Hey guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today we have a 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 and we're gonna be taking a look at and I'm gonna show you how to install the Roadmaster diode wiring kit. Adding diode wiring to your Sierra is gonna allow you to safely flat tow it when you're headed down the road. The purpose of adding diode wiring is very, very similar to trailer wiring. If you're pulling a trailer behind your truck, you've gotta have safe lights that are working on the backside of your trailer. That same goes for if you're pulling your Sierra behind your motor home. more

Roadmaster Diode 7 to 6 Wire Coil Kit Installation - 2020 GMC Sierra 1500- Video
Ryan: How's it going Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2020 GMC Sierra 1500, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Roadmaster Diode Wiring Kit. So there's going to be five main components needed to flat tow your Sierra down the road. You're going to have a base plate, your tow bar, your tow bar wiring, your braking system, as well as your safety cables.Now, the purpose of the diode wiring kit is to transfer the lighting functions from the back of your motorhome to the back of the Sierra keeping you safe and legal. And what's really nice about this kit is that it uses diodes. Now those diodes are actually going to protect your vehicle's factory wiring if a short or an electrical issue we're to occur on the motorhome side.Now there is another option available to provide you those lighting functions and that's called magnetic lighting. more

Roadmaster Diode 7 to 6 Wire Coil Kit Installation - 2016 GMC Sierra 1500- Video
Rob: Rob here at etrailer.com, and today, you're going to be taking a look at the Roadmaster high powered diode wiring kit on our 2015 GMC Sierra 1500.Now our diode kit is going to allow us to take signals from our motor home, and transfer them to our GMC, so whenever we're towing it, everyone around us knows what's going on. Whether we're changing lanes, or we have our turn signal on, or we're slowing down, all the drivers around us can see the signals at the back of our truck.Keep in mind, this is only going to be one component for a safe flat tow setup for your Sierra. For our Sierra, we're going to need a base plate, a tow bar, safety cables, tow bar wiring, and a braking system. And specifically, for our GMC Sierra, I do recommend getting a battery disconnect, because it is going to make it easier, rather than disconnecting the battery.Whenever you're towing, it is important to have your lights, so everybody knows what's going on, but our diodes are going to allow us to get the lights to the back, without having to have an extra step, like you have with those magnetic lights. Those, you're going to have to set them up, each time you want to tow your truck, and then, once we get where we're going, we're going to have to take them down.Not to mention, typically, there's a wire that's going to be running all the way along the side of the truck, going to the front, to hook up to the motor home. And that wire could potentially start dragging against the paint, and as we're going down the road, eventually scratch it.Our diodes are going to be a one-time installation, so we're not going to deal with any of that. more

Roadmaster Diode 7 to 6 Wire Coil Kit Installation - 2017 GMC Sierra 1500- Video
Today on our 2017 GMC Sierra, we're gonna be taking a look at, and show you how to install the Roadmaster diode seven wire to six wire flexo-coil wiring kit, part number RM-15267.This is what our wiring looks like when it's installed on our vehicle. You can see the six pole plug keeps a nice clean look on the front of the vehicle. It's going to have a spring loaded lid. On the inside of the lid, it's going to have a little lip that's going to sink right down inside of that circle, it's going to help keep any dirt and debris from getting in on our connections. This is going to give us the connection point between our RV and our GMC to transfer all our light functions to our towed vehicle, and how it's going to do that is with our umbilical cord. Our umbilical cord, you can see it is coiled, this is going to help keep it from dragging the ground while we're traveling. more
