Product Description
The Roadmaster 790-25 is a 25-pack of Hy-Power diodes for towed-vehicle wiring, a bulk quantity suited to RV dealers, installers and shops that wire multiple towed vehicles. Diodes tie the towed vehicle's brake light, running light and turn signal wiring into the motorhome's lighting signals while allowing current to flow in only one direction, from the motorhome to the towed vehicle's taillights. That prevents electrical feedback that could damage either vehicle's electronics.
Each Hy-Power diode has a heavy-duty, powder-coated aluminum heat sink, and its components are housed in an epoxy-sealed aluminum case for protection from the elements. Detailed wiring instructions are included.
Some newer vehicles with multiplex or LED lighting need Smart Diodes instead of standard diodes.

Pro tipWiring and battery tips
- Protect the car’s wiring. Diodes or a separate bulb kit keep the motorhome’s lighting signal from feeding back into the towed vehicle’s electrical system.
- Watch the battery. Some vehicles drain their battery when flat towed; the owner’s manual will say whether you need a charge line or battery disconnect.
