Thanks for all the replies. The owners manual is confusing, key in acc, negative battery cable off, but the Brake Buddy needs power to brake assist and I'm assuming the Jeep needs power for the turn signals, which is supplied by the cord that got mangled on our trip north. Sooooo, I guess, after thinking about this and the messages here I need the key on as long as I'm using the BB and actually want some blinkers and brake lights.
Thanks again all,

Wranglers haven't had a steering wheel lock since 2008.
You should have an always hot 12V receptacle in the center console. Agree. I have towed a 2014 the same way for 3 years.
Once connected to your coach the towed lights do not require any power from the Jeep.
So bottom line, after you're all hooked up and read to tow, turn the ignition to the OFF position, remove the key and put it in your pocket. I towed a 2011 Wranger for three years in this manner.
