I have changed the wiring from a 7 pin socket to a 13pin euro plug using a proper wiring loom from Land Rover and removing a generic wiring loom since doing this there is no beeping when the indicators are activated as it did on the generic loom, is this correct or have i missed something on the installation on the proper loom?

Aftermarket looms often contain a buzzer whereas the factory one does not. As long as you have the green trace light on the dash everything's OK |

As others have said, you don't get the beeping as you have the telltale on the dash. The proper way that it should work.

It all depends on how your trailer setup is set in the ccf.

I don't get the trailer light, and having read the destructions there is no reference to the little green trailer, I will have to delve deeper into this. It does every thing that is listed, and I've had no problems, I wonder if its a plug'n'play thing, and the light gets enabled at the stealers. Did you have yours programed at the stealers or is it a plug'n'play? Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!

Sorry if I made things more confusing Paul, I don't think our early cars have the green tell tale, its the later ones I believe, like philmc79 has.

Does that mean that I should stop looking for it? I was beginning to think that it lived in the sump, because I couldn't find it any were else

Hi on 2006 model. There is a green light in dash panel that comes on when you plug trailer in just stays on to let you know trailer plug is attached. Earlier car the light flashed with indicators . Cars have. Landrover wiring kit fitted |
