Roadmaster Universal Diode Wiring Kit Installation - 2024 Chevrolet Tahoe

Hey guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today we have a 2024 Chevrolet Tahoe and we're gonna be taking a look at and I'm gonna show you how to install the Roadmaster diode wiring kit for flat towing. Adding a diode wiring kit to the taillights on your Tahoe is going to give you the same type of functioning that you would if you had trailer lights. So because you're pulling your vehicle behind your motor home, you have to be able to transfer the lighting signals from the motor home to the back of your Tahoe, and that's what these are designed to do. They're gonna tie in behind the taillights with your factory wiring so that when you're not using your vehicle to be flat towed behind your motor home, your taillights are gonna operate just as normal. There are a couple other options out there on the market for lighting to get lights to the back of your vehicle while you're flat towing it. more

And then you have to find a place to store those whenever you're not using 'em.
