Expert Reply:
Your 2022 Chevy Equinox LT requires flat tow wiring with smart diodes because your Chevy's tail lights have variable voltage, which means there is just one wire that sends different voltage to the lights based on if the brake lights or turn signals are on. The smart diodes regulate that voltage to ensure the correct signal is received. The right kit is going to depend on if your Equinox has LED or incandescent tail lights:
- LED: Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights # RM38FR
- Incandescent: Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit for Variable Voltage Incandescent Tail Lights # RM26FR
