WHEN DO I NEED A TAILLIGHT CONVERTER?

   
Most trailers operate on a 2 wire system when the brake lights and turn signals operate on the same wire.
 When the towing vehicle has separate wires for brake lights and turn signals, a taillight converter is needed   
 

HOW TO DETERMINE THE RIGHT MODULITE FOR YOU.
The converter you choose depends on the type of trailer you'll be towing and the vehicle you'll be towing it with (the electrical systems on some vehicles are designed to handle the power needs of the vehicle only). Be sure to review your owner's manual for their recommendations.

  • 2 wire systems have stop and turn on the same circuit
  • 3 wire systems have brake & turn lights on separate circuits.
