Hi guys
My indicator lights have stopped working on my trailer.
Replaced the old globe indicators with nicer led version.
tested the voltages coming out of the car plug, both tail and stop lights get voltage but nothing on the indicators. Is there a fuse blown somewhere?
I have never had a problem before with the indicators in the 6 years I've had the trailer

Any help welcome

Cheers Graeme

Check you have voltage at the pins in the socket on the car. Then check for continuity and voltage at the lights on the trailer. Make sure your earth is good on car and trailer.

Try bending the pins on the traier plug out a bit, ie open up the split a bit wider. After a while they can close up and not make contact.

yes, the car blinkers are working fine just the trailer plug output not seeing any voltage on it

that harness goes to your tail light loom from memory. Maybee a broken wire in the back of the socket. It does happen.
