IFS- ABS warning light when connecting caravan trailer plug.
I am stumped and totally confused.
Whenever I connect my standard caravan trailer plug to the Lux, whith engine off or not, soon after the ABS warning light comes on. This only happens when the trailer plug is connected.
I have double checked the trailer plug on the caravan's side, everything looks fine.
My question is this - the standard loom that comes with the Hilux trailer connection, has different colour coding to the "standard" Hella colours, for instance, there is a RED and GREEN cable that I cannot find out what it is for. I have managed to find all the other functions: i.e. indicators, brakes, taillamps, etc.
I recently replaced my rear bumper after a coming together of my drawplate with a stubborn rock! but the problem existed before the replacement, in fact it was so since I bought it. Even had it with the sellers soon after I discovered it, but as I said, it seems to only happen when the trailer plug is connected.
Any help, and especially a wire colour chart for the lux side of the plug would come in at 110%
Thanks in advance

Hi Theunis.
Het jy al 'n oplossing vir jou probleem.
my ABS liggie het ook gister aangekom toe ek my boot sleep
Toe ek nader ondersoek doen toe sien ek dat as my flikker aan is en ek trap briek dan verdoof die flikkers en die brieke flikker van die sleepwa.
Ek gaan 'n ander "earth" draad insit en kyk of dit werk.

Re: IFS- ABS warning light when connecting caravan trailer p
Ek gaan dieselfde probeer - meeste ligte issues (other than ABS warning :wth: ) het te doen met slegte earth.....
Het 'n trailer gehad wat sulke disco ligte gemaak het totdat ek die earth reggestel het.....
Sal laat weet wat gebeur....

George
Die earth waarvan jy praat - was dit op die trailer? En was dit aan die ligte se kant, of die trailer plug se kant?
Thanks

Re: IFS- ABS warning light when connecting caravan trailer p
Die Toyota wiring loom het NIE n earth draad nie. N kort stukkie groen draag word bygegee, die word dan vasgeboud waar die lig socket aan die towbar gebout word - perfekte resep vir n swak verbinding.
Lê n ordentlike earth aan en kyk wat hy maak.

Nou weet ek hoekom Forest se ABS liggie aankom as ek die baba-wa sleep...
Dit het nog nooit gebeur as ek die Hump sleep nie...

Re: IFS- ABS warning light when connecting caravan trailer p
Check the earthing right at the light enclosures on the trailer. They're also prone to have bad earthing. Could also be an incorrect bulb (single action in a double action slot) that causes the problemgeorge wrote:Hi Theunis het jy toe reg gekom?

Nee ouens regtig, dit het met my ook gebeur, toe klap ek die dashboard.
Daarna het ek by PietPetoors se huis gestop, toe gee hy my n nuwe fuse wat ek in gesit het, toe werk alles reg.
Ek is seker die dashboard het iets daarmee te doen. :?
