Question:
What parts and instructions do I need to install a charging line for my toad in my 2016 Coachmen Mirada 35LS? Specifically need to know where to tap into the F53 wiring for a switched line.

Expert Reply:
For your 2016 Coachmen Mirada 35LS, to find a switched power line I recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993. Then you will use the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Motorhomes # RM-156-75 with solenoid # PK5231201 after the circuit breaker with the center post connected to your switched power line. This with make sure that power is only drawn from the motorhome when the ignition switch of your Coachmen is turned on.
Then on the towed vehicle (toad) side you can use the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-156-25.
