Parts Needed to Add Charge Wire to Flat Towing Setup
Question:
I ordered my parts from you after discussing with your technicians exactly what I needed. No one mentioned the battery charger. How do I connect the wire going to the motorhome when I have the 4 socket plug on the tow vehicle?

Expert Reply:
Roadmaster has two charge line kits for this situation where the battery needs to be charged. The part # RM-156-25 which was designed for supplying the towed vehicle with wiring for charging the battery and the part # RM-156-75 which is for creating the charge line on the tow vehicle side.
If you have a 4-way setup you'd need to swap to a 6-way for the wiring so that you have enough circuits for the charge line. So for that you'd need the part # PK11604 and # PK11609.
