T5 trailer plug hrlp

[ajvx01]

Hi guys,

I FINALLY got around to putting a tow ball on the van (pig of a job, who ever invented the plastic push lugs owes me an hour of my life back!) and now i just need to organise a plug. I was told its not that simple on these vans, is that true? All I need is brake lights and indicators for when I pick up scaffolds etc on trailer. The van has zero fancy features like reversing sensors etc so is there a loom point I can splice into or a factory plug hidden I am unaware of?

Any help would be really appreciated.

Pre-'10 facelift, you can just splice into the tail light wiring.

Perfect!! Never been happier to have the pre facelift

Can anyone link me to a diagram of loom and recommend a splicing location?

Yep, clearly a single use item if there ever was one.. Once I got a method sorted I could remove them all with no damage quite easily but the learning curve was quite aggravating!

Just probe the back of the light connector with a testlight to get the wires you need.

You'll need to run a wire over to the right-hand side for the right side blinker.

If I remember right you can tap into the drivers side indicator harness at the very top where the harness comes out of the rear pillar on the drivers side .
