On the 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited the brake switch wire should be a white wire with a brown stripe. Use a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 to test the wire to make sure it is the one that only has power when the brake pedal is pressed.

Answer 9

The high-low adapters that are made more for flat towing setups instead of towing a trailer, like the Roadmaster #RM-048-10 which has a 10-1/4" rise/drop, actually only decrease the tongue weight rating of your trailer hitch when you use it for…
