ABSTRACT:
A brake light attachment, for use with class II or III trailer hitches having a trailer hitch tongue receiving socket and an electrical plug connector having contacts for operating trailer brake lights and trailer turn signal lights, has an elongated generally rectangular shank with a first end dimensioned for insertion into the trailer hitch tongue receiving socket. A transverse bore formed through the shank receives a trailer hitch tongue retaining pin which serves to secure the shank in the tongue socket. A housing is mounted on a standard which is transversely attached at a second end of the shank and has a light bulb mounted in a socket. Light from the bulb is transmitted through a removable lens cover in the housing. The brake light attachment has an electrical cord having a first end connected to the bulb socket and a second end provided with an electrical plug configured for tapping the trailer brake light contacts of the trailer hitch electrical plug connector. The device is adapted for use with motor homes or other large vehicles which are not provided with a standard type of third brake light.
