How to Fix Check Trailer Wiring Message on 2015 Chevrolet Silverado and Trailer with LED Lights
Question:
Hi Any experience with this item fixing a Check Trailer Wiringinch message on a 2015 Silverado? We are pulling a Featherlite trailer with LED lights. We have checked wiring over and over and cannot find the problem. Dealer and bed manufacturer also cannot figure it out. Came across this item on the web. New Chevy 2015 3500 HD Silverado pulling a New Featherlite trailer with LED lights. Truck bed is an aftermarket Freedom Truck bed - Mustang from Blueridgemfg.com Thought it might be worth trying this before changing out any of the new wiring.

The Curt 7-Way Trailer Adapter # C57003 is designed to be used on Volkswagens, Audis, and Porsches but we have seen some success on other vehicle makes.
I can't say for sure but it might solve your issue. The adapter uses load resistors which creates more power draw. Another possible solution is to install load resistors # DI34ZR.
