Led trailer lights
 

I have purchased euro 13 pin to large round 7 pin adaptor to be able to tow boat,van and trailer the boAt has led tail lights which flicker when hooked up to the car.
Can any one advise if the buc needs to be coded to recognise tow vehicle?

Problem solved
 

Dealer wanted over $400.00 for a bmw adaptor
I spent $90.00 on some new 12v incandescent lights and changed them over problem solved 😎

The 13 pin confued me, theyn saw yoru location....


The BMW system likes to see a current draw into the incandescent bulbs- the LEDs dont draw enough and the BMW circuitry cannot handle it.


I didnt know there actually is a "BMW Made" module tho....here's one made down there, but it isnt "BMW"

Glad you got it sorted....

Thanks ard the bmw branded unit is $448 here and the bmw branded 13 pin-7 pin adaptor is $138 l picked up an after market one for $25 out of the UK delivered. Works no dramas it certainly pays to do your homework.
