Title: tow bar light on dash ?????
Post by: nick v6 on 23 June 2009, 19:42:33

not sure if in the right section
to many to chose from

the little light on the dash board in the shape of a tow bar
should that be lit when a trailer light board is attached or not
or is it just there for show :D

It is to show that the indicator on the trailer or what you have pluged in is working. so to say as a reminder (dont forget you have a trailer)

Either the beeper of light are legal. To get the light to work you need a different flasher unit (normally) and, probably, to put a bulb in :y :y

after the accident the garage fitted a genuine vauxhall tow bar and electrics
they didnt just scotch lock the wiring either
they used the proper connector that sits in the boot
