Everything works fine for the truck concerning the lights and my problem arises when I try to hook up a trailer plug to it. I have purchased the correct trailer wiring harness that plugs into my wiring harness at the rear of truck, everything wortks ok on the rear but when I test the wiring harness with the tail lights on and I press on the brake pedal to test the braking circuit the test light goes out. This is before I hook up the trailer so my problem is in the truck. Can anyone tell me what is wrong.I talked to a trailer wiring person and he thinks possibly the grounding wire is not grounding properly. All other lights work such as tail lights on left and right signals work OK , Even using the cable converter for the trailer works ok everything except that dang braking circuit.
