Thread: Trailer wiring on PUMA. Special loom plug available?

I could never find one, I just cut the plug off and soldered/heat shrinked/ spliced the trailer plug loom in.

(The dealership did my current 110, and to be honest I'm too scared to look).

Looked into it but just cut and soldered in the end. Plug was too difficult for little gain. No problems to date.

Alright - so if I'm going to cut the plug off and solder it in, can anyone point me to a colour wiring diagram, of which colored wire on the Defender side of things goes to which pin on the trailer plug.

I'm using a 7 pin plug, so any chance the LR colours are going to match these colours:

hey David - dont dare use those scotch locks - I hate the way they half cut through wires and have had many failures in the past. Now I always solder and wrap.

Nope - I don't like them either. Solution of last resort!

I have got all the wires bared and ready to solder, I just need to know the colour codes on the Defender side.

Found an answer to my own question, and it was even here on AULRO. Dunno why the search function couldn't find it. Got it via Google.

The colour coding of the wires going into the connector and the function of those colour codes from the International wiring code table are as under:

Table 1
1 Green/red LH indicator
2 Green/brown Reversing
3 Black Earth
4 Green/white RH indicator
5 Purple Electric trailer brakes
6 Green/purple Stop
7 Red/black Rear and number plate lamps
8 Red/yellow Fog lamp switch to fuse
9 Red/orange Fog lamp fuse to fog lamp

The colour codes of the wiring for Australian standard trailer connections are:

Table 2
1 Yellow LH turn
2 Black Reversing
3 White Earth
4 Green RH turn
5 Blue Service brakes
6 Red Stop lamps
7 Brown Rear lamps, clearance and side marker lamps

hey thanks for finding that - will be useful for me as I am going to use that plug to wire in high mount LED lights for brake, turn, rear as an aid to the horridly dull but classic LR rear lights.........

Now I am trying to get the wiring set up.

Behind a plastic flap, on the drivers side (right behind the tail lights/blinkers) there is a special connector which I am pretty sure is a direct loom connection for a trailer plug. It is square, and about 25mm x 20mm.

Is there such a thing as a loom kit that plugs into this? Would save me chopping the wires and using those horrid Scotch-lock connectors.

Have scanned eBay but nothing showed up. Go to Land Rover?

Go to a wreckers, get one of a D2, they're the same.

I used to have the part number but can't find it anymore.
