The invention relates to a coupling control module for a trailer coupling (10) for connection to an electrical system (86) of a motor vehicle (80), wherein: a trailer (180) can be hitched to the motor vehicle (80) by means of the trailer coupling (10); the coupling control module (30) activates and/or monitors at least one electrical function of the trailer coupling (10); the coupling control module (30) has at least one bus interface (36, 37) for communication with a digital bus (85), in particular a CAN bus, of the electrical system (86) of the motor vehicle (80); the coupling control module (30) can send bus messages (SN, M) to the at least one motor vehicle bus module (90), connected to the digital bus (85), of the motor vehicle (80) and/or can receive bus messages (SN, M) from the at least one motor vehicle bus module (90); the coupling control module (30) is designed to send at least one configuration bus message (N3) to the at least one motor vehicle bus module (90) via the at least one bus interface (36, 37); the configuration bus message (N3) contains a configuration identifier (96), which identifies the presence of the coupling control module (30) and/or of the trailer coupling (10) for entry into configuration data (95) of the motor vehicle bus module (90). The coupling control module (30) has an external communication interface (41) for communication with a configuration device (60) for configuring the at least one motor vehicle bus module (90) and a communication module (40) for generating the configuration bus message (N3) using a conversion of an external configuration message (K3) received from the configuration device (60) at the external communication interface (41).
