Towed Vehicle Wiring - Fleetwood American Eagle 2006 Owner's Manual

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 conne<;tion
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:

Heritage Information
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 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.
