The weight label on your hitch receiver provides
the maximum trailer weight rating and the maxi-
mum tongue weight rating. It is important that
these ratings not be exceeded.
Consult with your dealer or towing
equipment/trailer supplier to determine the cor-
rect type of hitch head assembly, hitch ball and
other tow equipment you should use for towing
and leveling the load you intend to pull.
If you intend to tow, take advantage of reading
and studying literature that is available from
vehicle manufactures, the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration, equipment manu-
facturers, trade associations, and
publications/books about how to tow.
TOWED VEHICLE WIRING
Your motor home is equipped with an electrical
connector, from here on referred to as a hitch
plug, which provides an electrical connection
for your towed vehicle. The hitch plug is located
at the rear of the motor home near the hitch
receiver. It is a 7 position connector wired as
follows:
Please note this connector provides separate
positions for the two turn signals and brake
lights. This is necessary for the towed vehicles
that have separate amber turn signals in addition
to the red brake lights.
Some towed vehicles will not have amber turn
signals separate from the brake lights. They will
instead use the same lamp to indicate braking as
well as turn signal. Towed vehicles with this
type of lighting will not be able to utilize the
standard hitch plug on your motor home.
For towed vehicles with this type of lighting you
will need to replace your hitch plug. A replace-
ment hitch plug wiring harness is available
through Fleetwood’s American Coach Service.
This harness replaces your current hitch plug
and is easily installed in minutes.
