  • Trailer Socket Connection

    Hi,

    I've not done any work on my 04 Prado GXL, I only bought it last month but I have a few things I'd like to do next year.

    In the meantime though I need to fix the trailer socket because one of the pins has been broken. I'm reluctant to disconnect the battery because I don't know the radio PIN. Would it be ok to just unplug the 30A fuse?

    Any help appreciated.

    Hi Andy. Why are you going to disconnect the battery? I understand you wish to replace the female socket on the rear of the Prado? Unless one of the pins is being used for a caravan battery feed, (in which case you could simply pull the fuse) there will be no need to disconnect the battery as none of the conductors will be live if the lights are off, brake light switch is not in use and ignition switch is off. If you are still concerned, simply run a probelight or voltage tester along the pins to ensure all are dead before you start the job. Cheers, Derb.

      Hi Andy,

      Replaced my 7-pin round for a 12-pin flat, as Derb says, no lights on then no volts to worry about.

      See here for pin assignments:

        Hi Guys,

        Thanks for the help. I disconnected the battery anyway, but I thik it was better that way. My wiring has the Auxilliary which I "think" means power should be disconnected but better safe than sorry.

        All went back together well and is working now.

        Electric windows confused the heck out of me when I restored power bu I think i have my head round that too.

        Thanks again

        Andy
