Hi Folks,
I will be towing my 2019 Ranger behind my Diesel Pusher Motor Home. I need, by law, a supplemental braking system, which I have...a Roadmaster Even Brake. It requires me to plug the unit into the dash power point. The power point is dead until I put the Ranger into accessory mode with the Lariat key fob/push button. Curious is once activated, even after the Ranger accessory mode is turned off, the power point stays live. So my question is: Will it stay live while the Supplemental brake is plugged in or will it turn off at some point in time....the owners manual (of which I am appalled at the errors) is about as clear as mud on this. I have tried my Ford Engineering contacts but have had no one that can answer this question.
Anybody have a clue???
Best,
