I am going to flat tow my 2003 Pilot. I am wondering if anyone has done this and how they tap into the wiring to control brake lights while the pilot is being towed?
Is there a kit that anyone has found to use?
Thanks |

| Can you even do this without damaging the transmission and VTM-4? |

| The manual tells how to flat tow. So I would assume no problem. I have a v-6 AWd |

I'm too lazy to walk 20 feet and look at the manual, but I was always under the impression that you were forbidden to tow an automatic for more than 50 miles as it would damage it.
If the manual says otherwise, great. |

Up to 2004 or 2005, towing was allowed as long as the rules were followed. Never done it myself, but the 2004 I bought had been towed.
I don't remember how exactly it was wired, but do remember cursing a lot as I was cutting it all out. As for the back lights, the seemed to be spliced into using a diode. A lot of the parts I removed looked a lot like this kit I found online:

Check the electrical wiring section. |
