Expert Answers about Chevrolet Emergency Vehicle Lights
- Could the Ram LED Lighted Vehicle Emblem # RP86619 Be Installed on Front of Vehicle
- There is potentially a way to install the Ram LED Lighted Vehicle Emblem # RP86619 on the front of your vehicle so that you could wire it up to come on with the running lights. But in most areas it is illegal to have any red or blue lights on the front of the vehicle as that is commonly seen on emergency vehicles so you would need to check with your local DOT to find out for sure.

- The Pilot Light-Up Hitch Cover, part # CR-007 would be compatible with your 5-pole connector, assuming that the 5-pole on your Pilot is wired to standard, with the fifth pin carrying the reverse light circuit. Any 4-pole accessory should be able to plug into your vehicle-side 5-pole, but if the plug on the accessory is fully-shrouded, you might need to trim a bit of the shroud off of the plug (see provided photo). This can easily be done with a sharp utility knife.

- There is a Prostrobe emergency light that comes in amber but the Rocky 8 Pro # PRS70747 comes only in white. Instead you could use the Prostrobe Rocky 4 Pro # PRS70750 which is smaller but does come in amber. It will provide the same functions as the white Prostrobe but with 4 LEDs instead of 8.
I've added links to a pair of video reviews of this light for you to take a look at as well.

view full answer... - Will a 7 to 5-Way Adapter Work with an Electric Reverse Lockout On a Surge Brake Trailer Coupler
- The center pole on a 7-Way trailer connector is the reverse light circuit. Provided that it is functional on your 2012 Toyota 4Runner, it will work with the electric reverse lockout on the coupler. You can use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to determine if the center pole works with the reverse lights.
First, apply the emergency brake and chock the wheels. Have someone start the vehicle and keep their foot on the brake and place the truck in reverse. Test the center pin on the 7-Way and...
view full answer... - Will 7-Way Adapter C35FR Allow Electric Reverse Lockout to Work When Connected to 2010 VW Touareg
- The 7-Way to 5- and 4-Way adapter # C35FR contains load resistors that provide more draw on the system so that the vehicle, in this case a 2010 Volkswagen Touareg, will not give that bulb out alert and the lights will work properly on the trailer. This should also include the reverse electric lockout solenoid on the actuator.
In some cases you will need additional load resistors, # DI34ZR, to get everything working properly.
Make sure that the reverse light function on the 7-Way connector...

- Yes, the connectors that plug in line with a vehicle 7-Way on the Hopkins Smart Hitch, # HM50002, will fit the factory 7-Way on your 2011 Toyota Tundra. Not too long ago, the major vehicle manufacturers all started using the same style of connectors for the 7-Ways, including Toyota, so no worries there.
You just have to make sure that the reverse light circuit is working because that is how the camera knows to turn on. When the vehicle is placed in reverse the camera and monitor will turn...

- I believe you are referring to the Adapter 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole part # 37185 which has the manufacturer part number of 47185B. The purple auxiliary wire can be used for 12V power, reverse lights or reverse lockout for trailer brakes.
The purple wire is normally connected to the reverse light signal of the Ford F-150 vehicle if your trailer has reverse lights or hydraulic brakes with an actuator that has an electric reverse lockout. You would need to use a circuit tester like part...

- I contacted our representative at Glacier Chains, and she informed me that the Glacier Emergency Twist-Link Snow Tire Chain, part # PW6081, will fit rim sizes between 15 to 18 Inches.

- A heavy duty flasher is not needed. The trailer wiring harness # 118496 will operate the turn signals and other lights without issue provided the power draw from the lights does not exceed what the harness is rated for.
As for the amperage rating you are correct. The instructions also state that the capacity is 7.5 amps total for tail lights and 2.1 amps per side for the brake and turn signals.

- I spoke with my contact at Blue Ox and you can use your Acclaim Tow Bar, # BX4330, with Base Plate Kit, # BX1118, for your 2002 Jeep Wrangler.
In addition to the base plates and tow bar, you may still need a lighting solution and in most states, a supplemental braking system. I am including a couple recommendations for you.
Optronics Magnetic Tow Lights, # TLL21RK, which provide the emergency flashers and signal lights required for towing without having to tap into existing wiring.

- Yes, the Tekonsha Prodigy RF Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # TK94FR only needs power from the battery charge line, ground and stop/turn signals to function. The power is what gives the controller its power and it watches for power going to both the brake lights to activate. This is the reason you cannot use the emergency flashers with this controller. It sees both side lights activating at the same time and cannot determine they are flashers versus the brake lights.

- When using tire chains you will want to use on all four tires to get the maximum traction with your vehicle. If you only use two chains you will want to install them on the drive wheels of your vehicle. On a 4-wheel drive vehicle they would go on the back.
On your 2008 GMC Envoy the typical tire sizes that come on your vehicle is the 245/65R17 or the 245/60R18. The 245/65R17 tire size can use the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains for Light Trucks # PW2014C. If you have the 245/60R18 tire...

This Harness plugs into the tail light assemblies on the truck so it is a very straight forward and simple installation. I have attached an installation video for your reference.

The light kit includes an adapter that will allow you to plug in to the 7 way on the back of your RV.

- All that you need to adapt the 4-pole flat to the 5 flat on the boat trailer is Tow Ready 4 Pole to 5 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter part # 20036. Since the boat trailer has a 5 flat then it has a reverse lock out. The blue wire from the 4-pole to 5-pole adapter will need to be spliced into the reverse circuit of the Explorer.
The reverse light circuit is at the back of the taillight assemblies of the Explorer. You may be able to access the back of your taillights by carefully loosening...
view full answer... - Can 4 and 5-Way be Used at Same Time for Boat Trailer and LED Light Strip on Adapter # 37385
- The LED light strip is not going to be using all that much power. However, what I recommend is to determine how much power draw the wiring system on the truck is rated for and compare that to the combined power draw of the trailer lights and light strip to be on the safe side.
Normally, you would not use the 4-Way and 5-Way at the same time. But if the LED light strip has a low enough power draw it should not be a problem.
You will also need to make sure that the 7-Way on the truck is...
