Double electrics on tow bar

[Morrigan_Lady]

This might be a daft question, but the new car Ive bought has got double electrics instead of single which is what Ive got now, can you still use the double electrics one to tow a trailer? And if so, which socket do you plug in to?

Thanks

you might find your electric plug from the trailer only fits on one of them, otherwise experiment and see which one makes your lights work (be sure to check them all).

This is a very normal setup for caravans.

Normally the sockets are different colours (black and white)
Black one is for towing, white is for powering a caravan internal electrics from the car battery.

She fine thanks. Has been warmed that it will take another 6 months to really beuild the strength back in the bone so no falling off allowed. She rode for the first time last night since her accident but we've banned her from jumping until the new year atleast

I tow with double electrics and use the black one!
