    Trailer light on dash.

    Hi all, I have the trailer light flashing when I put the indicators on in my 02 D2. Any idea what it indicates as I dont tow a trailer very often. Cheers Brett

    Do you have a bull bar? The additional indicator lights in the bar will give extra load so the system thinks it’s got a trailer attached.

    cheers

    Replace the bull bar indicators with LEDs and the trailer flash will stop.

    My trailer lights flash all the time since i fitted the bullbar and it doesnt bother me one iota.
    I don't really need a special light to tell me i am towing something anyway

    I like the idea that if I tow a trailer and one of the indicators is gone, the lack of a the trailer flash is useful

    D2s do not have a flasher can. The ECU controls the flashers.
