• Only One Brake Light is Working with the Peterson Magnetic Tow Light Kit
• You will want to verify that both brake light signals are working at the RV side trailer connector.

• I'm still leaning toward a insufficient ground connection as being the cause of the problem you're describing. To confirm it, you'll need length of wire long enough to reach from your ground connection on the trailer tongue to the negative battery terminal on the vehicle.
