Tow bar and electrics (1 Viewer)

[Gooney]

Many years ago as a mechanic I used to make good bonus fitting tow bars and electrics for a main dealer, I'm considering fitting a bar and electrics to my car, a 2011 Peugeot 3008. I've just looked up the kit on t,net, bar not bad at ~ £110 but the electrics kit....£200 supply only and it needs to be programmed when fitted by Peugeot computerised system, (I'm sure there,s other computers to do it) but still not a DIY job any more. Bloody Canbus systems, scotch locks are a thing of the past!!oh:

Talking theoretical, you could still do it.

If you wired a transistor to the bulbs in question then used that to drive the extra bulbs the load would be so small the CANBUS would not spot anything had changed.

Probably so Brian, but the thought of tapping into ribbon cabling or onto the back of lamp sockets....and still doesn't overcome the fact the Canbus needs reprogrammingoh:
