breakaway switch switch on toad
I just got my '04 Trailblazer setup for towing today,well a couple of days actually,with Roadmaster base plates and a used U.S. Gears installed.They did a really good job and ,of course,found several problems with both the toad and the MH.When they pulled the bumper,they found that it had been in an accident and evidently replaced the bumper,left front fender,grill and headlite with new parts and did as little other work as possible so they had to tweek the frame ends and the steel bumper had to be reshaped a bit.. Oh well...
Anyway,when I went to pick it up,they showed me where they had put a toggle switch in line between the break away switch and the actuator so that when I unhook the toad,I just open the hood and throw the switch and driveaway and don't have to worry about what happens if the breakaway actuates inadvertently.. When I'm ready to tow,I just throw the switch and the circuit is completed.. I thought that was pretty neat.
