Installation -Roadmaster Fuse Bypass Switch - 2020 Chevrolet Sonic- Video
Hi there Chevy owners. Today in our 2020 Chevy Sonic, we're gonna be taking a look at and showing you how to install Roadmaster's fuse bypass kits. We're gonna be using a double fuse harness as well as two single harnesses to disconnect all the fuses required on our Sonic today. These fuse bypass kits will allow you to quickly remove the fuses from your vehicle with a simple press of a button. Oftentimes your vehicles require fuses to be pulled when placed into flat-tow mode to prevent the battery from draining and to ensure it's in a safe state where you can pull it without causing any damage to the vehicle. To prevent you from having to open the hood and pull out a fuse and some of the fuses are pretty small, you need a little like a pair of needle-nose pliers or a fuse puller to be able to get 'em out. more

Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass Switch Installation - 2019 Chevrolet Sonic- Video
Rob here at etrailer.com, and today you're going to be taking a look at the Roadmaster Fusemaster fuse bypass on our 2019 Chevrolet Sonic.We have our switch mounted on this panel right here, that's right in front of our fuse box, on the driver's side. Now, you can see we have a double and a single hooked up, and these are just going to hold the factory fuses in place, so we're not going to have to worry about carrying them around or losing them.Our fuse bypasses are going to come with everything you see here. Will come with the harness, the switch, as well as all the cables necessary to get it installed. Just keep in mind that the double and the single are going to be sold separately. And we have one fuse that actually needs to be pulled underneath our hood and it's actually a low profile ATM fuse. Our Fusemaster is going to use mini fuses, so you will need to pick up an additional mini fuse, so that we can put it into the fuse holder.So if you're new to flat towing or you've been doing it for a while and your tired of crawling under the dash, crawling under the hood every time you want to tow or drive your car, the Fusemaster is going to make it really easy just to flip a switch and hit the road. more

Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit Installation - 2019 Chevrolet Sonic- Video
Rob: Rob here at etrailer.com and today we're going to be taking a look at the Roadmaster LED bulb and socket kit on a 2019 Chevrolet Sonic. Now whenever you're flat toning your Sonic, it's going to be really important that we have lights on our Sonic matching the ones on our RV.Now there's a few different options on how you can do that. You can do the bulb and socket or you can go with the magnetic lights. Magnetic lights are a way that have been used for a long time, and they do work. But every time we want a tow, we're going to have to set those magnet lights up, run a wire all the way to the back of our motor home, potentially scratching the paint on our car. Let's face it, it's just a hassle every time we want to drive or tow our Sonic, we have to set something up.But with our LEDs, it's going to be a one time installation, and then we just plug our lights in like normal, and we'll have all our signals at the back. more

Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 Chevrolet Sonic we're going to be taking a look at, and showing you how to install the Roadmaster FuseMaster fuse bypass switch for towed vehicles with two 20 amp mini fuses, and that's going to be part number RM76512. Now we're also going to be installing the Roadmaster FuseMaster fuse bypass with the single 20 amp mini fuse, part number RM76511, because of our specific configuration. You should always double check your owner's manual and see which fuses need to be pulled in your Sonic.So here's what our fuse bypass switches look like once we have them installed. The owner's manual in our Sonic does recommend that we pull a fuse out before we tow, and these switches are going to prevent us from having to reach underneath the dash, or going underneath the hood every time that we tow it. A simple flip of the switch and we're going to cut the power going to those fuses, but at the same time flip them back and our car will drive like normal.Now an easy way to show you that our switches are working is right now they're both in the drive position. So if I turn my ignition on, we can see that everything's working normally. more

Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit Installation - 2016 Chevrolet Sonic- Video
Today on our 2016 Chevrolet Sonic we are going to be taking a look at and installing the Road Master Tail Light Wiring Kit with Bulbs part number RM-155. Here's what it looks like once it's installed on the vehicle. Right now we've got the tail lights on so you can get a feel for how bright it's going to be and in there you can see the extra bulb that we put in there that's currently on along with the factory bulb. The new bulb is going to give us both tail lights, and turn, and brake signals in order to properly alert vehicles behind us when we're towing that our vehicle and our RV are stopping or turning. This lighting system is going to do a good job of making sure that the vehicle is seen behind the RV but another nice thing about this is that it doesn't tap into the vehicle's wiring system at all. It wires directly into the wiring that you install coming from the motor home. Therefore, you can avoid possibly having a back feed or surge in the electrical system of the vehicle. Now, let's go ahead and show you how to install it. First thing we'll need to do is get our wiring routed. more
