• Trouble Finding Brake Light Wire on a 2025 Ford F-150
  Hey Dennis, thanks for reaching out! According to the Roadmaster fitguide you're going to need a brake light switch as well since they weren't able to locate the color of the OEM brake light circuit wire. You'll use part # RM42MR if you have an adjustable brake pedal, or part # RM89ZR if you don't have an adjustable brake pedal. Once the brake light switch kit is in place, you'll have the signal you need to install the Brake-Lite Relay Kit # RM-88400. Are you installing all of your flat...

• Recommended Flat Towing Wiring Harness for a 2024 Ford F-150
  What a great question Howard. You should direct that request to Curt, Blue Ox, or Demco though. We don't make the wiring harnesses like the Curt item # C75WR you purchased, which does not have diodes in it. No one makes a plug and play for a 6-Way flat towing connection. The diodes included in the Roadmaster Smart Diode Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights item # RM38FR, or item # RM-152-1676-7 if you don't have LED lights, are installed to prevent feedback between a RV's electrical...

• Steps To Find Cold Side Brake Light Switch Wire On 2023 Ford F-150 When Installing Brake Controller
  We haven't had a chance to install a brake controller in a 2023 Ford F-150 yet (3/27/2023), so I can't tell you the wire color but I can tell you how to figure out which one you need to hook to. You'll need to use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 and with the truck on but not running, press the brake pedal and test the wires going to the brake switch (this will be a plastic looking thing on the brake pedal arm). You're looking for one that only has power when the pedal is pressed. If you...

• 2019 Ford F-150 Flat Tow Parts Recommendation with Blue Ox Avail Tow Bar
  I'm happy to help you get your 2019 Ford F-150 ready to flat tow! The Stay-IN-Play DUO braking system is another excellent choice and by going that route you won't need the Stop Light Switch Kit # RM89ZR but you will still need the Relay Kit # RM-88400 to keep the brake light signal on your F-150 from overriding the turn signal from the RV when you're applying the brakes during a turn. With the parts listed out here is the bare minimum that you need: etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit -...

• Location of Cold Side of Stop Light Switch for Brake Controller Installation on 2022 Ford F-150
  It looks like the OEM brake light switch is unusable on the 2022 Ford F-150. To complete the installation you will need to add the RoadMaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM89ZR if you do NOT have an adjustable brake pedal or # RM42MR if you DO have an adjustable brake pedal. The red wire on your # RED52VR will connect to this to complete the installation.

• 2019 Ford F-150 etrailer and Blue Ox Base Plate Kit Recommendation for Blue Ox Tow Bar
  Yes, the etrailer Base Plate Kit # e86YR is compatible with the Blue Ox Avail Tow Bar # BX7420 but you will need the Adapter Kit # DM9523127. I recommend using the etrailer Base Plate Kit # e86YR over the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BO74FR for your 2019 Ford F-150. The base plate kits are virtually the same when it comes to quality so since you like the looks and price point of the etrailer kit better that's what you should go with. You will also need some additional parts for flat towing...

• Can I Flat Tow a 2019 Ford F-150 With My Motorhome
  People flat tow pickups all the time and from what I could find it looks like your 2020 Thor Challenger 37TB can tow up to 8,000 lbs (you'll want to verify this in your owner's manual) which is more than enough for towing your 2019 Ford F-150. As far as recommendations go, I really like the Roadmaster products because they put a lot of thought into their designs so the only thing non-Roadmaster that I'll have is the tow bar simply because it's hard to argue with the price-point of our...
