Trailer side lights not working

My old man has a Brand new disco, i'm not sure if its a D5 of a D4 facelift that they're called.

Anyhow, he was dicking about with his trailer electrics and shorted something out by accident and now when it's plugged in to the Disco, there's no sidelights on the trailer (tested on 3 trailers)

Brake lights and indicators are all fine, we have tried to look for a fuse but we cannot find anything, obviously traditionally it would blow the fuse for the vehicle side lights but with it having LED lights, we're a bit stuck.

Can anyone advise?

Cheers

I believe that the trailer light fuses are in the rear nearside corner, behind the hatch.

The trailer fuses are listed in the handbook. They are located on the fuse panel (CJB) behind the glove box.

As you haven't filled in your vehicle details in your profile yet Whistle , on a MY13, it's on page 215 of the handbook, and the fuse for trailer side lamps is No. 27 - 10amp in the CJB as Robbie said.

On a D3 the trailer light fuse box is behind the rear side cubby. I rewired my entire trailer for a second time in order to fix the issue not even thinking there was a trailer fuse panel! Evil or Very Mad

One of many differences between the D3 and the D4.
