If you need to disconnect the battery to flat tow your vehicle, you're going to want this kit. It disconnects your battery with the push of a button - much safer and faster than doing it yourself - while keeping your towing accessories charged.I had a little difficulty finding a good location for the solenoid, but finally found a spot on the radiator bulkhead. Since the photo was taken, I have added silicone boots over all of the solenoid connections.
I highly recommend this battery disconnect for the 2024 GMC Sierra Denali 1500. The electronic parking brake requires the battery to be disconnected while flat towing. GM should have made the vehicle software to not apply the brake when in Tow-mode, this makes it easy to accomplish removing battery power. I mounted the solenoid inside the passenger front quarter panel near the battery to keep the power cables as short as possible. The solenoid must be installed in the vertical position. I chose to mount the actuator button inside just above the OBD-II port under the steering column. Easy access from the driver seat but not visible or in a place that could be accidentally pushed. If you frequently flat tow the GMC/Chevy with electronic parking brakes, this is a must have!
Excellent product. Good instructions. Works perfectly after a full year.

My original switch appeared to be malfunctioning just a few weeks after installation.It would not consistently disconnect or connect the battery. This replacement switch resolved the problem.
The disconnect was just as expect. Good quality. Instructions and all needed accessories in package. I like the definite sound it makes when switching so you know its working.
The battery disconnect installation instructions were clear and the installation went well in my 2018 Chevrolet Colorado ... in spite of the kit missing a few pieces like a second star washer for connecting the two battery cables and the second piece of protective tubing. I covered the exposed energized solenoid terminals with electrical tape to prevent an potential inadvertent short in the future when working under the hood. Works as designed so far.

I towed the Colorado from Maine to Arizona last winter and the battery disconnect worked well for the entire trip. It made preparing the truck for towing and driving very easy!
I received the Roadmaster remote battery disconnect in a timely manner and had it installed in my 2016 Chevy Colorado by a local RV dealer. I used it for the first time this week and it worked like a charm. I didn't lose any of my preset radio stations or any other data that I know of. Pushing a button on the dash is a lot easier than disconnecting and reconnecting battery cables.

Still working just fine.
Installed at another shop as had a 2 month wait for trailer to install it
Very easy install. Just take your time and follow the instructions.
Quick delivery and excellent packaging. I have already watched the install video for my exact vehicle, so installation should be easy.
Thanks!
Installed the disconnect switch which was exactly what I was looking for. Very clean and works just like it claimed.
The RM-766 is a solid piece of hardware and comes with absolutely everything required for the install, right down to the "Tow" and "Drive" stickers for the switch. I use it to disconnect the battery in my 2016 Ford Edge 3.5L AWD, to help make it flat towable behind my RV. It works great and I do not have to open the hood and mess with battery cables while travelling. I like it.

There have been absolutely zero problems with this switch so far. Works like a charm.
Fairly easy install. Routing the wiring is the most time consuming part. I would've liked to have had heat shrink terminals sent instead of just crimp terminals but overall its a great product so far!
(Also, I would recommend using a brown wire to link the lighting together in the rear as opposed to the white wire that is recommended in the instructional video, to keep everything clear for anyone who may work on it in the future)
The best customer service. The really know all about rv accessories
i tried other types over the years, this does cost a little more but it works great, this is the 3 one i have install and on the next car i will only use this from roadmaster the best disconnect hands down...
Could have used a bit more length on the cables in our 2020 Tahoe. Made it work and other than that initial struggle it has worked flawlessly.
No issues, it works as expected.
This disconnect switch is heavy duty and is very simple to install.
I have a 2014 Silverado that I wanted to tow with my RV. In order to tow GM calls for the battery to be disconnected. This was the only product that I fond that would do what I wanted. It is slightly over priced in my opinion but it does the job. I have attached it to my aftermarket air box and ran the switch under the hood release. This way I can use the remote to unlock the doors when I am ready to unhook.
The battery disconnect was exactly what I needed for my new truck. Shipped quickly and arrived early.
This was very easy to install on my 2022 GMC Canyon. I installed the button on the side of the dash, between the driver door and dash side. This way it is hidden out of view. I did the installation this way to avoid any modification to the lower dash support panel.
Works great.
Works great
This product works great for our 2018 Ford Explorer. It works perfectly for our application and allows us to easily disconnect the vehicle battery when we are preparing to tow the Explorer.
I'm impressed with Cloda communication regarding my order. She responded and satisfied all of my concerns. Also my package arrive one day early and she texted me to inform me that she received notice that the package had been delivered.
Battery disconnect was bad. Waiting on replacement for 5 days now.
