    Brink / Thule Towbar fitment, missing ball

    Door warning lights retro fit not working

    Still on joy with the front, but got the rears working. Needless to say I need to get the fronts figured before I cut the rears in as that would look a bit silly Going out now to try with a different earth point

    Door warning lights retro fit not working

    Have only focused on the front passenger so far as had the door card off for replacing the window switch. I have check the lights / loom on a 12v source so know they are good. Some post about suggest it can take several hours for the door cotroller to reconfigure
