It's the tow bar wiring part # HM56200 that's preventing the trailer wiring from working. If you have to have trailer wiring and tow bar wiring this is not the solution.
For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with a round 6-way connector that you will install on the front of your towed vehicle and enough coiled wire to go from there to the RV. This style of tow bar wiring does not interfere with trailer wiring.
