2006 Audi A3 (8P Sportback) Trailer Lighting Converter Installation
The Audi A3 is part of a new generation in automotive electronics, which brings both a new ability to customize it easily as well as new issues to take into account when tapping into or modifying the electrical system. With modern technology, everything in the A3 is handled through one of several onboard computer systems. Every switch and device (including light bulbs) is part of the Controller Area Network (CAN) which runs throughout the car.

Changing these settings can be accomplished with a commercially-available software program and interface cable, and is something frequently done by Audi enthusiasts.

These instructions allow you to take advantage of the built-in feature of what is commonly called “EV (electric vehicle) Mode” of your 2004+ Prius. In Japan and European versions of the Toyota Prius the vehicle is sold with an EV Button pre-installed by Toyota. For some reason, in the North American version this button is left off (note: speculation focuses on possible EPA/NHTSB regulations that were unclear as to whether the option to use 2 different ‘fuels’ was legal.

As a result, this guide will not cover the installation of the BMW Sirius Satellite Antenna and you should follow the instructions supplied with the BMW Sirius Satellite Antenna Kit if you decide to go that route.
