The Scorpio has a dashboard warning light to tell you when/if the trailer direction indicators are working, but does anyone know how to make the right connections to the towing socket to get this light to work - Please ??

My Scorp is a diesel and has a tow bar fitted, but it doesn't have the dashboard warning light. Not sure whether mine is meant to have one but everytime the indicator goes on a relay just to the left of the boot catch buzz's. Matt
