Retrofit oem fullt electric tow bar /trailer hitch

Hi. My 2019 E300de estate do not have tow bar from factory.

I bought a oem electrical swiveling trailer hitch (marked oris) from a used parts dealer.

I mounted the hitch and pulled the wiring through so it ends behind the rear right taillight.

Where do i get hold of electrical wiring diagram where to plug in the cables?

I also have the electrical switch to deploy the hook that is supposed to be mounted in the left side of the boot door. But cant find any cable to plug in the switch.

Please help med since the local merc dealer juat want me to bring the car in for them to finish the job i started which i think will be overly charged.

I know i have to take it in to dealer to code in 550 later but thats ok. I just dobt want them to charge me for parts.

When I do not know the answer, what I usually do is:
  • Google it
  • Go to YouTube.com
Hope this helps
