Should Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System Monitor Have a Separate Ground
Question:
Last step for invisibrake is to connect the motorhome monitor write to cold side of brake. The brake wires to my 2021 Ford Escape are LED type and have Green, Purple STOP, and Yellow Running lights. Is the Green the ground wire and that is what I should connect too? Thanks

Expert Reply:
You want any of the components from the Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System # RM-8700 to have their own ground so no, I would avoid tying a ground into the vehicle OEM system.
As far as the green wire on your Escape goes, I don't have a way to know off-hand what the wiring colors and functions are on your vehicle unfortunately.
