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 prqvides 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:
RUNNINGI
MARKER
LIGHTS
D048
LEFT TURN
STOP---.../'~
NOTCH
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.

AS SHOWN FROM PLUG SIDE
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
replacement hitch plug wiring harness is avail-
able through Fleetwood's American Coach
Service. This harness replaces your current hitch
plug and is easily installed in minutes.
