No Right Side Trailer Stop/Turn Signals On 2015 Ram 2500

Question

Question:

My trailer has no brake or blinker on the right side. It has running lights. I have hooked three different trailers to my truck and none of them have right brake light or trailer so it’s got to be on my truck. How do I figure out if it is just the receptacle on the bumper or something else?

Expert Reply:

If you don't have brake or turn signals on the right side of your trailers then the most likely cause of this issue is just a blown fuse, F81 in the engine bay fuse box which is a yellow 20 amp. If the fuse is good then check the wiring behind the trailer connector to see if anything has been cut or pulled loose.

Answer 1

From the image you attached, I think what you have is each of the taillight circuits on your 4-way have two wires ran to them for each side of the trailers wiring. You can wire the two wires of each pin to the single wires of a new 4-way allowing the…

Connecting the brown running light wire in standard 4-pole wiring to both tail lights will require a jumper wire from one side of the trailer to the other, or you can install what's called a wishbone harness that has dual brown running light…

I went out to the warehouse and pulled a 35 ft. Wishbone 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness, #A35W42B, and used a wire gauge tool to measure the wires. The copper wire itself is 20 gauge. If you measure the wire with the insulation on it then it is thicker…

Answer 5

Did you have a 4-pin connector that had 5 wires or was it a 5-pin connector? There is a big difference since you normally see a 5-pin connector on a boat trailer with the 5th pin used for an electric reverse lockout solenoid on a brake actuating…

Answer 6

What you have is a 4-way wishbone harness like part #A35W42B. It's a 4-way with two brown wires so you can run a running light circuit down each side of the trailer and not have to use a jumper wire to go from one side to the other. It makes…

I recommend moving away from the Adapter 4-Pole to 5-Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter #47515 and going with a Buyers Products Trailer Connector Adapter #337TC1474P. The wiring and connectors used on the 4-way harness are not designed to be used with the…

Answer 8

The Equal-i-zer Shank part #EQ90-02-4900 would be your best option to give you the amount of drop you need to tow your trailer level. The Curt shank you have now part #C17131 can do up to 2 inches of drop but the Equal-i-zer can do up to 6 inches so…

Answer 9

It sounds like you have a classic ground issue on your trailer that is preventing proper voltage from reaching back to the tail lights. What I recommend doing is first making sure the main ground for the trailer connector is secured to a clean bare…
