Land Rover super awesome round trailer plug - warning

[Island_Moose]

Discovered why the lights on my trailer weren't working. The "sealed" factory round trailer plug/port was filled with a cup of water...and likely has been since 2008 when it was made.

The trailer plug is a short loom that connects into the main system near the RH taillights.

I pulled it out and wired in a new plug (rectangular). Had to weld up a new bracket and convert the colour codes, which don't match AUS/NZ wiring at all.

Are the colour codes Lucas? If so then it’s easy as they are all the same for EVERY single vehicle they were used on. You cannot say that with Bosch on Holden, ford, Toyota etc.
