    Hi George,
    On the brake switch atop the pedal, the plug has a green with purple trace, this is the wire you require.
    You do NOT need a diode in a D2.

    Cheers

    As I am also about to install a brake controller that info is very handy to me also. There is also a question asked about where to run the Blue wire I would also like to have some help with this. I have just purchased my Discovery 2000 TD5 which I am very happy with. It is a well kept car never seen any off road action which I hope to change. I also have just joined AULRO and am enjoting reading all the posts and am learing a bit along the way. Any help would be appreciated.

    Cheers

    Welcome to AULRO!!

    I ran the blue wire inside the cab and under the carpet down the drivers side of my D1. It took me about half an hour to pull all the trim off, run the wire, and then put it all back again. Pretty easy job.

    Dumb question, but how has everyone else run the wire to the brake light switch and to the trailer plug?

    I'm thinking inside and down to the back for the trailer plug (blue) wire and chopping the brake light wire (GP) and soldering a bullet connector on to it for the red (activation). But then I thought, whilst I'm running the blue wire to the rear, why not come back off the stop light to the red wire.

    I'm fitting a Tekonsha P3 to a D2a
    MY15 Discovery 4 SE SDV6

    Past: 97 D1 Tdi, 03 D2a Td5, 08 Kimberley Kamper, 08 Defender 110 TDCi, 99 Defender 110 300Tdi[/SIZE]
