Towbar

[András]

I would like to install a trailer hook on my 2019 V60. I saw that you added a service function for this.

What I would like to know:
- if I go with OEM solution, do I just need the stuff listed on this page and enable it via Orbit? https://accessories.volvocars.com/en-hu/.../Automatic
If I use this option, does it come with electronic stability program for the trailer? I saw that there is an option for this in Orbit.

- If I go with aftermarket solution, can I still use Orbit to properly set it up for my car?

Thank you

Best regards

Yes to all the questions
You buy all the stuff except the "application"

Then you activate the towbar with OrBit.

That is what I have done and working A-1 except when I go to the dealer because I revert to OEM.

I ordered from dealer and installed by themselves, I think it's the best way. Unless you can get all the hardware parts cheaper from aftermarket. then can use Orbit to change it. but to remind you, the controller module must be activated before, means you must buy second hand controller module, the new module won't have software activation, even you use Orbit to change it also cannot use.

In my XC90, I have aftermarket tow hitch, brand "Westfalia", https://www.rameder.de/westfalia-anhaeng...html#media

Would like to enable the trailer assist, 051 Trailer Stability Assist is enabled. But I can't find anything in menus. I tried to set also, 211. Trailer Module, Aftermarket, but that gives either configuration error or error then in the car display. 

Any ideas how to get trailer assist working and enabled?

Trailer Assist will help you going reverse with a trailer attached. Not sure if it's something related to trailer module being AM and if Westfalia provide OE module. Mine is visible in camera options, check there.

Trailer assist and stability only works with OEM trailer module, wiring and factory hitch.
