Brake and Lighits control to the trailer... Thinking out loud...

I''ve made up a new wire loom (6 wires). It will be installed, and it will run from the front of the coach to the rear of the coach. The brake controller "brake wire" (utilizes wire #1 in the new loom) from the brake controller unit, that is mounted in the drivers area, to the rear of the coach. Loom wires 2, 3, 4 (L, LT, RT) will carry their signal to the rear of the coach as well. At the rear of the coach, loom wires 1, 2, 3, 4 will be wired to a "4 wire to 3 wire" converter. The output side of the converter will be wired to the relay(s) signal (on) pole for the trailer wiring. The relay(s) output pole provide Brake, L, LT, RT.to the 7 pin trailer receptacal. Loom wires 5 & 6 are for "if needed" future wiring. I may use one for trailer back up lights.

How does this SOUND ???

Dick, I found this link for a signal-stat controller. the front directional and rear directional are wired independent. front blinkers dont carry thestop signal .thestop signal makes its way into the appliance. you would need one more wire to the rear to carry the brake only signal. unless you have a wire for a brake controller that is not used
