  • Trouble Shooting Trailer Wiring On A 2013 Ford F-150
  • When the trailer is hooked up to your 2013 Ford-F150 and the tail lights and the running lights work but the brake and turn signals do not means that you will have a wire loose somewhere on the vehicle side of the wiring. I would recommend using The Hook Probe Circuit Tester Kit # PTW2993, this will be able to check each wiring function on your vehicle side plug and you will be able to find out which one is loose or could also just be a bad wire. With my educated guess though it sounds...

  • Replacement LED Trailer Tail Lights and Recommended Utility Work Light
  • LED lights do draw much less power than incandescent lights but they can work together. However, the higher draw from the incandescent lights could cause the LEDs to not be as bright as they normally would be. From the picture of your tail light it looks like the # 47-84-008 will work for you. It measures 9-13/16 by 6-15/16 inches. If you can tell me what kind and size of interior lights you're looking to replace I can help you find some of those as well. For the work light one of...

  • What Converter to Use When Adding 3rd LED Brake Light to Trailer?
  • To answer your question- no. The Tekonsha # 118158 will not work with LED lights. The Tekonsha Vehicle to Vehicle Tail Light Converter # 118158 works to separate the functions of 2 wire systems into a 3 wire system that has incandescent lights so that you can add a 3rd brake light that won't get interference from your turn signals . Since you're only adding the 3rd brake light, I think the better solution is to use the Pacer Performance 3rd Brake Light Module # PP20-702 which will allow...

  • How to Connect 4-Way to 5-Way Wiring for Cargo Box Tail Lights
  • I'm happy to help out! The wiring color differences can be a bit frustrating but not all manufacturers use the same colors which is why we always need to match them by function instead - just like what you did.

You need to tap into the reverse...

  • Optronics LED RV Utility Light as a Dome Light
  • Yes, the Optronics LED RV Utility Light item # UCL60CB will work as a replacement dome light. You will need to make sure you don't have your dimmer turned down. LED lights do not have the low ranges on the dimmers as incandescent bulbs do and that could have been your issue with previous LED lights. I recommend turning it all the way up and then adjusting it down for your preference.

  • Troubleshooting Why Left Turn Signal Will Not Work On Boat Trailer
  • I would first check the bulb of the left tail light and make sure that the socket is not corroded or damaged. You would then have to trace the wire for the fixture looking for any pinched or broken wires. I would also recommended looking for cracked or worn down wires that would allow the copper conductor to come into contact with any metal on your trailer. To make the process easier you could use The Hook Probe Circuit Tester # PTW2993 and start tracing the circuit from the trailer connector,...

  • Correct Flat Towing Wiring Harness and Fuse Bypasses For a 2012 GMC Acadia
  • Just the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 by itself is not going to get the lights to work on your 2012 GMC Acadia. You're also going to need these fuse bypasses: (1) # RM-76517 and (2) # RM76511. From here also using the wiring harness you're looking at, you'll be able to pull off those magnetic lights and use the lights on your Acadia when flat towing.

  • Push Button Light Switch for a Wall Light
  • A black push button switch that'll work for your light is part # DG52452VP. We actually just tested this to make sure it'll work the way you need it to. The switch you looked at, part # DG52451VP, is a black push button but cannot be used as a light switch because it's a momentary switch. Meaning it automatically resets itself and would immediately turn the light right back off.

  • LaSalle Bristol Interior RV LED Light Was Flickering But Now Doesnt Work
  • It could be a number of reasons why your LaSalle Bristol RV LED Dome Light # 344410PCDS010008RT, which is no longer offered from the manufacturer, started flickering and now does not work. On average LED bulbs typically have a lifespan of 50,000 hours and there may be a chance that it is burnt out. Voltage drops also will cause flicker, so if you have multiple appliances running at once, it may cause your lights to flicker. Finally, I would check the wiring to the unit itself. You can...

  • Options for Supplementing Reverse Lights on a Vehicle
  • The lens of the Pilot Square Brake Light Hitch Cover, # CR-007, is red and would not work as a reverse light option. If you are looking to supplement your reverse lights, I have several other options that you may be interested in. If your vehicle has a 7-way trailer connector, then you could use the Blazer Light Buster Backup and Utility Light, # C8020. This light simply plugs into your 7-way trailer socket. Finally, take a look at the Bully Bumper Mount Backup Light, # PL-807. This...

  • LED Lights on Trailer will not Work When Towed with 2008 Mercedes-Benz ML320CDi
  • An adapter like the 7-Way to 7-Way LED Trailer Light Adapter, # C57003, contains load resistors which simulate increased power draw so the vehicle thinks there are incandescent lights on the trailer. Just plug this adapter into the back of your Mercedes, plug the trailer into the new 7-way, and you should be good to go. Your vehicle should now recognize the trailer.

  • Troubleshooting Brake Lights And Turn Signals On A 2019 GMC Sierra
  • I recommend starting by testing that the circuit on the 7 way connector of your truck by using the Circuit Tester # PTW2993. There is a chance you're not going to get any power on the circuit when you press the brake or engage the turn signals, if that is the case you will want to trace the wiring back to the rear of the plug and make sure that they are connected to the correct lights on the truck. If that doesn't work I recommend checking under the hood and replace the tail light fuse...

  • Is There an Available Exterior 110v/120v Light for 1996 Rockwood 2307 Pop Up Camper
  • I have a solution for you, but the Optronics LED RV Exterior Scene Light # UCL41CB is designed to work on 12v power only, so it's not going to work on a 110v/120v feed. Unfortunately all of the lights we've got for this application are going to be 12v lights. With that said, if you have a battery on your camper, you could run the wiring for the # UCL41CB to the battery and power the # UCL41CB that way, so you'd have a 12v power source. You would want to install a switch like the Single...

  • Recommended Fix for Cargo Carrier Lights That Hyperflash
  • Odds are your cargo carrier's lights are the super-efficient LED type. These can cause turn signal hyperflashing as you describe. This does not cause any actual harm to anything but it can certainly be annoying. Your options are to try load resistors # DI34ZR that will simulate the resistive load of a standard incandescent bulb, or to replace the cargo carrier lights with a set of incandescent lights such as # 20174.
