Question:

Hi! I have a 2012 Honda C-RV all set up with Blue Ox braking system and previous owner put in a fuse by-pass switch. The wires have been compromised and I need to replace it. Dont think I need the part with the adapter to plug into but just the switch and wire to fuse box. Would that be your RM76511? I have a qualified person to install it for me, I just have to order the part. Thank you in advance for your expert advise!

According to the owners manual for your 2012 Honda CR-V, if the vehicle is in tow for more than 8 hours a day then the #19 7.5 amp accessory radio and the #20 7.5 amp accessory key lock fuse must be removed. These fuses are located inside the vehicle's interior fuse panel which is positioned under the dashboard.

The Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass part # RM76511 will work to temporarily disconnect one fuse. However, since your owner's manual recommend disconnecting two fuses then I suggest using the Blue Ox Fuse ByPass Switch part # BX88273.
