METHOD OF DETERMINING A LEFT-OR-RIGHT SIDE INSTALLATION POSITION OF A TRAILER WHEEL

A method of determining a left or right side installation position of a trailer wheel of a trailer connected to a tow vehicle. A number of rotations of the trailer wheel is determined using an acceleration sensor, and a number of rotations of a left side tow vehicle wheel and a right side tow vehicle wheel is determined using an ABS sensor or ESP sensor of the left side tow vehicle wheel and the right side two vehicle wheel, respectively. A first correspondence value between the number of rotations of the trailer wheel and the number of rotations of the left side tow vehicle wheel is determined. A second correspondence value between the number of rotations of the trailer wheel and the number of rotations of the right side tow vehicle wheel is determined. A left side or right side installation position of the trailer wheel is determined based on the first correspondence value and the second correspondence value.
