Outside the vehicle, run the Rear

Harness (C) from the grommet

location to the Trailer Socket

following existing vehicle wiring

where possible. Secure with supplied

cable ties.

Note: Rear harness can be trimmed at

the trailer socket end if too long. Do not

trim before completing routing to trailer

socket.

Important Avoid areas around fuel or

brake lines and any moving

parts.

Before commencing work, examine

vehicle for suitable cabin entry point for

all wiring - preferably using an

existing vehicle grommet in front of

passenger or to passengers left-hand

floor space.

If no suitable vehicle grommet is found,

you must drill a 25mm hole in the floor

adjacent to the left hand sill and use the

supplied grommet. In this case, move the

seat and lift the carpet and check

above and below for any wiring or areas

to avoid. Drill 25mm hole, de-burr and

protect against rust.

Important Make a note of all Radio

settings (Confirm Security

Code if applicable).

• Find a suitable location on the

dash or gearshift surround to install

the Remote Head, ensuring clear

space to any moving parts or wiring.

Note: If your vehicle has unused switch

locations, check the REDARC website for

availability of a suitable Tow-Pro Switch

Insert.

• Route the CAT 5 cable (E) from the

Main Unit to the Remote Head

location (Refer Figure B).

• Use the supplied template to drill the

two 4mm pilot holes and then 25mm

hole.

• Insert the Remote Head into the

switch fascia (from behind) and

secure the nut using a 12mm

socket. Rotate the shaft fully

anti-clockwise and fit the knob with

“0” upwards.

• Feed the CAT 5 cable through the

hole and connect to the rear of

Remote Head (ensuring positive

lock). Press the assembly into the hole

securely. Secure the CAT 5 cable with

cable ties as required.
