3. FIttING INStRuCtIONS
3.1. Position the mounting plate between the tow ball and the vehicle towing bracket.
3.2. Locate a convenient connection point in the vehicle’s wiring harness near one of the rear light clusters.
3.3. If there is no access for the cable available, drill a suitably sized hole in the bodywork near the tow ball. Remove any sharp edges and fit
a suitably sized grommet (or use sealant).
3.4. Feed the 7 core cable through this hole and strip off the outer cover as necessary and connect the wires into the wiring harness as
required using the following codes.
12N Socket 7 Core Cable Function
Pin 1 Yellow Left Hand Direction Indicator
Pin 2 Blue Rear Fog Lamp
Pin 3 White Earth Return
Pin 4 Green Right Hand Direction Indicator
Pin 5 Brown Right Hand tail and Number Plate Lamps
Pin 6 Red Brake Lamp
Pin 7 Black Left Hand tail and Number Plate Lamps
3.5. When completed, test all vehicle and trailer lamps for correct operation, before towing a trailer on the road.
WARNING: Number plate lamps on the trailer should be wired to avoid a common connection between Pins 5 and 7 of the 12N Socket.
NOtE: It is a legal requirement that a warning should be given if a bulb fails in the direction indicators on the trailer. It is therefore
recommended that a 7 way bypass relay is used where the direct connection of towing electrics may affect bulb failure monitoring,
multiplex wiring or other electronic systems.
