I confirm my trailer works by hooking it to another truck and they work. ok here is where I need help. my google foo is lacking tonight. how do I disassemble the plug to check be hind it. and a long shot here where is the first connection of that wire before the plug? and its a 2k chevy Silverado 1500 |

Google your specific model and year truck with your problem. There are some trucks wheres a short in the trailer lighting system can lead to expensive repairs. That worked and it got me to a bad fuse!! The trailer running lights are the trailer park lights. It took a you tube video to show me which one it was. I had no owners manual or the fuse map on the fuse box cover isn't in the greatest conditions. So the culpert is a 15 amp fuse!! |

If I'm not mistaken, the running lights have a fuse under the hood. On gm s 7 pin stuff everything is fused seperate. At least on my HD it's that way. http://www.fullsizechevy.com/forum/general-discussion/technical-maintenance/378177-trailer-taillights-running-lights-will-not-work-my-04-yukon.html

Yeah the 99 models are slightly different because you could still get a 5.7 instead of the 5.3, the fuse fix it? Lost me. Talking bout Liters? Mine is a 4.8 And yes it did. I found a buddy with an 2k model. Lucky it was the same setup in fuse boxe. So I took a pic and stuck it in the lid!! |
