Roadmaster Universal Diode Wiring Kit Installation - 2015 GMC Acadia- Video
Hey, everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today, on our 2015 GMC Acadia, we're gonna be showing you how to install the Roadmaster diode wiring kit, but before we get into that, let me check it out and make sure it worked for you. Before we jump right in, I figured it'd be useful just to kind of touch base and refresh yourselves on the main components that we're gonna need to flat tow our Acadia down the road in the first place, and the first part is gonna be the base plate. That's gonna provide us with a solid and reliable attachment point. That way we can hook our towbar up to it. So, the towbar will be the second component that's gonna plug into the front of your base plate and connect to the back of your motor home. more

Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit Installation - 2019 GMC Acadia RM-152-1676-7- Video
Hi there, Caddy owners. Today in your 2019 GMC Acadia, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install Roadmaster's Diode Wiring Kit. There's five main components you'll need when flat towing your vehicle behind your motorhome. You'll need your tow bar, which is the connection between your motorhome and your vehicle; you'll need your base plate, which is the connection point your tow bar is going to attach on your vehicle; you'll need your diode wiring, which is going to take all the lights on your motorhome and transfer them to the lights at the back of your vehicle; you'll need your safety cables, which is a supplemental connection in addition to your tow bar; as well as your braking system, which will apply the brakes in our vehicle when we hit the brakes in our motorhome.The diode wiring kit will provide diodes that go in between the lights on your vehicle and your vehicles factory wiring. The diodes act as a one way check valve for electricity so that way when we send the lighting signals from our motorhome to the lights here at the back, they can only reach the bulbs to illuminate them and it will not be able to back feed into our system causing any damage to our wiring. It does work in the other order as well. more

Now, if you correspond with our owners manual and dingy towing instructions, it's going to tell you that you're going to have to remove the Bat 1, 50 amp fuse that's going to be located here underneath the hood. Now, we'll go ahead and remove the cover and shield up here so we can kind of tuck our ground and everything back underneath here if we can. Once you have all the push pin fasteners removed that go around the shield, you can pull it up and out of the way. This isn't necessary, but it does help out. more

Roadmaster Tow Bar Wiring Kit Installation - 2015 GMC Acadia- Video
We're going to review and install part number RN-154 from Road Master. This is a universal high-powered diode wiring kit, and we're going to install it on a 2015 GMC Arcadia. With this part number, this is a part series C. Starting from here, these are our diodes, you get four in the kit, and you get the terminal ends, connect up to your wires. Quick note about the diodes, is that when you add power to the system on a vehicle from the RV, what this does is makes your power comes in, doesn't matter which tab you use, and all this goes out in this direction here, typically towards your tail light. That way, power coming in from the RV doesn't back feed into the rest of the circuits in the car, and maybe potentially cause some problems. more
