How To Run a Charge Line from Motorhome to Towed Vehicle
Question:
I bought the Hopkins wire harness for my 2021 jeep gladiator from you. I want to run a 12v power from my motorhome 7-way plug to the front of the jeep. Will this work with the 4-way and allow me to charge the towed at the same time. Also can you recommend the 96” spiral cord to go between this plug and my motorhome? I will be buying a Patriot 3 next

Expert Reply:
In order to charge a towed vehicle while in tow you will need a charge line kit for both the vehicle and motorhome. For this, we have the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Motorhomes part # RM-156-75 and Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles part # RM-156-25. Then, you'll need an umbilical to run the charge line between the towed vehicle and motorhome, the Roadmaster 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Kit part # RM-146-7. The 4-way won't allow this circuit to pass.
