Updated 11/16/2016 | Published 11/15/2016
Question:
I have a 2011 BMW X5 that has a factory hitch wire harness .My question is will your led trailer light system adapter for Audi/VW work on a BMW with lamp out sensors like it does for VW/AUDI?

Expert Reply:
The 7-Way to 5-Way and 4-Way Trailer Adapter, part # C35FR would be the adapter that will work on your 2011 X5. The description says Audi, Porsche, and Volkswagen but it is designed for vehicles with a factory tow package that have the lamp-out sensors.
The diodes inside the adapter keep the vehicle from thinking there is a problem with your taillights.
