Does a 2017 Fiat 500 Pop Require a Charge Line to Flat Tow  

Updated 11/03/2025 | Published 01/16/2025

Question:

I am purchasing a 2017 Fiat 500 Pop to flat tow. Does this require a battery charge line? My other vehicle requires a charge line but in my research people are saying the Fiat doesn’t need one. Thank you Jeff

Hey Jeff, I did some research and it does not look like your 2017 Fiat 500 requires a charge line. The only wiring that is required is a 12v outlet kit # RM-9332 for a supplemental braking system, a universal wiring kit # RM-152, and a stop light switch kit # RM-751455.

If you're interested in completing the setup, you'll also need a base plate # 522013-1A with the adapter # 910021-00, a tow bar # RM-522, and a braking system # RM-8700.

If you need anything else, feel free to leave a comment and I'd be happy to help!

Hey Jeff, how did things go getting your Fiat 500 ready for flat towing without the charge line? Your update could make it easier for others setting up a similar tow vehicle.
