Question:
I am setting up a 2025 Ford Maverick hybrid awd for flat towing. I have ordered much of what is needed though you. Can you please tell me if I need a brake light switch, or brake light relay, or something else to keep my tail lights operating correctly when brakes are applied when the turn signal is on? My brake unit is a Blue Ox Patriot 3. I will be installing the Roadmaster brake light diode kit. Please let me know if any other information is needed.

Hey Richard welcome back! I took a look at your order history and you're all set. The Blue Ox Patriot Portable Flat Tow Brake System item # BLU37TR does not require a brake light switch or a brake light relay when used on your 2025 Maverick.
