12 pin Nato plug wanted
« on: August 08, 2014, 11:37:12 PM »
G'day,
I am looking for a 12 pin NATO plug for my '89 Perentie to make an adapter for a standard trailer 7 pin. Don't want to alter the Landy wiring if possible.

Can anyone suggest where I can buy a plug?

Regards

Johnic

Check Ebay UK under Military Vehicles etc for NATO plugs.
or sometimes,  Disposal / outdoor/ 4wd shops that might have purchased No5 Trailers.
They usually cut off the plugs to convert to civvy plugs.

I've got one I bought from the UK. It's not cheap though.

You could get this, and then the 12 to severn adaptor. Should only be about $270 landed. ( and no I don't sell these, and no I don't have any connection with this company )

Could be a good thing to have Juddy. Seems plenty of new Petentis owners need an adapter.

Cheers

Then,   when you've got the Nato plug use some trailer wiring (approx 6-8 inch) to connect to this plug.   With the one that I made I can connect any trailer using a large round seven pin to my Perentie but still connect a No.5 using the original plug.

Just carry the "Tail Adaptor" around for instant use.

Thats a good idea.

You will however need to make sure you use the correct wires, and you will not need all the wires from the NATO.

Yes there are a number of different standards under various countries own needs.

I am planning to modify the NATO sockets for all my vehicles so I can use the NATO plug for additional functions.  Some of the following are in the current standard.

F = Blackout stop (this is Rear Fog on UK MoD vehicles)
H = Reversing lamps. ("Convoy" in NATO standard with pins A & C)
J = Service brakes (electric trailer brakes). (RH Stop in NATO Standard Pin B LH stop)
L = Vehicle ground.

Am even planning to have metal plates to identify the non-standard wiring.

Yep, the Yank ones are useable but be aware you have to change some of the wiring around in the plug.
The Yank ones use a different wiring point setup.  A multimetre will fix the problem.
