Is a Charge Line Kit Needed on a 2014 Honda CR-V if the ACC Fuse is Pulled for Flat Towing
Question:
If I pull the ACC fuse on my 214 Honda CR-V is there any need to have a battery charging line installed?

Expert Reply:
Unless you are using a supplemental braking system like the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR which draws power from a 12V outlet like part # RM-9332 then you would need the Charge Line Kit # RM-156-25 when the ACC fuse is pulled on your 2014 Honda CR-V.
If you were to install the charge line kit you wouldn't need to pull the ACC fuse or it would act as a safeguard in case you did forget to pull that fuse.
For a complete flat towing setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter. If you do not have all of these components just let me know and I can make some additional recommendations for you.
