Default Trailer Wiring (excursion related). Ugg

Been doing battle with the truck and trailer. Rewired the complete trailer and the driver side for whatever reason doesnt work. I mean the kit is soooo plug and play and we followed it to the T, to the extent of pulling off the ground and ensuring its even grounded better.

The light itself works, ran power and it works fine.

I am guessing the issue has to be stemming from my truck.

So, i hope this help in my quest for working trailer lights. lol

Figured i had better start saving documentation so that when the time comes, i feel kinda prepared. lol





1 guys config

Current configuration at connections
truck white-trailer white
truck yellow-trailer yellow
truck brown/white stripe-trailer brown
truck orange-trailer red

Ok, so, from memory this is where I think i was at (laughs & cries)

Brake lights work
Left Turn Works
Right Turn works

DRL do not.

Regarding the wiring setup below, this is trailer wiring being discussed, I havent touched or looked at anything on the truck. So this is a wiring kit for rear lights and a plug for the front of the trailer. The plug is consider A) and the wiring kit B)

A)Connect Plug below into truck
yellow
green
white
brown (not wired to anything..?.. when plugged into running truck, no power to it)



B) trailer wiring wired into A) above

yellow to yellow
green to green
yellow brown / green brown & white to white A)
white to white



Alll of that has gotten me
Brake lights work
Left Turn Works
Right Turn works

I fought with my wiring last year on the truck, I never really did figure it out, cleaned a bunch of connections and then it started to work again, not even hooking up the trailer just take a volt meter or test light to eliminate the trailer variable.

Ill include the wiring diagram for the F150.

I can say for certain that mine is NOT done correct, but I do have some lights. LOL

Likely need to take it to someone who knows what they are really doing. LOL

Rick, wish you were closer. I could wire it up for you. I don't use a schematic though, just a test light and meter.
