Very good idea. Case in point, I hooked up and checked the Montana lights and everything worked perfect. I tossed a few blocks into the tv and began our journey. My SIL who was following hollered on the radio and asked my how I was able to go down those hills without using my brakes. I replied I have it in second gear, then realized I WAS using my brakes too. I had not noticed my new P3 was still showing the green indicator telling me I was disconnected. Fortunately the hills were not hazardous. I moved that P3 up to a more noticeable position on the dash when I got home and have made a mental note to check connections the LAST thing before moving. And check the brake monitor too. Lights are another good idea. Thanks Bill for your idea.
Now with my new TST tire monitor I have another readout to check which is a good safety check to inspect beofer moving.
