Is Curt Adapter C57003 for Use Only with LED Trailer Lights
Question:
Does your trailer have to have LED lights for this to work? Will this work with regular lights?
asked by: Kathy D
Expert Reply:
Curt 7-Way-to-7-Way wiring adapter # C57003 is intended for specific applications with import vehicles like Mercedes, Audi and VW when they tow a trailer that has LED lights. The vehicles that require this adapter are those that have bulb-out sensors which can be fooled by the low power draw of LED trailer lights. Such low power draw can cause the vehicle to think you have a bad bulb and cause an error message on the instrument panel.
This adapter has a male plug that connects to a vehicle 7-way and also a 7-way female socket into which the trailer plug will connect
If you can tell me what type of vehicle and trailer wiring you have and more about the issue you're having I will be glad to help you select any needed items.
