Installation of Roadmaster Even Brake 2nd Vehicle Kit on Vehicle Using Magnetic Tow Lights
Question:
I will be installing this in a ford fiesta but my question is if it will be using a magnetic tow lights do I still need to wire in the brake light relay. And if not how do I wire in the cold side of the brake switch to the transmitter?

A brake light relay is not required when installing the Roadmaster Even Brake # RM-9400 on a vehicle that will be using magnetic tow lights. I am attaching a copy of the instructions for the EvenBrake which details the process of installing the Even Brake 2nd Vehicle Kit # RM-98400 when there is no brake light relay installed.
Essentially, if the Brake-Lite Relay was not installed — connect the “cold” side of the brake light switch to the terminal marked “1” on the ICX terminal. This information is available on page 7 of the linked instructions.
