The motorhome is pre-wired with an electrical harness for towing. The
harness is located on or near the hitch receiver. Convoluted tubing protects
the tow harness wires until ready for use. Current draw should not exceed
ten amps for each designated light circuit. Depending on the light
configuration of the tow car, an electrical taillight converter may be required.
NOTE: When towing a trailer or vehicle with a tow-wire
system, a turn signal/brake light converter will be needed to
adapt the tow plug wiring to the item being towed.
The Tow Harness Wires are Color Coded:
1. Brown, 12 gauge - tailights
2. White, 12 gauge - ground.
3. Green, 14 gauge - right turn signal.
4. Yellow, 14 gauge - left turn signal.
5. Black with White stripe, 14 gauge - brake light.
When hooking up a tow plug connection you should strip the wires 3/8".
Twist the wire and place under clip and secure screw. Make sure there are no
loose strands of wire which could short against the case or other terminals.
The motorhome can be equipped with a rear vision and voice system. The
factory will provide the wiring behind the dash and at the rear cap for future
installation. The rear vision system consists of a camera with a microphone
and a monitor.
The rear view system is designed to provide the driver with a view of the
rear of the motorhome. The field of view is 140° in the diagonal plane, 121°
in the horizontal plane, and 90° in the vertical plane.
The driver can see what is behind the motorhome with the ability to listen
to a guided assistant. This is useful during backing procedures. The rear
vision system will automatically turn ON when the gear selector is placed in
reverse. Turning the main power switch ON will allow continuous operation
of the rear vision system when the ignition key is ON.
