Oh, neighbors it's Brad here at etrailer. And today we're taking a look at the Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo proportional braking system for flat tow vehicles.

You can get the wired version, which you will actually tie it into your connection right there, or a wireless version. The only difference between the two is on your wired system, you run an LED light here, and that way you can look in your rear view camera or your mirror of your RV and see the brake lighting up, when applied on the vehicle. more

Shane: Hi, Shane here with etrailer.com, today, I'm going to walk through how installed Demco Stay-IN-Play duo supplemental braking system on your 2017 Honda HRV. Supplemental braking system is one of the seven main components to flat tow the HRV. The other six, are going to be your base plate, your tow bar, your wiring, your safety cables, and you're going to have two fuse bypasses that need to be installed. The braking system is a very important part of flat towing your vehicle.

What that means is when you apply the brakes in the RV, it's going to match the amount of pressure you're putting on the brakes inside the vehicle.So when you apply the brakes in an emergency situation, it's going to apply that same amount of pressure in the HRV. more

Speaker 1: Today on our 2010 Honda Odyssey, we're going to take a look at and also show you how to install the Roadmaster break light relay kit. Part number is RM-88400.This is what our break light relay kit's going look like. Essentially, this is going to solve the common problem that we have on the Odyssey of when the brake pedal is pushed in our vehicle, and it's in tow mode, it overrides the blinker signal coming from our motor home, so if we're . turn on the blinker in our motor home and hit the brakes, so we can make a turn, the blinker on the back of the towed vehicle or of our Odyssey doesn't work, so we're not really signaling our direction.This is going to alleviate that for us. What this does is the signal coming out from the brake pedal that goes back to the brake light .. when the vehicle's in towed mode, it's going to cut that signal out, so it's not going to over ride our motor home. more

Now, what sets this apart from other braking systems on the market is that it's a permanent installation, and that there is no set up required once we install it. You don't have to flip any switches each time you're going to flat tow your vehicle behind your motor home. All you have to do is just hook it up and hit the road. Another thing that sets this apart from other systems on the market is this does offer us the most leg room and foot room underneath the dash once it's installed. more

Roadmaster Brake-Lite Relay Kit Installation - 2008 Honda CR-V

Today on our 2008 Honda CRV we will be having a look at and installing the Roadmaster Brake-Lite relay kit for tow vehicles, part number RM-88400. When we don't have a brake light relay installed on our towed vehicle, when we are towing it behind our motor home and our turn signal is on then our brakes are depressed, we have the issue of our brake lights coming on on our towed vehicle overriding the turn signal from our motor home. Now with the Brake-Lite relay installed and operating, when we step on the brakes on our RV with our turn signal on, our brake signal does not override the turn signal function when the brakes are applied inside of our tow vehicles with the supplemental braking system. Now that gone over some features, we'll show you how to get it installed. To begin our install we're going to be working on the left side of our dash, right underneath our steering column right here. We'll remove this black plastic panel right here. To do that, there's a twist knob off to the left of it towards the back. Twist it 90 degrees, grab the panel, pull down. You can set it aside. more

Today on our 2011 Honda CRV we'll be having a look at and installing the Roadmaster Brake Lite Relay Kit for Towed Vehicles, part number RM-88400. With our brake light relay installed we don't have to worry about pulling any fuses or flipping any switches, or anything of that nature in order to get our vehicle into tow mode safely. This will allow us to flat tow our CRV behind our motor home, and when our motor home's turn signals are on and the brakes are applied in the motor home, applying our towed vehicle braking system in our CRV, the brake light switch in the CRV won't override the turn signals that we we're getting signal from in the motor home because this disables the factory brake light switch, making us get all of our lighting signals from the RV itself, treating our CRV just like a trailer. When we unhook from our motor home when we arrive at our destination, in order to re-enable our brake light switch so we actually have functional brake lights, again, all we have to do is just stick the key in our ignition and start our vehicle like normal, and we'll have working brake lights once again. As soon as you turn the key off and remove it, it disables your brake lights, making it easier and safer for your brake lights and turn signals to work when we're in flat tow mode. Now that we've gone over some features, we'll show you how to get it installed. All right, in order to gain access to our brake light switch there's two panels on our dash that we need to remove. This one right here and then a black one underneath it. more

You may notice this vehicle is already had a breaking system installed at one time, so you may that there's a few items that we'll actually be replacing and installing the new SMI parts. In order to begin and gain access to the wiring that's already installed on this vehicle, we're going to need to remove these push fasteners up here that hold the top cover in so that we can get access down and behind the grill. Now, in order to remove those, we're going to use a flat head screwdriver, or a trim panel removal tool. We'll simply slide underneath the edge here in the middle, and then work the center of the fastener out so it comes up like that. Go ahead and remove all these fasteners in the same way. more
