Question:

Do you happen to know the adaptor part number for a 2005 Monaco knight diesel pusher motorhome? I cant seem to find it. To my understanding, the motorhome has a pre-wired 6 pin connector. Thank you

Your 2005 Monaco Knight is built on a Freightline Monaco chassis which we do not carry a quick install harness for to install a brake controller like the # TK90160.

I did a little research and found that there should be a blue wire underneath the dash area that will be your brake output wire that will be run to the six way of the Monaco. You will connect this brake output wire to the brake output wire (blue wire) of your brake controller.

The red wire from the brake controller will be the stoplight switch wire and will be run to the stoplight circuit of the Monaco. You will want to find a circuit that sees voltage when the brakes are applied and none when the brakes are not.

The white wire from the controller will be run to the negative side of the vehicle battery.

The black wire will need to be run to the positive side of the vehicle battery through a 30 Amp Pollak Circuit Breaker, part # PK54530.

I attached a couple helpful links on brake controllers for you to check out also.

For 10 gauge wire we carry the part number # 10-1-1 which is sold by the foot.
