Troubleshooting LED Light on right Side of Trailer Stays on
Question:
Left side led lights work perfect. Running, brake, stop, signal, hazard. On my right side the running light is a lot brighter. Like the stop light is on constantly. I have signal, and hazard. The lights are brand new and they are led. Thank you very much.!!!

Helpful Expert Reply:
It could be that there is some residual voltage present at the 4-Way on your trailer which is sending enough power to activate your LED light if you have a powered module like part # 119250KIT, but it could also be an incorrect connection or an insufficient ground.
I would start off by checking your grounds making sure they are secure and connected to a clean, bare-metal surface. If they look good check the wiring on your trailer for any places where the wiring is damaged or bent and replace accordingly.
Since it is only happening to one side I believe that your ground or wiring is the issue but if you check everything and it looks good let me know and I can help you troubleshoot further. I have attached a troubleshooting article that you can reference as well.
