Racerse Posted 52 minutes ago Share Posted 52 minutes ago My former 2013 Evoque displayed a trailer/caravan connection through a tow car and trailer icon on the dashboard when signaling. However, my 2023 P300e does not exhibit this feature. I have been informed that this could be due to the vehicle's inability to recognize the trailer/caravan. Is this accurate, or has JL eliminated this indicator in the latest models? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grundysp Posted 50 minutes ago Share Posted 50 minutes ago The factory-installed tow hitch on my MY21 automobile features particular turn signal indicators on the entirely digital instrument panel, along with a specialized display for towing through the rearview camera. The Pivi Pro menus include settings for the towing configuration (e.g., trailer, caravan, etc.). All these functionalities are initiated immediately upon the connection of the trailer lighting plug to the tow bar socket. It is also worth noting that the rear proximity sensors are automatically disabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grundysp Posted 49 minutes ago Share Posted 49 minutes ago Is it an original equipment manufacturer tow bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racerse Posted 46 minutes ago Author Share Posted 46 minutes ago Tow Trust made a great aftermarket removable tow bar, and I love it. When I connect the connector, the park assist turns off, and the caravan's lights turn on, but the dashboard doesn't show any indication. On the other hand, I haven't checked to see if any additional Pivi menus pop up during the connection process. Perhaps that is the next step for me. On my previous 2013 Evoque, which had the same brand of bar, the indicators would light up in the shape of a green car and trailer. (As mentioned before) the P300e does not.

Kiddokt Posted 45 minutes ago Share Posted 45 minutes ago After purchasing my MY20.5 P300e in July 2021 from the official LR dealer, I had a towbar installed. Similar to what I get Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racerse Posted 44 minutes ago Author Share Posted 44 minutes ago Was that an aftermarket towbar made by JL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreexPatty Posted 44 minutes ago Share Posted 44 minutes ago Indeed, it was the authorized LR towbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preedom Posted 43 minutes ago Share Posted 43 minutes ago Is the operation to check the bulb functional? This is accomplished through the touchscreen, though a button is also located in the rear load space for the factory fit option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypabl Posted 43 minutes ago Share Posted 43 minutes ago Have you had this installed on your car, or was it already there when you purchased it? If the second option is correct, you should probably get in touch with Tow Trust to find out what features they anticipate (your installer should have used their loom, right?). If the answer is yes, then you should contact your installer again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
