So, I now have a used FWC Hawk '08. I purchased the "install kit" from FWC. I have gotten through most steps. The Atwood female plug they sent me has 3 wires, Black, Yellow, and Blue. Black is connected to black going to the car battery terminal and yellow is connected to white heading to the thermal fuse breaker and then to ground/negative on the battery. I get that part.
Per step 11 on the instructions:
"Connect a 3rd wire (usually a small green wire) [came with kit] to the "Light Blue" wire on the back of the female atwood plug you are going to install inside the truck bed, and then hook this in to your rear truck tail lighting somewhere. This "small green wire" will be on hooked up to the wire that is "hot" when your truck's head lights are turned on. So, when the truck's head lights are "ON" the small LED marker lights on the outside of the camper will automatically come on."
Well, I don't see any LED marker lights on my camper. I have two rear flood lights and rear orange light that is operated by a switch on the rear. Is this step even necessary for me? Any suggestions on what to do with the blue wire coming from the female plug? Just cap it?
Thanks,
Luke
