Good Morning,

I have recently replaced the plug on my trailer and my bronco that feeds trailer lighting. All the lights work with the exception of the running lights and I am unable to find a broken or damage wire that would explain this. I bought the new trailer wiring kit as I felt the old age of my trailer plugs could be the culprit, but this did not fix the problem. Any advice or suggestions to correct this issue with the trailer running lights not working. I have plugged into my wifes truck and all works just fine, so I know this problem is isolated to the bronco.

Thanks

I have the exact same problem. brake lights and turn signals work, but at night time....no tail lamps on the trailer.
