Solution for 2020 GM Truck that Won't Recognize Trailer Wiring Connection
Question:
We have a 2020 chevy pickup 2500. Our truck disnt recognize our trailer when hooked up so lights dont work. The chip in new gm trucks dont recognize a trailer if it is under .55 ma. Our trailer is only .50ma so the truck dosnt recognize it. Dealer and gm manufacturer wont do anything. Lots of complaints on sites about this problem with gm trucks. Do you have any thing that can help? Please

Expert Reply:
What you need is more resistance on your trailer wiring circuits so that your truck thinks a trailer is connected. So what you could do is install the load resistors part # DI34ZR on two of your trailer wiring circuits and your truck would draw more amperage when connected and you'd be good.
