The return (negative) wires of brakes & brake lights from trailer must be wired 
directly to
• One of the negative output connections on 

BatteryPlus35

 or 

J35

 if fitted

• To the non-battery side of a negative side shunt such as the 

BC300

• Directly to the battery negative in all other cases
Ensure the house battery has a suitable charging source such as a 

BatteryPlus35

J35

 or other charging means and that this is functioning correctly. Refer to 

manufacturer’s instructions for these products as required. A basic charging means 
such as diode from the Auxiliary to the house battery may be employed in simple 
systems.
Ensure that the LiFePO
