A 7-way wire harness/connector plug is wired into your trailer to connect electrical power
from the tow vehicle for travel. This supplies power to the RV brakes, tail lights, clearance
lights, turn signals, brake lights, etc. Wiring to operate your brakes must be the same size
in both the tow vehicle and RV (the RV brake wiring is 12-gauge wire).
When attaching wires to your tow vehicle, carefully and tightly tape all the connections for

personal cargo is important for you to know so you do not exceed the Gross Vehicle

storage may exceed the amount of available cargo capacity.
compartments have been designed to accommodate normal camping items, which are
bulky, but not necessarily heavy.
DO NOT EXCEED YOUR GVWR! This means you should weigh your RV as
loaded for your normal travel to determine the actual weight.
