Can TL21RK Magnetic Tow Lamps Be Plugged into 5-Pole Trailer Connector on Motorhome

Question:

Was looking to purchase the Heavy Duty Magnetic Tow Lights TL21RK to use with my RV. I tow a Kar Kaddy 3 which uses the 4 pin connector on the RV. There is also a 5 pin connection next to the 4 pin that isnt being used. Could the 4 pin connector from the light kit be used in the 5 pin slot? Will all of the light functions work as intended? If the 5 pin slot wont work, what would you recommend?

The 5-pin connector can indeed be used for the # TL21RK magnetic tow lights, if it's active. You can use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 as a helper activates each taillight function to confirm the 5-pin connector works. I've linked to a video showing my buddy Jameson demonstrating how to use the tester in case you're not familiar with how they work.
