Wiring Kits for Range Rover V PHEV (L460)

Our wiring kits for the Range Rover V PHEV (model L460) are designed especially for the plug-in hybrid variants of this full-size luxury SUV. They ensure reliable connection between the trailer hitch and vehicle lighting system so that tail, brake, and indicator lights, as well as optional lighting or power features, work correctly — even under towing load and hybrid/electrical conditions.

Technical Features & Benefits

7- or 13-pin connection options: Suitable for both basic light functions and extended features such as reverse lights or constant live power.
Hybrid-compatible components: Connectors, wiring, and insulation designed to handle battery systems, electric motor assistance, and the control electronics of the PHEV variant.
Durable & weather-proof construction: Sealed contacts, quality insulation and materials resistant to moisture, corrosion, and environmental stress.
Compatibility with comfort & assistance features: Sensors, cameras, and control units are taken into account to ensure new light and power signals are recognised and do not trigger warning lights.

Towing & Capacity Data

According to manufacturer and industry-information, the Range Rover V PHEV (e.g. P440e / P460e / P510e trims) has a maximum braked towing capacity of approximately **2,500 kg** (≈ **5,511 lbs**), when properly equipped. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

This figure depends on having the correct towing equipment, tow-pack, approved hitch, and vehicle configuration. Trim, battery, wheelbase, and regional approval may affect actual limits. Always check your vehicle registration documents. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

Installation & Technical Notes

Check whether your vehicle has additional features like reverse camera, parking sensors, or driver assistance systems – some may need activation or coding before installation.
Ensure connectors are properly mounted, wiring routed safely and protected from damage, heat or moisture.
Use correct fuse sizes and confirm that the vehicle’s electrical system supports the load from trailer lights and any additional accessories.
Select a wiring kit that is mechanically and electrically able to handle the towing demands, especially in hybrid operation or when electric power is part of the propulsion.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

Which wiring kit (7- or 13-pin) should I choose?
A 7-pin kit usually covers basic lighting (tail, brake and indicator). For reverse lights, constant power or extra accessories, a 13-pin version is recommended.

Is coding or activation needed?
Yes — depending on the trim, year and installed electronics. PHEV models often have control units that must recognise newly added signals, so activation or coding may be required.

Can I install the wiring kit myself?
Yes — with proper tools and some understanding of vehicle electronics. But for high trim levels or if warning lights appear, professional installation is advised.

Is the wiring kit weatherproof and durable?
Yes — these kits use sealed connectors, robust insulation and resistant materials to protect against moisture, corrosion and environmental stresses.

What should I do if warning messages or electrical faults appear?
Often caused by loose connectors, incorrect wiring or incompatible parts. Proper installation, correct specification and, if needed, auxiliary modules or relays usually resolve these issues and ensure safe, reliable operation.
