2021 Sea to Sky Trailer Harness
Installing a Trailer Hitch and Control Module (Hopkins 310-0041-559) on a Sea to Sky. The "Y" harness that connects to each taillight harness also has a single red plug in the harness. There is nothing in the install instructions about this wire. I'm guessing it's wanting power - because I'm getting nothing at the trailer plug - but haven't plugged in this mystery red wire.
Anyone installed this module on the new RT? Did you have to run a power line from the battery to the harness?

Your harness has a spade connector. Standing at the back looking ahead the bikes left side harness has a female spade connector taped to that harness . You really have to look for it and there’s no mention in the crappy instructions from BRP .

That's the red wire I was trying to figure out. Okay - this is helpful. And yeah, the crappy instructions from BRP had zero mention whatsoever. I'm guessing that's a power feed from the front that may run through a "trailer" specific fuse based on how the old models were wired.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Thanks again guys! That was definitely the missing piece. And it was indeed buried under tape. I also find it interesting the BRP setup doesn't turn on the trailer lights without the bike running. I've only done after market harnesses before - and they were all wired to be on with the key like the bike running lights. Just found it interesting - have to start the bike to check the lights.
