Question:

Have a 2013 jayco 26rls and 2011 tundra, when I plug in the 7 prong adapter will this power the electric hitch? I just had a dead battery and replaced the battery before testing.

As long as the 7-way on your 2011 Toyota Tundra has the 12 volt circuit active and you wire the # BD500200 to the 12 volt circuit on your trailer 7-way (the 9:00 pin), the jack would work.

It's typically preferred to power the jack off of a battery, but this method will work as well.
