IF THE PARK TRAILER WERE TO BECOME DISCONNECTED DURING TOWING, THE TRAILER BRAKES WOULD NOT BE ACTIVATED INCREASING THE POTENTIAL FORA VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
OWNERS WILL BE SUPPLIED WITH A KIT AND INSTRUCTIONS TO CORRECT THE WIRING OF THIS SWITCH. IF OWNERS PREFER, THEIR DEALER CAN PERFORM THE REWIRING OF THE SWITCH FOR THEM WITHOUT CHARGE.
