Question:
Hello Wiring harness for Fiat 2018 500X I purchased a new Fiat 500X car and a Roadmaster RM3477 dolly tow. What wiring harnesss do I need to wire up the brake/tail lights? Any needed parts also. My motorhome is a new Thor Freedom Elite 24FE on a Mercedes Sprinter Chassis. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Expert Reply:
When using the The Roadmaster Tow Dolly part # RM-2050-1 to tow your 2018 Fiat 500X behind your Thor Freedom Elite 24FE, the tow dolly will do the signaling, not the vehicle. Therefore you need a 7-way trailer connector for both the tow dolly and motorhome unless you already have them.
For the motorhome, I recommend using the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C59236 with the Universal Installation Kit part # ETBC7. Since your motorhome is larger than the average vehicle you will also need some extra wire # 10-2-1.
Do you have a brake controller? If not you will need one and for that I recommend using the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195. For the tow dolly, I recommend using the Pollak Black Plastic 7-Pole RV-Style Trailer Connector part # PK12706 and that's it. It already has the wires ran. You don't need any harness for your vehicle.
