LED Trailer lights

Hi all,

My trailer has LED tail lights. When I plug the trailer in, the indicators start pulsing faintly, even before the ignition is on. All the lights work correctly otherwise (Indicators, brake, tail and number plate light).

The dashboard "trailer" light does not flash when indicating.

If anyone out there can offer some (relevant!) advice, that would be great.

Thanks in anticipation.

Spike

You can buy a converter box of tricks that makes the LED lights play nicely with car tow electrics that were designed for regular bulbs.

Thanks Robbie. Any idea where I go for this box? Is it dealers only? What am I asking for and how easy is it to fit?

If you use the search function on here you'll find hours of reading on this subject.
