Auxiliary Lighting For a Bike Rack Behind a Flat Towed 2024 Chevrolet Trax
Question:
Question about lights for a bike rack. I have a 2018 Winnebago View, a 2024 Chevy Trax set up for flat towing, and a Hollywood RV Rider bike rack HLY64FR attached to the Trax. I now realize that. especially with the bikes covered, I will need lights on the bike rack. The Trax does not have a trailer wiring socket to plug into and when flat towed the battery must be disconnected. My RV shop said they could tie into the wiring they already completed for flat towing on the Trax and provide I think a 4-pin connector for the bike rack lights. I plan on using the rack on the Trax when flat towed and when driven without being towed. So, what lights would you recommend? TIA

Expert Reply:
As long as the flat tow wiring is wired in before the 4-Way # C93ZV and you connect the power for the converter directly to the battery it will work. I have seen several use Magnetic Lights # TL21RK which they will wire in on the main harness to have additional lighting and a separate 4-way connector just for that purpose.
