- E300 Avantgarde 1998,C250 CDi 2000, E320 2002, E320 CDW211 2005. FL2,RRS 2011,GLE 2016
I have the factory fitted detachable towbar with the electrical socket already under the rear bumper but never been used. I plugged in my trailer and the sidelights work but not indicators etc. Do I need to get either a special towing module or a short adaptor cable. Sorry for the question but this is my 3rd Mercedes starting with an E300 CD in 1999, then a W210 E320 CDi upto 114,000 miles and just got a 2005 E320 CDi. The previous two I had aftermarket towbars fitted and they were fine but having now retired and knowing how electrically sensitive the W211 merc is I want to make sure I don't do something stupid which ends costing me more than I would save. Thanks.
