24v Sankey towing with D3

Long story, but can I tow a 24v trailer with the D3 - the trailer has had a normal 7pin plug added to it - but I'm sure it won't work?

I have all of the equipment for the NATO hitch, so that won't be an issue

Sorry for my lack of knowledge here Rolling Eyes

Of course the other option, is to turn-up with a light board - but would still like to better understand the issues Thumbs Up

Cheers

Check if the bulbs have been changed to 12v items. Thumbs Up

If not, they'll be dim....

No problem. As ^^^ change of bulbs is all that is involved. Sell the 24v plate on eBay and buy a 12v one if you are bothered.

More likely to get a problem from the NATO wiring plug being replaced with a 7-pin.

Perfect, have stacks of 12v bulbs, so will take with me and perhaps a board as well to be on the safe side.......Now we have to see if the plan come together Thumbs Up

Definately take the trailer board - D3s can throw hissy fits of they take a dislike to trailer wiring.
