Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit Installation - 2011 Ford Escape

Speaker 1: Today on our 2011 Ford Escape we're gonna be installing the Roadmaster taillight wiring kit, part number RM-152-LED. This kit's gonna give you all of the necessary lighting you'll need when towing your vehicle, it uses a completely separate bulb and wiring so it doesn't tap into your vehicle's wiring at all.This can be useful on some vehicle where the module is circuit protected where it may cause the bulbs not to blink fast of the FET to prevent the bulb from working. It's also great if your vehicle's still under it's factory warranty as splicing into your wires can void your warranty on your wiring, so if you have a wiring issue you may be forking over the big bill. Now this does void the warranty on your tail lamps because you have to drill into it, however wiring repairs are typically much more expensive than taillight assemblies.The wiring included in the kit will run from the bulbs up to your existing four, six, or seven pole connector. When hooked up to your RV all the signals from your RV will be sent back to these bulbs providing you with your left turn, right turn, tail, and stop lamp signals. They're made of LEDs which typically last much longer than your conventional bulb. more
