Trailer Wiring

[Gregory OConnor]

Curt, how are you powering the stop lights? are you leaving it federal putting them thru the left and right turn? if you seperated them European style you can still use the variable brake signal to trip a relay that sends 12 volts to the lights only??? but you will need a stoplite pin and a brake drum pin on the trailer plug

I was trying to remember how I fixed the flasher /brake controller problem so I hookedmy olde brake trailer toa dump and realized I never corrected the problem!!! Idont use the pintal hitch e brake trailer, too small and DOT wrote me up because my truck has antilock and the trailer does not. the problem still exist. here is one link I foundthat may not require learning what causes the problem
