Thread: Trailer Light Problem

Have you got a cheap 12 volt tester light ? That can help find lack of power or bad ground. Sometimes ground can be bad or power can grounded out shorting and blowing fuses.

check ground first

Already did. It is a bad ground or a short somewhere. It goes through all the functions except for one. The left running light goes out when the lights are on, other than that, it works fine. I meant to leave my number. Id rather do it in person or over the phone if someone is willing. 501-658-8616

I fought with lights going out on my 12 year old trailer, get one working, another quit. Harbor freight put their LED trailer wiring kit on sale and I had a 20% off coupon so I just replaced everything. Easier on the brain than fighting with floating grounds and rusted connections.

That has definitely crossed my mind.

Yup led lights best way to go. Chris use the liquid electrical tape and heat shrink on connections to prevent the corrosion. If you have a ohm meter we can trouble shoot it but ya need to have some extra wire. If I can help let me know

I bought the kit. Not LED, but couldnt pass it up for 27 bucks!! Now to install it.....
