Demco SBS Towed Vehicle Battery Charge Wire Kit Installation - 2021 Ford Escape- Video

Demco SBS Towed Vehicle Battery Charge Wire Kit Installation - 2021 Ford Escape

Hey everyone, Ryan here at etrailer. Today on our 2021 Ford Escape, we're gonna be showing you how to install the Demco Towed Vehicle Battery Charge Line Kit. Whenever you're flat towing your vehicle down the road, what can happen is your battery can get depleted. All right And that's because some of the systems on the vehicle are using battery power. A lot of stuff is electronic nowadays and is very voltage sensitive and the braking systems, whenever those are being turned on and you're hitting your brakes, those are also using battery power, so what can happen over time is the battery get depleted and eventually run flat and then you got kind of a headache on your hands, right And so that's where a charge line kit like this one here is going to come into play. What'll happen is it'll use auxiliary power from your motorhome 7-way, send that amperage back and essentially trickle charge or maintain your Escape's battery. more

Demco SBS Towed Vehicle Battery Charge Wire Kit Installation - 2022 Ford Escape- Video

Demco SBS Towed Vehicle Battery Charge Wire Kit Installation - 2022 Ford Escape

Hey everybody, how's it going Today, we're gonna be going over the Demco Battery Charge Line here on our 2022 Ford Escape. So a battery charge line is one of these smaller components of your flat tow setup, but it is a requirement here for the Escape because your battery will drain when you're towing it behind your motor home. So if you don't find a way to charge that from the motor home while you're driving, you're gonna arrive to the campsite with a dead battery, which is not something any of us want. So the battery charge line circuit is gonna hook up to the positive battery terminal here on the vehicle. So the battery's actually in the trunk, so we're hooking up to a positive terminal here on the engine bay. And then it's gonna consist of a wire that runs to the front of the vehicle, and then through the umbilical cord to the motor home. more

Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit Installation - 2022 Ford Escape

Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today on our 2022 Ford escape, we're gonna be showing you how to install the road master battery charge line kit for towed vehicles. But before we do that, why don't we check it out and see why this is a good idea to run on your Ford. So a battery charge line is something I pretty much recommend for every single vehicle that's getting flat towed, not just for escape. And I say that because it's just a really good idea to keep your battery maintained while you're flat towed. And that's exactly what this is gonna do. more

Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit Installation - 2020 Ford Escape

Hi there, Ford owners. Today on your 2020 Ford Escape, we're gonna be taking a look at and showing you how to install Roadmaster's Charge Line Kit. And this is what our charge line kit looks like when it's installed. It isn't gonna seem like a whole lot in the kit because really we just need to get power from our motor home to our battery, but we also need to make sure that we're doing it appropriately that's gonna keep our vehicles safe. So in your kit, you're gonna receive an appropriate gauge wire that's gonna have enough diameter in it to allow proper current flow to reach your battery and charge it up. We also need to make sure we've got an appropriate gauge circuit protection. more

Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit Installation - 2021 Ford Escape

Hey everybody, how's it going Today we're gonna be going over and showing you how to install the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line kit here on a 2021 Ford Escape. So if you're wondering why we're at the rear of the vehicle, normally we'd be installing these up under the engine bay, but for our Escape here, the hybrid model in particular, the 12 volt battery is located here in the trunk. Now, unfortunately, this means that we're gonna have to supply some extra wire that doesn't come in our kit in order to reach from the rear to the front of the vehicle. So this is what our battery charge line looks like. There's not much to this kit at all. We have a circuit breaker, which is going to help protect the vehicle's battery from any issues on the motor home. more
