What to Do w/ the Vacuum Line When Installing the Roadmaster InvisiBrake
Updated 08/06/2024 | Published 08/04/2024
Question:
I have a Demco Invibrake flat tow system part RM-8700 that I took out of my Jeep Wrangler and installed in my 2024 Ford Maverick. My question is: since the Maverick has electric brakes and does not need the vacuum line tapped into from the Demco Invibrake what do you do with the port on the back of the Demco Invibrake? Just plug it or leave it as is open?

Expert Reply:
I took a look at the instructions for the Roadmaster InvisiBrake Flat Tow Brake System item # RM-8700. It states to "Leave the vacuum port as is and proceed to the next section"
I attached the installation instructions below. The section addressing the vacuum line is on page 11.
