trailer running lights woes

Well..I've got the relays installed..and still no running lights..the brown wire(running lights)at the round connector has no power..Any Ideas?? Thanks

You have to make sure and run a ground wire. If you are using a 5 pin flat the white wire has to be grounded.

I have flat 4 connector...the turn signals and brake lights work....
maybe I've gotten a bad relay...this is ticking me off...

There is a 10 amp fuse (red) in the fuse box on the passenger side under the hood that may be bad. Check it out, I found it after not getting any tail lights on my boat trailer. Brand new boat trailer (Bayliner) had a pinched wire that was blowing the fuse.

Thanks Fab ...I'll check it out ..I have check out a couple of fuses but I'll go through all the 10 amp ones..

If the fuse has a # marked next to it, look for #32. The wiring diagram indicates this.

Thanks Tony..I guess I need a wiring diagram...

I've got the trailer lights fixed..It was a fuse labeled illumination on the fuse box...
Thanks everyone for Your input....

I Did not think I would of needed a wiring diagram till the truck went off of warranty. When I had my problem, I crawled under the truck following the hitch wiring to the fuse box and got lucky.

You're welcome, Fab.
