Thank you for the help! In my case, every fuse tested as they should. However, the 15 amp fuse was physically the wrong size. Once we replaced it, the running lights worked! 😊

Originally thought it was my trailer wiring. They were getting worn and brittle. Had a neighbor plug his truck into my trailer and everything worked. So I knew it was my truck was the problem. Came upon your KZbin video and that was it. 15 amp fuse. If it keeps blowing maybe my trailer wiring is a problem LOL. But you got me going in the right direction. Thank you

I screwed with the trailer and the connection and had just made an appointment at a dealer to trace the problem in the truck when I thought I'd check U Tube. My truck was a bit newer than yours, so different panel configuration, but I found the relevant fuse and sure enough, it was blown. $1 fix. Thanks.

I took my trailer to a boat shop; they looked at it but concluded that they couldn't fix it as they don't do that kind of work. So after watching your video I replaced the fuse, and then I replaced some wiring that got pinched and "Poof" it works great. THANK YOU!!

There's a KZbin for EVERYTHING! Thanks man. My trailer cord got severed when it got pinched on the ball last week and shorted everything out. After replacing the cord, I still did not have all my lights. I found a couple fuses in the panel on the side of the dash that were marked TRLR and one of them was blown. When I picked up my new trailer today, I had the same symptom you had. Turn and brake light worked fine but no marker lights. It's dark out now but I would bet a dollar that the fuse under the hood is blown and it will be a simple fix. THANK YOU!!!

Thanks, worked for me -- solved my problem with 5th wheel trailer lights not working. Replaced the 15 amp fuse on my 2004 Chev Silverado 3/4 ton diesel. A conductive wire connected to the "pins" at 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. on the trailer plug in turned the running lights on (indicating a blown fuse in the truck) -- the trailer has its own battery. Your posting showed me which fuse to pull and replace.
