Plug the “Trunk” Connector (23) into the “Trailer” Connector (18).
WARNING! If the Wire Splices (21) are used improperly and damage
the vehicle’s wiring, the vehicles rear lights may fail, resulting in a trafc
hazard. Have an assistant operate the vehicle’s lights while you carefully
check that the vehicle lights and the towing lights all work properly after
installation. If any function of the vehicle or towing lights does not work, do
not drive the vehicle. Carefully inspect the splice connection and the circuit that
failed and repair the problem and retest before use.
Disconnect the “Trailer” Connector (18) if the light kit is not going to be used yet.
SET UP
To help avoid scratches, clean the mounting locations and clean the protective
labels under the lights.
Set the lights on the back of the vehicle being towed so that the RED side of
each light faces backwards. Set the light that has a green wire on the right side
and the light that does not have a green wire on the left side.
Make sure all wires are secured with enough slack to prevent binding when turn-
ing, but controlled enough to prevent roadway or moving part contact.
Plug the “Trunk” Connector into the “Trailer” Connector.
WARNING! Have an assistant operate the vehicle’s lights while you
carefully check that the vehicle lights and the towing lights all work prop-
erly.
Both tow lights should illuminate when the towing vehicle’s running lights are
switched on.
The tow lights should both light brightly as you apply the brake.
The tow light with a green wire should blink brightly with the right turn signal.
The tow light without a green wire should blink brightly with the left turn signal.
If ANY function of the vehicle lights or towing lights does not work, do not
drive the towing vehicle until all lights are repaired and retested success-
fully.
The tow light kit is now ready for use. It will automatically illuminate when turn
and brake signals in the towing vehicle are used.
WARNING! Check light position and function regularly when towing,
especially on rough or uneven surfaces. The magnets cannot hold the lights
to the vehicle in extreme circumstances.
After towing, disconnect “Trailer” Connector, remove tow lights from towed ve-
hicle, clean with a moist cloth, and store in dry location out of reach of children.
