Roadmaster Tow Bar Braking Systems - RM-751449
- Stop Light Switch
- Roadmaster
Avoid damage to your vehicle by ensuring that your supplemental braking system is properly positioned and working effectively. Kit activates your RV monitoring system to alert you when the brakes of your towed car are being applied.
Features:
- Activates motorhome brake-monitoring system whenever brake pedal in towed car is applied
- Ensures that the supplemental braking system is functioning properly
- Works great for any application that does not have a tow position in the ignition
- Wires directly into towed car's fuse box for constant current
- Made in the USA
- Limited Lifetime Warranty
Specs:
- Application: custom fit for your vehicle
- 12 Volts
This kit allows your RV's monitoring system to alert you whenever the brake pedal of your towed car is being applied. Other systems operate according to whether the air cylinder is extended and provide no indication of what is happening with the pedal itself. If your supplemental braking system is improperly installed, it may be continuously pressing on the pedal, impeding it from fully retracting and possibly causing damage to your vehicle's tires and braking system. With Roadmaster's Stop Light Switch Kit, you will always know when the brake is being depressed, and you will avoid costly damage.

Works as it should, a little difficult to install (physically), but had to have it for my application, well made and quality parts.

Really good.thank you!!

Unit worked well, fit nicely. Was awkward for me to install because of location under dash, but bracket was designed well fit right up.
by: Gary S09/04/2017
Upon the recommendation of one of your towing specialists, I ordered every component that I needed to flat tow my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee behind my 2013 Newmar Bay Star motorhome. I got the necessary Roadmaster tow bar and other accessories plus the SMI Stay-IN-Play braking system. I have towed over 5000 miles so far without any significant issues. Hook up is straight-forward and takes about 15 minutes to complete. I couldn't be happier with the towing experience!

Working like a champ! Install was a breeze with etrailer. Can't believe that I was on the road without a TOAD brake.
by: Duane 04/24/2021
Used it for the brake activation light in my towed vehicle. Easily adjustable as far as depth . Positioning took a little work but the bracket is specific to a vehicle other than mine.
by: Scott P.04/16/2017
All of the etrailer.com products I have purchased were perfect. The shipping was right on time. I have told several of my friends and acquaintances about etrailer.com.

Bracket came with one undersized bolt and nut. The bracket it attached to had two holes. If the bracket was longer and had another bolt it would be more stable.

I recommend looking at the video installation that we have on a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee starting at mark 2:18. You can see the bracket location and that it uses a five sixteenth by three quarter inch bolt.
by: Joe M., Katy, TX07/21/2018
Instructions in the kit and video on the website were very complete and made for a very easy installation. Suggestion to Roadmaster on the bracket....make some sort of positive location tab for the bracket because the location is only made secure by the tightening of the bolt. Also, the way the Jeep bracket that you bolt to is designed, there's no way to get a wrench or socket to hold the backside bolt head. Maybe come up with something to keep it from spinning.

Great product. Works great. Installation was a little tricky for my Jeep Grand Cherokee but we figured it out.

See what our Experts say about this Roadmaster Tow Bar Braking Systems
- Equipping a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee for Trailer and Flat TowingLet's begin with a hitch and trailer wiring for towing your RV with the Jeep Grand Cherokee. For a hitch, I'd recommend the Curt Class III hitch, part # C13182. You'll also need a ball mount and a trailer ball, provided in the # 989900 etrailer ball mount kit. For a brake controller, I'd go with the Curt # C51180 Echo Wireless Brake controller. The Echo will communicate wirelessly with your smart phone, which you'll use to control the braking action of the trailer. For a vehicle equipped...
view full answer... - Can the Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System be Used on a 2011 Jeep Grand CherokeeYes, you can use the InvisiBrake, # RM-8700, on your 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee. In order for it to work properly you will need to have a wiring system that taps into the vehicle wiring like # RM-154 and you will need Stop Light Switch Kit, # RM-751449. I have included a link to a video showing a typical installation of the InvisiBrake for you to view. I have also included some helpful links on flat towing for you.
view full answer... - Seat Adapter and Stop Light Switch Kit for BrakeMaster System on a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee OverlandTo use the Roadmaster BrakeMaster system # RM-9160 on your 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland, you will need the following items: Stop Light Switch kit, # RM-751449 Seat Adapter, # RM-88287 Because your Grand Cherokee has a combined lighting system (the brake lights and turn signals are on the same circuit) you should not need a brake light relay.
view full answer... - Where to Get Brake Signal For Installing Trailer Brake Controller On a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee?You will need the Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751449 for your 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee. This will provide you with a brake signal as the factory brake switch wiring is very thin and not recommended for splicing into. This switch includes a custom fit mounting bracket for attaching to your Jeep. I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED52VR which will include the universal wiring for connecting on your Jeep. This brake controller uses a small control knob and hides the...
view full answer... - Recommended Flat Tow Wiring Kit For A 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee The 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee is not compatible with bulb and socket kits from Roadmaster like the # RM-152-LED that you referenced. Bulb and socket kits will actually cause much more harm since you'd have to drill into the tail light housing and run the risk of damaging the light and will typically also face issues with water leaking into the taillight through the hole the bulb and socket kit uses. You'd be much better off just using a splice in kit like the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to...
view full answer... - Tips For Finding Cold Side of Stop Light Switch Wire on 2020 Jeep Grand CherokeeUnfortunately I do not have a video of finding the coldside of the stop light switch on your 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee, so you'll just need to keep testing the wires going to the stop light switch with a circuit tester like # PTW2993 until you find the one that only gets power when you press the brake pedal. I don't know which circuit tester you're using but the one with the hook makes it much easier to test those stupid small wires that the OEMs like to use for the brake light switch,...
view full answer... - What Powers The Diodes In A Diode Wiring Kit The diode wiring isn't going to be wired in series so you won't have to worry about the voltage increasing. It will only be powered by the 7-way of your motorhome when the brakes or the turn signals are activated on the motorhome. I've attached a video below where Ryan will walk you through the installation of your diode wiring. Since your 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee has combined wiring and an unusable brake light switch wire you'll need the Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751449 (WK...
view full answer... - Recommended Flat Towing Equipment For A 2019 Jeep Cherokee OverlandI have the following component recommendations to flat tow your 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland, but you'll still need to reach out to your local dealer for wiring harness information if your vehicle needs MOPAR RV towing wiring harness kit #82216418AA. Baseplate: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521440-5. Tow Bar: etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates # e74ZR. This tow bar comes with safety cables bracketed to the arms so that you...
view full answer... - Recommended Flat Towing System for 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland DieselThe SRT-8 Jeep Grand Cherokee is the Street and Racing Technology model which has some engine performance upgrades you would be aware of if you had. Since you mentioned you have the Overland, I can confirm you do not have the SRT-8 version. So your Roadmaster EZ5 Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-521440-5 are a fit for your vehicle. If you don't have the other flat towing components, I recommend the following to complete your system: Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount...
view full answer... - Will RoadMaster Pedal Clamp # 9329-b Work with a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee?The Replacement Pedal Clamp for BrakeMaster Braking System # RM-9329-B will work for your 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It is a fit for the Roadmaster BrakeMaster System # RM-9160 or # RM-9060. For either system you will also need the RoadMaster BrakeMaster Custom Seat Adapter # RM-88287 and Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751449 for proper function of that supplemental braking system.
view full answer... - How to Find the Stop Light Circuit on a 2018 Jeep Grand CherokeeFor starters, have you checked for the brake controller adapter port under the drivers kick panel near the emergency brake pedal (see video). If not I recommend doing so as most of these vehicles came with the brake controller adapter port regardless if yours came with the factory tow package or not. If you have a Tekonsha brake controller like the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195 and you have the brake controller adapter port then you can use the Tekonsha Plug-In...

The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit item # BX1128 is confirmed to fit the 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. I have linked an installation video below to show you how to get it set up. Here are some other parts you will need to flat tow a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited: Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Blue Ox Alpha 2 Non-Binding Tow Bar item # BX7380 Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire...
view full answer... - How to Flat Tow a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit Behind a Motor HomeThe trimming and drilling is minor for base plate installation on your 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit. I've linked the installation instructions for Roadmaster base plates # RM-521440-5 so you can see what is involved in the installation. In addition to the base plates you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking. For a tow bar I recommend the Sterling All Terrain, # RM-576, rated for 8,000 pounds. It also includes safety cables. For lighting,...
view full answer... - All Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Behind a MotorhomeYou are correct that there are quite a few parts necessary to flat tow your 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee behind your motorhome but I'll be happy to list everything you'll need. As you mentioned, you'll need base plates, and the Roadmaster EZ5 # RM-521440-5 is a confirmed fit for your Jeep so long as it is not an SRT-8 model, which since you listed this part I assume it is not. For a tow bar I recommend the Roadmaster Falcon 2 # RM-520 which is out most popular option due to how easy it is...
view full answer... - Recommended Flat Towing Equipment for 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee OverlandIn addition to base plates, you'll need a tow bar, safety cables, a wiring solution, a supplemental braking system and possibly a high/low adapter. For a tow bar, I typically recommend the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, part # RM-522. The Falcon AT is a non-binding and self aligning tow bar, which makes for very easy connection and removal without needing to have the vehicle perfectly aligned with the motorhome. For safety cables, use # RM-643. For a wiring solution, go with the Roadmater...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2014-2018 Jeep Grand CherokeeIn order to flat tow your Jeep Grand Cherokee behind an RV you need a base plate kit, a tow bar, safety cables, a lighting solution, a supplemental braking system, and likely a high-low adapter. Starting with the base plates, I recommend the Roadmaster EZ5 Base Plate Kit # RM-521440-5. This kit is custom fit for your Grand Cherokee and features a hidden bracket design that provides a clean look when you aren't towing. Its black powder coat finish is durable and corrosion resistant. Then...
view full answer... - How to Connect Brake Controller to Cold Side of Brake Light Signal Aside from the Stop Light SwitchTo accommodate your situation you would either need a stop light switch kit, like part # RM-751449, or simply connect the that specific wire from your brake controller to a 3rd brake light or any circuit that only gets hot when your brake pedal is pressed. A diode should not be used in this situation. The stop light switch kits are vehicle specific so it you could let me know what the year/make/model of your vehicle is I can see if we have one confirmed as a fit for your application.
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit with a Roadmaster Sterling Tow BarI'm not familiar with a Cherokee Summit so I think you mean you have a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit. If I'm wrong about this let me know. But I'll give you parts for both. Both Roadmaster EZ4 # RM-521440-4 and EZ5 # RM-521440-5 base plate kits that fit the Grand Cherokee will work with the Sterling tow bar. The same with the Cherokee except use EZ4 # RM-521447-4 or EZ5 # RM-521447-5. For either Jeep the Sterling tow bar safety cables will not work with the EZ5 kits. If you need...

- Comparing the Blue Ox Patriot and Roadmaster Even Brake Systems for a 2018 Jeep Grand CherokeeEven though the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR and the Roadmaster Even Brake # RM-9400 are very similar systems I recommend using the Patriot II. It is easier to set up, uses less power so it will take much longer for this system to drain your battery, and it doesn't require the use of additional parts so that it is compatible with your vehicle. Attached are some videos that you can reference for the installation. For a complete flat towing setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety...

You can certainly reach out to Jeep for verification but the latest online version of the manual also does not have this step as a requirement. So that will alleviate any of the issues, and in order to flat tow your '20 Grand Cherokee Laredo you will need the following: - Base Plate Kit: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit #...
view full answer... - Equipment Needed to Flat Tow 2017 Jeep Grand CherokeeI'd be happy to run through that for you. For base plates compatible with the Blue Ox # BX4370 Ascent tow bar, I'd recommend the # BX1128 base plates. The tow bar includes safety cables. For wiring, I'd recommend a diode system like the Roadmaster # RM-15267. The Roadmaster Even Brake, part # RM-9400 would be a great choice, it installs in just a couple of minutes and won't require an expensive and time consuming installation. You'll also need the # RM-751449 stop light switch. Finally,...
view full answer... - Recommended Flat Towing Setup for a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee LimitedFor your 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited I recommend starting with the Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit # DM9519291. Then you can use the Demco Commander Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,000 lbs # DM9511012 which has the included safety chains as well as the integrated adjustable head for proper fit. For your tow bar wiring I recommend the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 as well as the charge line kit # RM-156-25. This kit will allow you to utilize...
