Hi All
I want to cut off the towbar plug and solder my new towbar cable direct.
can anyone help with the wiring colours?
cheers Dave

This is the diagram for a LHD - it may help

Thanks for that, i already had a copy of that it's just a bit difficult to understand!!!!
I was hoping for " this colour goes to this colour" guide lol!!

Its pretty simple to do.

Get yourself a new 13pin euro socket, all the connections are numbered inside the socket, & the wiring diagram also has a number next to each coloured cable/wire. No need for any soldering!

Thanks Geordie boy but not sure I understand??
How do I join the wires? Does it mean I don,t have to cut off the car plug?
I only need it for my little trailer which has a 7 pin socket

Wire it as per 13 pin euro socket and then use a removable 13 to 7 pin socket adaptor - best of both worlds then Jules

I converted my LR genuine twin socket loom to 13 pin using a couple of chocolate blocks sited below the left boot tray floor.

But the 13 pin is part of the MOT and must have all pin working but the 7 pin is not so if he only has 7 pin now why add the extra wiring and relays if he does not need them.

Does this help?

Thanks Bibendum but I already have the wiring for the towbar socket. What I need is the wiring colours for the plug on the car that the socket connects in to.

This is my socket in the car.Does anyone have any idea as to which colour goes to which on the towbar cable?
Cheers Dave
