Question:
Trying to source a tail light wiring schematic for use of diodes in isolating the tail light, blinker and brake lights on a 2016 escalade. Not dure if a 4 diode system or 6 diode system will be necessary. It appears with running lights on, there are 2 Two hot wires, not sure if one is the parking/tail light and the other the LED control module in tail light? Any help so I can see what is required before ordering would be appreciated.

For your 2016 Cadillac Escalade you will be good to use a 4 diode kit like the Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-152-98146-7. The way that the wiring on your Escalade is set-up isn't necessarily as big of a deal because the battery on your Escalade will be disconnected and the lights will be receiving their power from the motorhome.
I have included the installation instructions so you can check our how the installation process takes place.
You can use the Roadmaster Automatic Battery Disconnect with Switch # RM-766 to make disconnecting the battery as easy as flipping a switch.
