iantt Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Nope, should be 12v , I assume the reverse lights work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike09 Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 on the left side it is working but right side isnt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 So are you checking for feed on left or right side of car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike09 Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 both sides were only showing 0.1/0.2 but ideally left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike09 Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 this is the state of the wiring that i have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Thats a mess! Reverse wires shouldnt be tapped into on 12n tow bar wiring, the colour I said was for left side, took that info from parking sensor wiring diagrams from xvision, will check ford diagrams next to make sure of colours.
