Mot test on towing electrics.
Am I right in thinking that the MOT now includes a test on the 13 pin socket for the towbar electrics? If so, does anybody have a wiring diagram for a test plug so I dont have any surprises when I take it in. The ones I have seen so far are darned expensive.

Yes. I thought it was April that it started, but looking around it seems to have been January, so not sure now when it comes/came in.

Shall pop in and have a looky. Dont really want to spend £20-30 on a tester so shall have to weigh up the cost/savings. Thanks for your help peoples.
