I would first check the bulb of the left tail light and make sure that the socket is not corroded or damaged. You would then have to trace the wire for the fixture looking for any pinched or broken wires. I would also recommended looking for cracked or worn down wires that would allow the copper conductor to come into contact with any metal on your trailer. To make the process easier you could use The Hook Probe Circuit Tester # PTW2993 and start tracing the circuit from the trailer connector, all the way back to the light fixture.
