Enable Pilot Assist while towing?

[tomasz]

Hey all, I searched through the master config codes and didn’t see anything that applied to this.

I just had the tow compute module added with a stealth hitch on my ‘18 XC60 for a bike rack that has lights. When plugging in the lights, the car thinks there’s a trailer attached and disables BLIS and Pilot Assist. Is there an option to have the lights work without disabling Pilot Assist?

Thanks!

I discovered that to detect a trailer it senses load on several of the lighting circuits.  Connecting just one won't work. 
LED need a load resister to be detected.  I only needed a feed for the licence plate light for a tyre carrier so bypassed the trailer module completely. 

There is a setting to disable trailer assist - you could trail this and see if stability control software is what disables the other systems.
