Integrate the lighting system of a dinghy-towed vehicle with an RV using this universal 2-to-3-wire taillight converter. Surface-mount circuitry, color-coded leads, and splice-in installation provide reliable signal conversion without a direct battery connection.
Curt 56196 is designed primarily for vehicles being dinghy towed behind a motorhome or other large vehicle. It converts a 2-wire lighting signal to a 3-wire configuration so the towed vehicle's lighting circuits can operate correctly with the towing vehicle's signals.
The converter splices directly into the vehicle wiring using color-coded blunt-cut leads. Surface-mount technology helps reduce heat and electrical resistance for dependable operation, while the non-powered design requires no separate direct connection to the vehicle battery.
