Title: DC power to 6 pin plug for tow vehicle
Post by: 18360 on February 26, 2020, 09:12:03 am
So when I test for power for my 6 pin plug in the back of the coach there is no dc power.
What should I do first.
Is there any kind of switch that needs turned on?

Yes that worked.
As I was looking at the wiring diagram in the manual I noticed there was no light to signify that there is power.
I didn't even check to see if it was working.
Now I have a 6 pin coach to 7 pin Jeep adapter.
Can I just plug and play or not.

If you're unsure of your adapter you should probably test it with Amazon.com: CURT 58270 Vehicle Socket RV Blade 7-Way Towing Tester 7-Pin... (https://www.amazon.com/CURT-58270-Vehicle-Socket-Trailer/dp/B001EOWQY4), otherwise, yes, it should be plug & play now.

I tested it with that tester and everything lined up to my Jeep.
So I am good.
