I recently bought a 97 discovery. What im trying to do is replace the factory trailer socket with a hopkins 7 pin socket. When I took apart the factory socket the colors do not match any wiring diagram color code I can find. Here is what I found:

Spot 1: Left Turn - Yellow
Spot 2: Fog Lights - Blue
Spot 3: Earth/Ground - White
Spot 4: Right Turn - Green
Spot 5: Right Side Light - Brown
Spot 6: Brake Lights - Red
Spot 7: Left Side Light - Black

This is what was on my discovery when I took it apart:

Spot 1: Yellow
Spot 2: Blue
Spot 3: White
Spot 4: Green
*Spot 5: Red
*Spot 6: Orange
*Spot 7: Brown

And this is how the Hopkins Trailer Socket is labeled:

GD - Ground
LT - Left Turn
T/M - Tail Light
BU - Back-up
AX - Auxiliary
RT - Right Turn
EB - Electric Brake

So I have no idea how to hook this up to all the connections. I hooked up the the left, right turn and the ground. I also hooked up the red wire into the taillight spot and thats it since its a jet ski trailer with only a 4-wire hookup on it. What I want to do is hook up all the wires but do not know where they go. When I did plug the trailer into it the only light that would work is the right turn signal. It also blew my turn signal fuse when I had it plugged in so I know its not hooked up right.

So does anyone have any websites and any knowledge on this so I can get this hooked up right. I plan on calling Land Rover and Hopkins tomorrow and see if they can help me out but I came here first to see if I can get any info from people that own a Land Rover.

This is the website I found to see the wiring diagram:

I had the same problem. It's because you turn signals are seperate from you brake lights. You have to buy a converter to a 4 pin and splice it in. The one you buy will have the directions in it. I can't remember the brand I got but it isn't complicated. I'll look around and see if I have the directions that have the name on them and let you know.

Nevermind, I forgot I was smart enough to use a multimeter so I got the 4 wires that I need to for my trailer. I guess when I buy a camper I'll have to figure out the last 3 wires. Thanks for the help tho guys!!
