1999 Ranger trailer tow wiring

The wire to the LH trailer stop/turn light shorted out at the trailer and they quit working. We checked the fuses related to the LH turn/stop and all are ok. All right side lights work and all truck lights work. There is no fire at the trailer connector on the truck for the left side. If anyone has any ideas on where I should look, please respond. Dave

I would take the plug apart and see if a wire was loose to start with, if you are absolutely sure no fuses are blown, either under the dash or under the hood.

Thanks for your post. I have checked as far as where the adapter harness hooks up to the main harness under the bed. No fire coming from the main. Dave

Don't waste your time under the dash or the hood. He said *ALL* truck lights are working. The problem is between where the trailer wiring splices into the truck wiring at the rear frame and the inop brake light. If the LH trailer tail light is also out, I would start by looking for an open ground at that light.

LH taillight works. Lh turn/stop are inop. Also, the trailer lights are fused separately from the truck lights at the dash fuse panel. Dave
