you just need a +12v switched wire going to the relay to active the SW6DEL. Here is a link to the wiring diagram. I have the needed wire shown in red on the diagram. To turn on the gas for the SWDEL, another +12v switched wire is needed and is shown in the diagram. The only other wire is one going to the gas light and the other side of the light is connected to -12V (negative return or ground).

Since you don't have an Escape trailer, it would help to know what control panel you are using to control the SWDEL. The Escape uses the KIB M1086 panel.
