INTERIOR LIGHT SETTINGS

The RT7 is fitted with interior LED strip lighting, and exterior LED rear loading lamps. These are powered either by the on board trailer battery, or power can taken from the lighting circuit of the tow vehicle.

The lights are controlled by a switch on the left hand forward door post on the main side door of the trailer.

This switch has 3 positions:

‘0’ this turns interior and loading lights OFF
‘I’ this takes power from the tow vehicle lighting circuit. A tow vehicle must be attached*, and the sidelights of this vehicle switched on (not daytime running lights) this function will allow power to the lights, regardless of the trailer Master Switch status.
‘II’ this takes power from the trailer on-board battery. The trailer Master Switch on the Electrical Control Hub must be in the ON position for the interior lights to receive power.

*Some modern vehicles see an imbalance of current draw when the trailer interior lights are on and powered from the tow vehicle. This can cause the vehicle to shut down the towing module resulting in all lighting functions being lost, or irregular behaviour of the trailer lights. in this situation, ensure to only run the trailer in the OFF (0) or on-board trailer power (II) setting.
