was hoping simeone with an a6 avant 2014/2018 could help with my factory tow bar install i have all fitted but cant get led on release lever working. im hoping someone on here has elsawin and could kindly check trailer ecu pins for warning lamp release led in boot compartment k266/k277 please and post a pic up for me many thanks
 
Is that on the manual release knob?

On C6, you had to code the type fitted aswell as wiring for this to display correctly.
 
if you could tell me the pins for led lamp and hitch switch on bar i would very much appreciate it the colours i see is yellow/white/orange! (lamp) in rear boot compartment
 
You're likely to need it coding elsewhere (quality independent or dealer as last resort). The svs code needs inputting and EVERYTHING works perfectly. Been there, done that etc. Check you got the svs code with the kit, if not google it. Something like 50500 if I remember correctly?
