v70 p2 adding a 12S secondary socket.
I have a witter towbar, with a PF Jones 12N wiring harness.
I have bought a new trailer, with brakes, has a 12N +12S sockets - presumably for the reverse lights, but i also have plans for stuff on the trailer. So, i need to add a 12S socket. (or a 13pin euro) to the car. does anyone know of a supplier of a ready to plug in harness? (pf jones only do the 12N) alternatively, anyone have a copy of the pinouts for the socketin the boot of the car so i can make up a harness ? or... will i have to take a feed from the reverse lamp on the car; and will i need a relay bypass? i plan to add a dc-dc charger and an auxiliary battery: either in the car, or in the trailer. v70 mk2 2002 (52 plate) uk spec, 2.4(140) manual Last edited by bigegg7583; Feb 28th, 2020 at 19:41. |

On a 2002 v70 you should have a large socket in the rear of the car that has all the 12N + 12S wiring presented in it.
This is the wiring colours for connecting a 12S socket the pre and post refer to caravan age as the 12S pin use changed, so you will probably have to work out by testing which your trailer has. |
