Troubleshooting Trailer Wiring Converter Box On 2012 Dodge Journey

My right turn signal does not work coming out of converter box trailer wiring on 2012 dodge journey. New wires but only just plugged into trailer after 1 ear of being on. Used tester. All other lights work including left blinker.

If you used a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to check that right turn signal going into the converter and coming out of the converter and it works going in but not coming out, there are really only 2 possible options. The first is that you have a bad ground to your converter and just need to make sure you have a clean metal to metal connection. If your right turn and stop still won't work after cleaning a ground, then the converter is bad and will need to be replaced.
If you need to replace your wiring harness, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118567 if you have incandescent lights and # 118536 if you have LED lights on your Journey. Both of these wiring harnesses install behind your tail lights on either side and require a power cable from the battery and a ground.
