Connecting to the towed battery:
2) In your towed vehicle, remove the nut on the positive battery terminal
and place the red ring terminal over the bolt and then retighten the nut
back onto the bolt. Remove the nut on the negative battery terminal,
place the blue ring terminal over the bolt, and retighten the nut back on
to the bolt.
Mounting Control Box:
1) Find a location near the towed vehicles battery to
mount the box. This location should allow you to
easily route the duplex wire to the vehicle battery
terminals. Use 2 wire ties to hold the box in place.
You can mount the box along the inner fender or
elsewhere, using the provided mounting screws

Connecting TBC to towed umbilical connector:
3) Locate the multi-pin connector near the front of
your vehicle. Route the TBC single wire labeled
“Motorhome,” safely through the engine compartment
or fender to the front of the vehicle where this
connector is located.
4) Identify the positive 12VDC terminal in the multi-pin
connector where the wires come into the towed vehicle.
Strip the end of the single wire from the TBC and insert the wire into
the multi-pin connector. Securely tighten. You may shorten the wire
then attach it to your connector. You will need to ensure there is a
constant 12VDC supply to this connector routed from your motorhome
through your umbilical cord!
5) Inspect for any loose or dangling wire, and secure as necessary with
the wire ties provided.

NOTES:
You will need to ensure that there is a constant 12V
supply to the multi-pin connector routed from your
motorhome through your umbilical cord. You will also
need to ensure that there is a proper ground from the
back of the multi-pin connector on your towed vehicle
to the towed chassis. (Fig. 3)
The LED will flash when all connections are correct and if there is a
charge coming from your motorhome, this may mean starting the
engine of the motorhome. If it is not flashing, check all terminal
connections, the fuse, or the 12 Volt supply from your motorhome.
Vehicles with rear mounted batteries, consult your owner’s manual to
find the jump start lug, and appropriate ground source for completing
step 4.
