• Parts Needed To Flat-Tow a 2019 Chevrolet Spark LS With Manual Transmission
  In order to flat-tow a 2019 Chevrolet Spark LS (Manual Transmission) with all four wheels on the ground behind a motorhome you are going to need a tow bar, base plate kit, safety cables, tail light wiring harness, supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter.

• Complete Roadmaster Flat Towing Set Up For 2022 Chevy Spark LT w/ Manual Transmission
  Those parts will indeed fit your 2022 Chevy Spark LT with manual transmission, but there is one change I highly recommend, which is a tow bar different than the Falcon 2 # RM-520. The reason for that is the Falcon 2 can bind and is difficult to use without an added tool, the RoadMaster Release Tool # RM-066. It will be much, much simpler for you to disconnect a non-binding tow bar with quick-release latches, the Falcon All-Terrain. The All-Terrain also has guides for the wiring so the...

• Is the Stop Light Switch Kit Part # RM-751480 Required for a 2018 Chevrolet Spark
  On certain vehicles, the stop light circuit does not carry a 12 volt signal while the vehicle is off. The 12 volt power on the vehicle's stop light circuit will be needed to illuminate a light in the vehicle's windshield that will be used to tell if the brakes are being activated while sitting in your RV. The Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit part # RM-751480 will indeed be required while using the SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System part # SM99251 on your 2018 Chevrolet Spark....

• Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2020 Chevy Spart
  According to my research, manual transmission equipped models of the 2020 Chevy Spark are indeed capable of being flat towed. Automatic transmission equipped vehicles would need to be dolly towed, using a tow dolly like # RM-2050-1.

• Locating Brake Light Switch on 2017 Chevy Sonic for Installing SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Braking System
  In order to find the cold side of the brake light switch for connecting the red wire on the SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Braking System # SM99251, you will need to test for the wire beneath the brake pedal that only receives power when the brake pedal is activated. You can use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to test the wires on your vehicle. I was unable to find what color wire this is on your 2017 Chevy Spark. Also note that for the SMI Braking System to work properly on your vehicle, you...

• Why Disconnect Battery to Flat Tow Vehicle Behind Motorhome
  GM states in the owner's manual that to recreationally tow the vehicle, the negative battery cable must be disconnected. The owner's manual doesn't list a specific reason, it only states that failure to do so could damage the vehicle. The fact that the key needs to be left in the Accessory position while towing so the steering wheel doesn't lock up gives me a pretty good idea that with the key in the ACC position, there must still be an electrical draw on the battery. Disconnecting the...

• Does SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System Work With 2017 Chevy Spark?
  Your 2017 Chevrolet Spark actually has separate, and not combined, turn signal lighting so there would not be any confusion in regards to the turn signals also being used. The SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # SM99251 works with dual activation signals, so an inertia sensor must register deceleration and the RV's brake light must come on for it to work. Additionally, Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751480 is required to use this braking system on your Spark, as it taps into...
