2025 Maverick Hybrid Dinghy Harness

[fastgascar]

I cannot seem to find a dinghy tow harness for my 2025 Maverick. For those with the Hybrid Maverick what did you use to make your rear lights run off of the charge cord coming from the RV/Motorhome? Any pics would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like the only option is to cut the OEM harness and use a universal dinghy kit.

I just purchased the Roadmaster Baseplate, I am considering the night hawk tow bar to upgrade my current blue ox tow bar, really just for the lights so I am still on the fence about that one, I use the RVI Brake 3 for the aux brake as well as there tire monitoring system and battery charger. My only issue is cutting the OE harness for the tailight, so I am currently ISO the trailer wiring harness for the 2025 Mav, the 2022-2024 Mav has a different plug. I am going to try the one for a 2022-2024 Ford Bronco. Did you install all the parts on your Mav yourself?

I’m very happy with the RoadMaster gear it pulled great and no issues- I had a local company do the install they have a very good reputation and a great family owned business

The Nighthawk is a great tow bar I initially purchased it to replace my BlueOx Tow Bar which I still use on my 2004 Jeep Wrangle TJ but decided to go with RoadMaster on the 2025 Mav - I really do like the LED light bars on the Nighthawk and the integrated cord and safety chains it’s definitely an upgrade

Does anyone know if the taillights need a separate ground circuit to each one, coming from the tow car

Toad harness is done, no need to butcher a factory harness, to splice in diodes

is that toad harness the one from Roadmaster?

No sir that was a custom one I made. I did not want to cut the OE connectors. It’s a Hopkins universal kit with Ford OE connectors

I used a set of wireless magnetic stick on lights. I added a 12 volt line from the motorhome to the 12 volt DC battery to keep it charged up. The 12 volt system is required to keep the truck in the four down tow mode.

Love this set up and want to do the same! Can you share the PN’s for those connectors?
