A few years ago when I had my Blue Ox base plate installed on my Terrain, the guy used a 4-way flat. It's a pain in the butt (keeps falling off its mount). I'm going to take it back and have him properly install a round plug and better secured to the base plate.
My question, what plug is used on the Phoenix Cruiser? 7 way round? I try to reserve questions to Headquarters for more serious matters.
Also, will Phoenix USA hook-up my toad lights during the PDI?
Cheers... :)(:

My coach (2017) has a 7 way round.

Do you mean install them or just plug in the cable to test? I doubt they would want to do the install but you would have to ask them. If all you want is to plug them in and test I don't see why not. They always seem to be eager to make sure everything works. And that is a legitimate test to see if their plug works with your toad. Check turn signals, lights and brake lights.

Thanks, again, JATRAX. I will now have my local guy install a 7 way round on the front of my toad. I can then have him make me the necessary "wire" to run from the PC to my Terrain. Unless I am missing something, that should be all I need. Then, yes, have Phoenix USA make sure all is good.
Going back many years to my U-Haul days, I assume the wiring is universal on all mfg's. This is another area where my experience is antiquated, being only familiar with 4 way flats.

Barry I'm no help there. I would assume so otherwise what's the point of having a standard but I really do not know.
I had my toad wired at the Roadmaster plant which is just across the river from me. They installed a 6 pin round female plug on the Jeep and then supplied a cable with a 7 way round plug to fit into the coach. But they required me to bring both the toad and the coach to their shop so I assume the cable they supplied has the wiring to make that work.
When you take your toad in I guess tell them you need a cable from whatever they install to match a 7 way on the coach.
