You need a different Flasher Relay. I cannot tell you which one, as you have gone to a non-stock configuration. You need a relay with more resistance. The 2008 Ram doesn't have a flasher relay. The lights are controlled by the TIPM ( the computer on the underhood fuse box ). You will need to add a resistor to the led lights to bring the total resistance up to the same amount that the normal bulbs have if you want it to flash at the normal rate.
They plug in
The trailer must be disconnected and left in place. Otherwise, the repossessor can be charged for theft of the trailer.
This is because each time the battery is disconnected, the computer in the car loses power. When the new battery is hooked up, the computer system needs to be reset to stop the lights from blinking.
A vehicle hitch is a mount on the rear of a vehicle where a trailer can be connected. When a trailer is hooked to a vehicle to be towed it is said to be "hitched" to the towing vehicle.
An RV has hookups... a trailer would have standard connections.
If the trailer has a battery, and it is charged off an ignition source, it could keep the circuit live.
The gearbox/transmission doesn't know that you've hooked ona trailer - so, no. But towing the trailer will make the engine work harder, so you'll probably be using lower gears more.
It is a slang term for a Combination Vehicle meaning it is not a full truck just a partial until it is hooked to a trailer. It actually is a tractor and trailer combination.
I would have to say no. I have a tractor that is insured the only thing that is insured is just that the tractor (fire theft etc). Although You can get your trailer insured just as you can an ATV horse trailer car truck if you had a policy for it. your tractor insurance will not help with the trailer.
The brake controller has to be hooked up to a power source. The controller also has to be hooked to the brake switch or tail lights, then to the plug for the trailer.

The tow bar comes with a color coded wiring harness. The tail lights, blinkers, and brake lights are hooked up to a terminal near the trailer hitch of the towing vehicle and then the tow lights are plugged into the socket for the car lights. There are four wires. The brown is the brake lights, the green and black are blinker lights, and the white wire is the ground wire.
