Will Sensor Prevent Warning If Light Is Out Using The Trailer Connector Adapter # 20142
Question:
We are towing a 2021 Jeep Wrangler with premium LED lighting package behind our 2022 Mercedes Benz Winnebago View RV. Our tow package was professionally installed and we are getting a lamp out error on the Jeep display AND on the Mercedes display. All lights and signals are working properly. Should we use this part #20142 bypass or was the wrong diode wiring kit installed? Should they have installed item RM38FR? If we use this lamp out bypass #20142, will the vehicles still display the lamp out message if a lamp actually is out? Thanks for the help

Yes, The Trailer Connector Adapter w/ Lamp-Out Sensor Bypass # 20142 will still display the lamp of message is lamp is out.
The adapter is designed for vehicles with lamp out sensors such as Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, and Porsche. This adapter plugs into the 7-way, RV-style trailer connector on your vehicle.
This adapter also provides a new 7-way, RV-style trailer connector that works with trailers that have LED lights.
