factory crossbars. This bike carrier will work with wheels from 20 inches to 29 inches diameter. When placing the bikes on the roof of your Navigator I recommend staggering the bikes front...

• Will the Titan Tire Cables TC2028 Fit Tire Size 275/65-18
• The Titan Chain Cable Snow Tire Chains # TC2028 that you referenced have been confirmed as a fit for the tire size 275/65-18 that you have on your 2003 Lincoln Navigator. So as long as the owners manual of your vehicle doesn't have any restrictions on using cables these would fit and work well. I attached a install video for you to check out as well. You will need to check the owners manual to determine if there are any tire chain restrictions.

• Trailer to hitch level
• The best practice is to have the trailer as close to level as possible. If your trailer is only pointing upward by an inch or so, you will be fine. If you are talking about more than 1-1/2 inches, you might want to consider a ballmount with more rise or drop to get the trailer closer to being level. We have a helpful FAQ page that illustrates how to determine how to determine the required rise or drop on your ballmount. I will include a link below.

• How to Change 4-Way Wiring Harness to 7-Way Wiring Harness to Add a Brake Controller
• You will need to upgrade your wiring harness if you are wanting to add brake controller capabilities to your 2014 Lincoln Navigator.

• Will Brake Circuit on 7-Way Show Brake Output Power When Vehicle is Still
• In a typical vehicle 7-way socket the blue wire for the brake circuit (carried on the pin at the 5-o-clock position) will carry the trailer brake signal from the brake controller back to the 7-way socket. Whether or not you will detect a signal on that blue wire when the Navigator is still and with no trailer connected depends on the type of controller. A time-delay type controller like # 39523 will send out its selected power output whether you are moving or still, either by pressing...

• 2015 Lincoln Navigator Brake Controller Plug Location
• Installing the Prodigy P3 part # 90195 is pretty easy on your 2015 Lincoln Navigator. Basically you need to remove a panel on the dash and the connector is there for you to attach to. See attached picture. A mechanic could knock it out really easily but I think you'd have no problem at all. The correct adapter you need is the # 22292.

• Recommended Brake Controller for 2018 Lincoln Navigator
• I have a solution for you but I was able to find out that the 2018 Lincoln Navigator is not pre-wired for any type of brake controller installation, so your best bet is going to be to use a wireless brake controller like the Curt Echo # C51180. This unit plugs into your 7 way controller and is controlled wirelessly by your Bluetooth enabled smart phone (requires iOS 8.0 or Android 4.4- or newer). This is a proportional brake controller so it will provide you with responsive braking in by...
