Trailer Running Lights Not Working When Connected to 2008 Nissan Armada with Factory Tow Package
Question:
My 2008 Nissan Armada has a built-in trailer plug, I do have turn and brake lights but no running lights is there a fuse for them?

Expert Reply:
It is very common for the Armada to lack a relay that allows your trailer's running lights to function. For this you will need the 4 Terminal Relay, one of the blue relays in the Curt Relay Kit # C57000. To access the relay connection point in your 2008 Nissan Armada, you will need to remove the kick panel on the driver's side. The location for the relay will be to the left of the steering column. I have attached a video of the relay being installed on a Titan. Check out the 3-minute mark. The installation process on the Armada will be nearly identical.
