Can 7-Way at Rear of Vehicle and in Bed of Truck be Used Both at the Same Time
Question:
Im looking to put a slide-in camper in my 2105 Ram 3500 HD and also tow a trailer behind it. My question can I use both of my 7 way plugs at the same time as I have 1 in the bed for the camper to run the lights etc... and I need the bumper 7 way to power the trailer brakes etc.. ? If yes do I need anything else to do this ? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
Both of the 7-ways of your 2015 Ram 3500 will be active at the same time so yes you can use them simultaneously. The only thing to keep in mind is that you will have a bit more of an amperage draw on the circuits that are getting used in both places.
If you need a 7-way to mount in the bed of your truck we have the part # 41157 which would work well.
