Ram clearance lights

After camping last weekend, I didn't have a chance to disconnect from the truck after getting home.

I have my trailer management system turn on the marker lights at sundown every night as an "all is well" indicator (voltage, temperature, etc).

Having the truck hooked up, the rooftop lights came on as well. I guess I figured they'd be isolated, or output only from the truck side.

Me too.

I don't know the wiring specifically, but did your truck's parking lights also come on?

I'm just pulling your leg, but you have time to build a cool thing like that but you didn't have time to unplug the RV?

Central monitoring and control of various systems on the trailer, like what the seven figure class A rigs have. Control it all from a tablet or smartphone. Something I built myself as a hobby.

Sometimes I "forget", depends how many neighbors also "forgot" to turn off their nose, awning, scare or porch lights.

Do they go out later when everyone is in bed?
