mariolw3, I would suggest you check the junction box under the trailer, at the other end of the trailer's 7-round cord/plug. After removing a small plastic shroud, open-up the metal junction box and inspect the (in my case vary sloppy) wire-nut connections. It's possible that any of the 3 wires directed to the rear, R & L turn and tail wires, is grounding-out and causing the fuse to trip. Which fuse is it? Actually, the fuses inside the trailer don't directly control the outside trailer lights. Let us know what you find out. Good luck, David-OKC-TABalloy #905

Subject: [tabtrailers] Electrical Problem
When we hooked up our T@B #056 to our tow vehicle, a Dodge Dakota and go through the electrical check of brakes and lights we found a problem.
When the brakes on the truck are applied the brake lights on the T@B do not come on. And also a fused in the trailer then is tripped.
We have used sandpaper on the connection plug for any corrosion, but are wondering what the solution might be?
Has anyone had this problem?
Happy Trails.
