Which Roadmaster Flat Towing Wiring Kit Recommended for 2016 Ram 1500 with LED Taillights
Question:
Just a comment about the wiring system Rm-155 for a 2016 Ram. The tail light lenses can no longer be separated from the bases as they are a sealed unit so you cant use the bulbs. LED now on the Laramie.

Expert Reply:
You are correct the Roadmaster # RM-155 cannot be used with the 2016 Ram 1500 models that have LED taillights.
For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with a round 6-way connector that you will install on the front of your towed vehicle and enough coiled wire to go from there to the RV.
