Diode Dynamics C1R Hitch Light Flickering

[dugies25]

I installed the C1R a few weeks back and have noticed the light flickers when my Trailhunter is idling. Diode Dynamics has an updated harness that lets you tap into the brake light power supply to give the hitch light contestant power. Just curious if anyone has done this? What wire do I tap in to? First time doing something like this, trying not to screw it up. DD has a 2-min video, but they gloss over this part.

I was under the impression that the kits were plug and play. You shouldn't need to tap into any individual conductors. Not sure if it connects to the trailer wiring or behind the tail lights, but you should just be removing a connector(s) and plugging in their t-tap(s.)

It is plug and play, but some people are getting this flickering, so they included a connection to get constant power…it’s optional, but the flickering is annoying so I was going to try to do it.
