NB If the vehicule is equipped with an electrical foglight interruption relay. This one has to be tested with a 21 wattbulb.

Testing the socket

Connect the tester to the vehicle power socket. If the vehicle is fitted with a 7-pin socket, a 7-to 13-pin adapter (not supplied) must be plugged in between.

Switch on the ignition and test all functions with the aid of a 2nd person. With proper assignment of the socket the corresponding indicator lights up (when testing the direction indicator, the light will also blink).

Testing the plug

Insert a 9V battery (not included) into the tester’s battery compartment into the right direction. Connect the tester to the trailer plug (of course also suitable for lighting bars, bike carriers, boat trailers etc). With a 7-pole connector an adapter from 7-to 13-pin (not included) must be placed between the vehicle and the socket.

Press the test button on the side. If the trailer is equipped with all function (indicator, braking light and rear fog light), the corresponding indicators must light up when the test button is pressed. Please note that not all trailers/ trailer boards/bike carriers have a rear and/or a reversing light. In that case, the corresponding indicator does not light up. Use this function only when testing a plug!

Troubleshooting

If during the test no indication will light the ground line usually is interrupted. Check whether the 9V battery (not included) is fully charged. Or replace the battery. If individual indicators don’t light up check their bulbs and the cables leading to them. Clean plugs/sockets and check that the contact screws in the plug/socket are securely fastened. And make sure the wiring is connected according to the wiring diagram 7-or 13-pole.
