We do not have wiring diagrams for individual coaches and the color of the wiring isn't always going to be a reliable way to determine their functions. In order to install a multi-function light like theDual LED Trailer Tail Light - Stop, Turn, Tail, Backup - Red and Clear Lens # CE86FR or the Command Triple LED Tail Light that is likely on your Sunseeker, you'll need a circuit tester like the # PTW2993 and a friend to help you out running through the different functions.

You'll want to turn on the blinkers on your 2017 Forest River Sunseeker and determine which wire gets voltage and then connect the corresponding wire on the light for that function; you'll then press the brakes and see which wire is powered and connect it to the corresponding wire on the light. This will allow you to match up the functions of the wires on your coach with the light wires.
