The RM-766 is a solid piece of hardware and comes with absolutely everything required for the install, right down to the "Tow" and "Drive" stickers for the switch. I use it to disconnect the battery in my 2016 Ford Edge 3.5L AWD, to help make it flat towable behind my RV. It works great and I do not have to open the hood and mess with battery cables while travelling. I like it.

Installed in 2016 Ford Edge Titanium. Had to buy additional cable connectors that were not included in the kit and instructions did not specify they were required. I would have given 5 stars if it was at least mentioned in the instructions.

This product does what it's supposed to. I bought it from here instead of a place like Amazon BECAUSE of the customer service! Best around. They listened to my point of view and helped me make a decision for ME.

eTrailer was very helpful in choosing the correct hitch for our rv and car. They also provided a special brake application in the car that makes it super easy for toad braking. I am 72, and I hook up this toad and pull it with confidence. The instructions to hook up the toad was presented with ease. They knew exactly what they were doing, and we didn't rush through the demonstration. I would recommend eTrailer to anyone.

Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit Installation - 2016 Ford Edge
Speaker 1: Today on this 2016 Ford Edge, we'll be having a look at and showing you how to install the Hopkins custom taillight wiring kit for towed vehicles, part number HM56011.Here's what it looks like with our towed vehicle wiring installed. We have our brake lights running right now and you can see that it's utilizing our factory brake light and turn signal on our vehicle. Also, what's great about this is that this plugs into our vehicle's existing wiring with no cutting or splicing required. So we don't need to worry about voiding the warranty on our new vehicle. Another great feature about this wiring harness is that there's diodes built into it. So we don't have to worry about power from our motor home going to our lights and then being backfed into our vehicle's expensive electrical components.
2016 Ford Edge Accessories And Parts Questions
- The Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit # HM56011 that you referenced is only a direct fit for the Sport and Titanium models of your 2016 Ford Edge and won't work on your SEL.
The two 50 ohm, 10 watt resistors that you saw mentioned are required when using a standard diode kit like the Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power # RM-154 or the Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 (which is what I recommend) on the SEL models. This is because of the variable voltage tail light circuits on...
view full answer... - For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with a round 6-way connector that you will install on the front of your towed vehicle and enough coiled wire to go from there to the RV.
I confirmed with Roadmaster that this kit fits your 2016 Ford Edge as well.
view full answer... - The Magnetic Tow Lights - Red LEDs - 4-Way Flat Connectors - 20' Long Harness # PE26UR have a 35-40 lb pull force rating. The kit weighs less than 3 lbs so the magnets are very strong in comparison to the weight.
view full answer... - The Roadmaster hardwired diode kit # RM-154 for flat towing a car will not differ much from a similar kit from another maker, such as Blue Ox kit # BX8848. But since the Roadmaster kit includes a protective wire loom and has been highly-rated by many more users, I would opt for the Roadmaster kit # RM-154.
I linked a series of helpful articles concerning tow bar wiring options as well as installation videos for both kits.
view full answer... - There are a few things that you can do to troubleshoot the tow bar or dinghy wiring on your 2016 Ford Edge.
The first thing that I recommend you do is check in the owner's manual for specific instructions. Some cars have special instructions to ensure that the lighting works and nothing happens to the vehicle's engine while being towed.
The second thing that you can do is use a Circuit Tester, like part # PTW2993, to check the wiring harness on the RV to make sure that...
view full answer... - I looked up an online version of the owner's manual for your 2016 Ford Edge and it didn't say anything about a concern with the steering. I recommend checking your copy of the owner's manual and then, if you still have questions, a Ford dealer who would know more details about that end of the flat towing process.
For a complete flat towing setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low...
