Freelander Lighting for towbar

grich675823375 · May 14, 2008

Hope you can help,

I've just purchased a towbar secondhand and the lighting is all there but - no socket on the end to make life easy. Has anyone got the wiring colour codes as I intend to scotchblock connect everything. also... do i need to change the relay?

Many thanks

Just fitted me towbar, top job, from TowEquipe up north. Single electrics do indeed go to a connector behind the offside trim (white plug). No messing, cut the f**ker off and crimp through using the following colour codes:
Vehicle Wiring..........Function.......Pin No.........7 Core colour
Black (SW)..............Earth return......3................White
Green/Red(Gn/Ro).....LH Indicator......connect to audible relay
Yellow/Red(Ge/Ro)....Fog Light..........2................Blue
Green/Violet(Gn/Pu)..Brake Light........6................Red
Black/Red(Sw/Ro).....LH Tail light.......7................Black
Orange/Red(Or/Ro)...RH Tail light.......5................Brown
Green/White(Gn/Ws).RH Indicator......connect to audible relay

there are then three connections from the audible relay to make:
black to good earth (eg Black cable in vehicle loom)
two connections from relay to relevant indicator circuit, as per manufacturers details, shown on the relay packaging

connect ya trailer board, test it, then go for a beer on a job well done

Many thanks for the help, I've ended up buying a prewired connector from Sharldow Landrover for about £17, hardly seemed worth bothering with connectors. Do I need to change the relay?

Thanks again
