Did you have to buy an extension kit to connect the switched live for the caravan fridge? Could you tell me which kit I need to connect a dedicated wiring loom to the battery for perm / switched live on a 13pin. Reg is CU19 ULA. I'm towing a caravan too.
hi great video can i just ask does the kit just plug into the wiring that already comes with the van i have a 2021 custom has the plug under the van just near the spare wheel and plugs in the passenger foot well what kit will i need thank you
Hi, thank you! Yes the kit plugs straight in, as it’s a 2021 you may need an adapter cable as the plug at the front has changed. The actual plug at the front of the van is underneath the vehicle but we run them into the side step to fit the control unit.
@@Cashclever Hi there, I’m afraid this was a job we carried out for a customer so I couldn’t say what it’s like towing with I’m afraid. Hopefully some one may be able to answer in the comments 🙂
Hey guys I'm fitting a tow bar on my custom tourneo, I have the middle section of the lume that Ford had already installed, but there is a cable missing that passes between the tbm and lume, do you know the extension name or part number. I can't find any info
@@Ab39able did you manage to sort your tow bar ? I think I have the same issue,I’ve bought a ford tow bar and plugged it in next to the spare wheel and it’s not working,I’m stumped! What am I missing plz ?
Hi Allan, no video sorry but there is 3 screws to remove and and a push fit clip towards the rear on the side step plastic. I find it easier to remove the b pillar trim also. Hope this helps.
hey I have 2013 ford custom and I wonder what I have to do after I connect the plug underneath to hitch socket. I haven't got hitch yet but I'd like to know if there is any other step than plug-in plug underneath? there is not park sensors I need hitch fir basic trailer so is the power already in the plug underneath? what do I do in that N/S step?
Very helpful thank you. Did you need to disconnect the van battery before plugging the electrics in? Cheers
Thank you. Personally I don’t disconnect the battery but it’s always advised to.
Did you get 13pin or 7 pin? My van is a 71plate.
Also a Video on coding the van for the tow bar would be good
This was a 13 pin mate. I’ll bear that in mind for next time 👍
@@godfreysautomotiveservices ok that’s great. I suppose what your plugging in determines whether it’s 13 or 7 ??
@@nickrust9358 yes that’s correct, 7 pin mainly for just trailers. 13 pin if towing caravan etc

Hi can you remember where you bought this kit from ??
@@TerryKingBIGTEL PF Jones (UK)
Do you haw any circuit diagram of the trailer toe out? I want to make my own cable for this.
Unfortunately I don’t I’m afraid. May be worth searching online for one 👍
Would have been nice to actually see the install
Do you have a vid of removing the foot well plastics, I have tried to remove mine but do not want to break the plastic? Thanks.

@@godfreysautomotiveservices Does the b pillar trim just clip in? Thanks for the quick reply ☺
@@alkemy56 yes just clips on 👍
@@godfreysautomotiveservices Thanks heaps ☺
Hi mate I've got 7 pin on mine how hard is it to swap to a 13 pin.. My caravan needs 13pin
Hi , not hard at all. You could run some extra wires from the battery and change the plug on the back. Or just install 13 pin dedicated wiring kit 👍

There’s a control unit to plug in nsf step, all connectors there ready for control unit 👍
