You will need a Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit # RM-156-25 installed on your 2021 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. This will take power from the charge line circuit on your motorhome and use it to maintain your battery charge on the Jeep. It connects into the 6-way connector that you should have on the front of your Jeep.
If they only did your wiring with a 4-way connector you will need the Roadmaster 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Kit # RM-146-7 to replace your current cable and connector on your Jeep.
Although rare, occasionally you will also need a Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Motorhomes # RM-156-75 if your charging circuit of the 7-way on your motorhome does not have power. This will provide you with the wring needed to give you a 15 amp charging circuit on your motorhome.
