Can Diode Tow Bar Lighting Kit be Installed with T-One Style Trailer Wiring on 2019 Jeep Wrangler
Question:
I have installed wiring kit 118782 now 118786 to tow a trailer behind my Jeep. Next I will need to wire the Jeep for flat towing. My question is will the diodes have to be connected to the existing Jeep wiring before the T-connectors I have installed from kit 118782?

Expert Reply:
As long as there isn't anything connected to the trailer wiring's 4-way when you are flat towing (there shouldn't be) it wouldn't matter if you install the diodes of a tow bar wiring kit like # RM-15267 before the trailer wiring. It would interact with the trailer wiring in the same way as your vehicle wiring does when there isn't a trailer connected.
I attached an install video for this kit on a similar Wrangler for you to check out as well.
