Question:

Michael, Thank you for your reply re: 118549. I understand to use HM56008 and the 7 round to the 4 flat. The Focus has separate lights for tail, brake and turn. I understand then, #HM56008 will use the brake lights for brake and turn signal? Can I use a coil wire from the 7 round to the car, then use the adapter there, or is the adapter better at the rear of the coach using HM56008 to the coach? I think, if better for the adapter at the coach, then some type of flexible conduit would be good to have. Thanks again.

Yes, the tow bar wiring harness # HM56008 will work as a combined system, with the brake lights and turn signals on the same circuits. You could use ta 7-Way to 4-Way adapter either directly in the 7-Way on the RV or at the end of a coiled extension. But I was able to find a nice long coiled cable to go from a 7-Way to a 4-Way, # 787196.
