Technical Features & Benefits

7- or 13-pin connection options: Choose whether you need just the standard lighting or additional features like reverse lights or permanent power supply.
Hybrid system compatibility: Wiring and components that take into account battery management and electronic control modules to avoid errors.
Weatherproof & durable components: Protected connectors, high quality insulation and materials made for durability under different environmental conditions.
Neat installation & reliable function: Proper wiring, good connector fit and routing ensures stability and long-term performance.

Towing & Load Figures

Discovery Sport PHEV versions (and similar trims) can tow up to **approx. 2,500 kg** when properly equipped. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Correct values for tow ball load, maximum electrical current for trailer lighting, and towing in electric-only mode should be confirmed via your vehicle’s spec sheet.

Installation & Technical Notes

When fitting a wiring kit, make sure to:

Check if your vehicle has features like parking sensors, reversing camera or assistance systems which may need coding or activation.
Ensure connectors are correctly fitted and sealed, and wiring is routed to avoid exposure or damage.
Use fuses that match the load required for the trailer lighting.
Confirm that the electric load from the trailer is supported by your hybrid’s electrical system, particularly if the car is used in EV-mode or with limited engine assistance.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

Which wiring kit (7- or 13-pin) should I choose?
A 7-pin kit is usually enough for standard lighting functions (tail, brake, indicators). For reverse lights, permanent power connections, or higher-current accessories, a 13-pin kit is recommended.

Is coding or activation required?
Often yes. PHEV variants typically have electronic systems that need configuring so newly added lighting signals are recognized correctly.

Can I install the wiring kit myself?
Yes, if you have some experience in vehicle electrics and the proper tools. If warning lights appear or for more complex fitting, a professional installer is advisable.

Is the wiring kit weatherproof and durable?
Absolutely. These kits include weather-sealed connectors, good insulation, and durable materials to protect against moisture, corrosion and temperature changes.

What should I do if warning messages or electrical faults appear?
Errors often occur because of loose connections, incorrect wiring, or parts that aren’t fully compatible. Correct installation, and where necessary the use of relays or modules, will usually resolve issues and restore reliable function.
