Thanks lorry,
The diagram said the following: Red: to the stop signal with a 20A fuse Black: to the Battery possitive with a 25A fuse White: to the chassis ground Blue: to the trailers brake (pin 7 in the US system) Main problem is: In the 12N plug the pin assignation is as follows that differs from the american system 1.- Turn left 2.- Fog lamps 3.- Ground 4.- Turn rigth 5.- Position lights left 6.- Brake ligths 7.- Position ligths rigth American system is 1.- Ground 2.- Position ligths 3.- Turn right and brake 4.- Reverse 5.- Turn left and brake 6.- 12 V battery power 7.- Electric Brakes What shall I do? Looks that the best alternative is a direct connectios  Eduardo

Do you also have a 12s plug? If so use one of the 2 spare pins, no 5 (brown) and no 7 (black) that way you have a permanent solution! UK spec Trailer plug wiring: 'N' type Yellow :- L/H indicator Blue :- Fog light White :- Earth Green :- R/H indicator Brown :- R/H tail / side light Red :- Brake lights Black :- L/H tial / side light 'S' Type Yellow :- Reversing Light Blue :- Ignition 12V supply White:- Earth Green :- Continuous 12V supply Brown :- Spare Red :- Fridge Black :- Spare The only other option I can see is to disconnect the fog light and use this connection on the 12n plug as the fog light is the least used!

Thanks Brian,
I have the 12S, so probably I will use one of the spares. Main problem is to have a trailer that is not standard in the brake system

can't you just make up a short adaptor lead with Male one end and female the other that switches over the pins and takes your feed through for the electronic control box? Cheers

Yes I can do that but with 3 plugs the thing will look like a space connection module of the orbiting station, and the probablitoty to forget to connect the plug will be higher.
Thanks again for the recomendations Eduardo MY 2007 110 SW PUMA 2.4: Big Fog of 64' MY 1994 Jayco 1207 Folding camper: "El Tremendo" Click image to enlarge |

Not knowing how it works.
Cant you take it from the brake light feed with the brake lights? America their brake and indicators are often on in the same Mike |

The wire Eduardo is concerned about is the feed from the vehicle mounted accelerometer to the brake module on the trailer which controls the braking force applied to the trailer brakes. |

Well
Finally and due a bad installation of the 12S socket (I cannot take out the socket and only the fridge was connected  ) I use a 3rd standard american plug to wiring the brake control, the 12V for the battery and the reverse light.
By the way, the electric brake control requires at least 10AWG wiring Cheers Eduardo MY 2007 110 SW PUMA 2.4: Big Fog of 64' MY 1994 Jayco 1207 Folding camper: "El Tremendo" Click image to enlarge |
