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 tum signals and brake
lights. This is necessaty for the towed vehicles
that have separate amber turn signals in addition
to the red brake lights.
Some towed vehicles will not have amber tum
signals separate from the brake lights. They will
instead use the same lamp to indicate braking as
well
as
tum
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 hamess is available
through Fleetwood's American Coach Service.
This hat'ness replaces your current hitch plug
and is easily installed in minutes.
