Howzit Dogs,
I want to change my trailer lights to LED, however, the lower resistance on the LED lights, causes my cars sensors not to receive proper feedback, thus "thinking" that the lights are not working. I know Ford make a LED towing harness that fits between the trailer and car to cater for this (Part no AB3915436AD). Pricing is not bad at R403, but according to my closest Ford dealer there are none in the country and it will take at least 21 working days to get here.
There are also Load-Resistor kits available but these seem to be quite pricey. From what I've read you need one per light @R150 each x 6, plus you need to find a place on the trailer to position them.
Does anyone have a quick fix (and simple) solution?
