Hauling a trailer with k1600b Grand America 2018

I need to know where i could buy Plug N Play Electronic Relay Isolator Package for my new K1600B Grand America?
 
Who hall a trailer with K1600B Grand America

I am wondering if some of you in MOA own a K1600B Grand America and have a motocycle trailer already functional with the can-bus system of that bike?
 
I like my bike for the confortable ride but with out my Escapade trailer in the back on our trip I miss my k1300gt!
Again I wish some of you can help me to find the proper Elecric Trailer Isolator for the K1600b Grand America?
 
I guess I would ask a dealer first.....perhaps the motorcycle trailer provider?

After that, I installed (past versions) this device many times of the "weak wired" trucks with success-

It isolates the vehicle from the trailer- electrically.

Hope this is of some help.

Omega, not certain that will work with the BMW and PWM lighting.

I am guessing the OP isn't getting much help because the knowledge base for trailering on the Grand america is pretty slim!

To the OP, give Bushtec, https://www.bushtec.com/ a call, they seem to keep up with the new models fairly well, although they will not know what you have for lighting on you trailer.
 
My Jeep Cherokee will easily haul a trailer with a k1600b inside with just the regular trailer wiring. :thumb

Yeah, pretty slim.....

Excerpt-

Advanced circuitry works in all standard applications as well as vehicles with ST and STT pulse width modulation (PWM) systems
Interprets/decodes multiplex signal inputs (i.e. Audi, BMW, Mercedes and VW)
Will not work with vehicles with low-side switch
Can be used on a 2 wire or 3 wire system

If he is stuck, may be worth a call.
