Expert Answers about Land Rover

• Rhino Rack Vortex Whistle Roof Rack Solution
• The loud whistle you described normally means that the lower crossbar channel cover isn't in use. If you lost yours we have the part # RRM626 for a replacement that can be cut down to the correct length. If you have the strip still install it to cover up as much of the lower channel as possible and the whistle will go away.

• Troubleshooting No Brake Output Power on 2010 Range Rover with Prodigy P2 Brake Controller
• If you aren't getting any power at the brake output pin on your Range Rover's 7-Way when applying the manual override on the Prodigy P2 # 90885 then there is likely a bad wiring connection or an issue with the controller itself. Keep in mind that since this is a proportional controller it is normal not to get much if any power at the brake output pin when stepping on the brake pedal with the vehicle parked. You should get full power though with the manual override as long as you have the...

• LED Lights Flash on Trailer Towed by a 2008 Land Rover LR3 Using Adapter # C57003
• The 7-Way to 7-Way adapter, # C57003, is designed to work on German vehicles like the VWs, Audis, and so on to deal with a bulb-out sensor issue present on those vehicles. It may not work the same for other applications like on your Land Rover. If the LED lights on the trailer are not providing enough power draw on the system you can try installing some load resistors on each of the lighting circuits (right turn/brake lights, left turn/brake lights) behind the trailer connector. You would...

• P3 Brake Control Switches from Trailer Connected to No Trailer Connected on 2004 Land Rover
• If an item gets returned it will go back to the manufacturer. We do sometimes have to go out to the warehouse and open up stuff to verify contents or answer a customer question. Since the P3 brake controller is going back and forth telling you a trailer is connected/not connected that indicates a probable short somewhere. The most likely cause is a dirty or corroded trailer connector on the vehicle (we can eliminate the issue being a trailer since you aren't towing a trailer when this...

• Finding Brake Controller Connection In 2010 Range Rover Sport With Factory 7-Way
• For your 2010 Land Rover Range Rover Sport, to connect your Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195, the connection point for the brake controller wiring harness # 3035-P should be under the dash next to the brake switch to the left of the steering column. The connection in your picture is not the correct harness connection. It could also be beneath the dash near the center console or even behind the glove box on the passenger side. If you are unable to find the connection, as you well may with...

• Range Rover Headlights Cause Prodigy RF Brake Controller to Activate Trailer Brakes
• It sounds like the brake light circuits on the vehicle side trailer connector get power when the headlights are on, or it could also be a short due to corrosion or wiring in the trailer connector. First make sure the trailer connector is clean and free of corrosion inside and out. To test the connector to see if there is power on the brake light circuits when the head lights are on you will need a circuit tester such as # PTW2993. Test the pins in the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions...

• Troubleshooting LED Lighting on Trailer Not Working Behind a 2006 Land Rover LR3
• Unfortunately, it sounds like there may be an issue with either the wiring or the control module on your 2006 Land Rover LR3. As you have tried the 7-Way to 4-Way/5-Way Trailer Adapter for Vehicles with Lamp-Out Sensors Towing Trailers with LEDs # C35FR as well as adding resistors with both failures to operate the lights. It only stands to reason the vehicle has something going on with it that it is not recognizing you have a trailer connected.

• 7-Way to 4-Pole Adapter Not Functioning When Installed on 2001 Land Rover Discovery II
• I'd begin by testing the 7-way on the Land Rover. The trailer wiring FAQ I've linked you to will show you which pins on the 7-way will show voltage as each turn signal/brake lamp/ running lamp function is activated. Make sure the 7-way is wired as shown in the FAQ. Then, plug the adapter into the 7-way and test each function. If you don't have a circuit tester, we offer one as part # PTW2993. Usually when you have both turn signals operating at the same time, it indicates a ground problem....

• No Trailer Brakes when Stepping on Brake Pedal on a 1998 Land Rover Range Rover
• The problem you are having is definitely on the red wire. If you use the brake pedal and get no trailer braking action then that indicates the connection on the red wire is the issue. Make sure it is securely attached to the brake switch wire. Also, make sure that you have the right wire. You would want to test all of the wires that you can find at the brake switch. The wire needs to have power only when the brake pedal is pressed. If it has power with the headlights or turn signals on...

• Tips For Getting Brake Sensor of Tekonsha ZCI Harness To Work On 2006 Land Rover Range Rover
• If you've already done the learning process after removing the sensor and reinstalling it then there's really only two things to check. First is pretty easy, just remove the brake sensor and swap it with another sensor, either of the turn signal ones that are currently work. See if now you have brake lights lighting up as turn signals. If it does this then we know the harness is correct and it's just not hooked up to the correct wire of your 2006 Land Rover Range Rover. If it still doesn't...

• Trailer Wiring Harness 118624 Only Plugs Half Way Onto a 2013 Land Rover Evoque
• Is there room for the connector on # 118624 to go on any further or does it stop half way? It will be a tight fit and it might take a little more muscle to fully seat the 2 connectors. You could use some dielectric grease, # LT37534, on the connections and it could make sliding it on easier and provide moisture protection.

• Will Curt Echo Brake Controller Apply Trailer Brakes When Bumps are Hit
• The Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 would not under normal circumstances apply the trailer brakes when you hit bumps. It does have an inertia sensor that looks for sudden changes in movement to apply the trailer brakes, but the brakes of the tow vehicle would have to be on for that to happen first. So if you were applying the brakes of your tow vehicle and you hit a large bump you might feel a momentary application of the trailer brakes but it would immediately release...

• Troubleshooting Hyperflash When 2008 Land Rover Is Connected To Trailer With LED Lights
• The LED lights on your new cargo trailer should not require resistors or diodes. Typically, resistors are used on a vehicle that switches to LED lights, but not needed for a trailer with LEDs. You can try an adapter like part # C35FR to see if it eliminates the hyperflashing problem. It has not been tested on your vehicle but the resistors are built into the adapter. It will attach to the 4-way plug on the trailer and then plug into the 7-way connector on your Land Rover. Load resistors...

• Fix Potential Hyper Flashing On 2017 Land Rover Discovery
• I understand your concern that some newer vehicles have to recognize that a trailer is plugged into the connector in order for the towing functions to activate. When a trailer has LED lights the power draw is very low, but that's one advantage of LED lights. However since the power draw is so low the vehicle doesn't recognize the trailer and therefore doesn't turn on the towing features. Another cause could be that the 2017 Land Rover Discovery recognizes the lights being on the circuit...

• No Power to Trailer Plug on 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
• If you suddenly loose power to all trailer lights then that usually points to a blown fuse/fuses. I checked the owner's manual for a 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport to locate these fuses, the two that I found were #15 (Blue 15 Amp) and #54 (Blue 15 Amp). If these fuses both check out then you'd want to confirm the issue is on the vehicle and not the trailer by using a circuit tester on each of the pins on the vehicle side. If there's still no power you'd have to take the vehicle into...

• Troubleshooting Trailer Brake Controller Installation in 2002 Land Rover Discovery II
• You can easily test your Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller # 39510 by using a circuit tester such as # PTW2993. First you will want to test that the unit is properly receiving a brake signal from the vehicle. This input signal to the controller is carried on the red wire. Apply the circuit tester (the linked video shows how to use it) to the red wire and press the brake pedal. If you detect a signal on the red wire then you know the controller is receiving its brake signal from...

• Troubleshooting A Chirping Noise Coming From An Atwood Rooftop AC Unit
• I spoke with Dometic and they didn't think the the chirp was coming from the rooftop unit of your # AT15027-22. I recommend removing the shroud and ensuring the compressor and all other parts are completely tightened down and there's not debris possibly in the unit. You should also have a licensed technician check the Freon levels because either too low or too high Freon levels will cause different noises.

• Troubleshooting Trailer Wiring that Doesn't Work with 2008 Silverado
• Have you tried cleaning the pins of the trailer connector on your truck? Most likely you have a dirty pin that has some corrosion on it that all you'd need to do is clean with some sandpaper and that will get you going. Check also the back of the connector for any corrosion or cut wires there and fix as needed. I attached a help article on trailer wiring troubleshooting for you to check out as well.
