Troubleshooting Trailer Lighting Where One Side Running Light and Other Side Blinker Doesn't Work
Question:
Good Day, I recently installed the Wesbar Wishbone 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector Wiring Harness. The passenger side running lights all work but the turn signal/brake doesnt and the drivers side running lights dont work but the turn signal/brake does lol. Any advise. Thanks,

Usually when there is odd trailer lighting behavior like this that doesn't seem to make much sense the issue is weak grounds on the trailer. I would go over the grounds for each assembly as well as just make sure all of the wires are currently connected properly.
I attached a help article link on trailer wiring troubleshooting for you to check out as well.
