G'day All,

The truck I bought had the original 7-pin circular hookup cut out and the wires hardwire spliced into the 5 wire standard Narva plug. My trailer wiring is all good and works on other vehicles and from a direct battery feed, but coming through the disco it's a bit dysfunctional. Turn signals, running lights, and brakes all work fine either alone or in combination with 1 other set of lights, but when all three engaged the brakes won't light up on trailer. I don't think it's a ground issue as I have the same issue when running an alternate ground wire direct from trailer plug to battery. Testing voltage with a multimeter at the trailer plug, the wire splicing, and at the brake pedal switch shows the brake line at about a 1-1.5 volts lower than the other lights - is this the problem? Also, would you need to wire BOTH the Left Hand tail lights AND the Right Hand tail lights into the trailer plug (which only has a slot for Tail Lights)?

IF anyone has had luck with hardwiring their land rover's trailer wires direct to the trailer plug, please let us know if there are any tricks I need to be aware of!

Many thanks
