Yes, there is a short between the running light wire on your trailer and the brake output or stop/turn lights. The first thing to do to correct this is clean off the trailer connector pins. Once this is done, test the pins on the vehicle side trailer connector to make sure there is no power on the running light pin with either the trailer or vehicle brakes applied. If you do get power when this is preformed then you have a short on the vehicle side wiring but if not then you have a short on the trailer side wiring. Regardless, you will just need to start tracing wires back.
