Wiring The Brakeaway Switch On The Bright Way Brakeaway Kit BW94FR  

Question:

I have a wiring question. I purchased the BW94FR breakaway switch and the #3375601101 junction box. I can understand most of the wiring - except the back wire coming out of the switch...which I think is for the flashing lights....? My trailer wiring has green, brown, and yellow in addition to black, white and blue - which I figured was truck power, ground, and brake which I believe is lights/turn signal/stop? how would I wire this on the JB terminals - jumpers perhaps? Thanks, Joe Picoraro

Expert Reply:

The Black wire coming from the breakaway switch would run to your junction box and connect to your brake wire terminal (this should be blue or black). The blue wire coming from the switch would go to the blue wire on the battery box. As far as connecting the wire you can use crimp connectors or better yet heat shrink connectors like #DW05745-5. We can provide these of course, or you should be able to find them at any hardware or electrical supply store.

I have included a picture of a diagram, as well as a link to an install video below.
