2010 Chevrolet Equinox Tow Bar Wiring Installation And Review Videos

Best 2010 Chevrolet Equinox Flat Tow Setup - Wiring- Video

Hi there, Equinox owners. Today we're going to be taking a look at the best flat tow options for your 2010 Chevrolet Equinox. There's five main components you'll need when flat towing your vehicle behind your motor home. You'll need your tow bar, which is the connection between your motor home and your vehicle, your safety cables, which is a supplemental connection in addition to your tow bar, your baseplate, which provides a connection point at the front of your vehicle, your diode wiring, which takes all the lighting signals from your motor home and transfers them to the lights at the back of your vehicle so people around you know your intentions when going down the road, and lastly your supplemental braking system, which will apply the brakes in your vehicle when you hit the brakes in your motor home to help it come to a safe stop.Our customers decided to use Blue Ox's baseplate, which is a great baseplate. But, however, I would recommend Roadmaster's direct-connect baseplate kit. I find that the Roadmaster baseplate just has a little bit cleaner installation and provides better connection points when mounting your hardware such as your electrical and breakaway switch.Our customer opted for Roadmaster's Falcon 2 tow bar. more

TrailerMate Tail Light Wiring Kit Installation - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox TM780072- Video

Today on our 2010 Chevrolet Equinox we'll be installing the Trailer Mate custom tail light wiring kit for towed vehicles, part number TM780072. To begin our install we'll first start at the rear of the vehicle where we'll open up the rear hatch. Then we'll need to remove both tail light assemblies. To remove the tail light assemblies we'll first remove the two fastener covers on each side. Using a small bladed screwdriver we can go ahead and pop them out of the way and sit them aside for re-installation. Then we'll go ahead and remove the fasteners. Next we'll need to remove the tail light assembly being careful as we pop it out of its position not to break the alignment tabs underneath. more
