12s plug wiring
 
Hi all I’m redoing the towing wiring on my Avondale Leda pentland 1989 model,
My question is they changed the 12s pin allocation in 1998, will I have to re wire the 12s plug to the new pins as my car is 2014 V60?

Cheers for any reply’s Richard.

Your V60 will be the latest 13 pin socket , Volvo do a 13 pin to 12n and 12 s socket adapter...

I have the 13 pin to 12n 12s adapter which I assume is wired up for post 1998 wiring what I need to know is if I should rewire the plug on the caravan to the post 1998 wiring or leave it as is?

You have a 1989 model and the change was in 1998 so I would try it and see , it not too difficult to rewire the plug if needed but why do it if it's not.

Putting a 13 pin plug on the caravan would do away with the adapter so make things more reliable ...
