And once the wiring has been done what's the wiring code for the turn indicator bleeper when you have a trailer lighting board connected.

Apologies for slight thread hi-jack :(

If you buy a socket - it will surely come with a wiring diagram. And you either will need a relay to operate the flashers - or a high rated flasher unit which can cope with 3 X 21 w bulbs... But it may not have the additional terminal for the warning lamp.

you can if you wish to use the relay method rather than change the flasher unit use the "smart bypass" units sold for modern cars that have bulb failure detection as this then separates the trailer wiring from the cars! they also have the buzzer fitted in them (some have warning light output too)
