Abstract
Most vehicles with towing capabilities are equipped with trailer modules that control trailer lights (stop, turn, park, reverse and rear fog lamps) and brakes, and offer advanced features such as trailer lamp diagnosis, trailer lamp detection, and automatic trailer connection detection. These modules also utilize industry-standard 7/4-way trailer connectors able to measure the electrical characteristics of the trailer lamps and brakes to confirm a successful trailer connection.
