Helpful Expert Reply:
If the landing gear controls on your trailer are now operating in the opposite direction after installing the Replacement Switch # LG-145236, it is indeed a simple case of miswiring with the wires between the switch and motor. Swapping the red and black wires to the motor (NOT the wires going to the battery) should resolve this issue.
