Fleetwood American Eagle - Towed Vehicle Wiring; Deep Snow and Mud Switch (if Equipped)

Eagle and Tradition Information
TOWED VEHICLE WIRING
Your motor home is equipped with an electrical
connector, from here on referred to as a hitch
plug, which provides an electrical connection
for your towed vehicle. The hitch plug is located
at the rear
of the motor home near the hitch
receiver.
It is a 7 position connector wired as
follows:
Please note this connector provides separate
positions for the two turn signals and brake
lights. This is necessary for the towed vehicles
that have separate amber turn signals in addition
to the red brake lights.
Some towed vehicles will not have amber turn
signals separate from the brake lights. They will
instead use the same lamp to indicate braking
as
well as turn signal. Towed vehicles with this
type
of lighting will not be able to utilize the
standard hitch plug on your motor home.
For towed vehicles with this type
of lighting you
will need to replace your hitch plug. A replace-
ment hitch plug wiring harness is available
through Fleetwood's American Coach Service.
This harness replaces your current hitch plug
and is easily installed in minutes.

DEEP SNOW AND MUD SWITCH
(IF EQUIPPED)
A deep snow and mud option switch is included
with ATe. This function increases available
traction on extra soft surfaces like snow, mud or
gravel, by slightly increasing the permissible
wheel spin.
Drivers use a deep snow and mud switch to
select this feature. When this function is in use,
the
ATC indicator lamp blinks continuously.
Switch and lamp locations will vary, depending
on the vehicle make and model.
