    frustrated with trailer lights

    Well my brake lights and blinkers both work on my trailer but my overall running lights are not....I figured it was a fuse in my truck, so I replaced the one that was needed, and it worked for about 5 seconds only to blow again, why is the fuse popping?

    You have a short to ground somewhere. You need to start checking wiring for worn insulation.

    Re: frustrated with trailer lights (Tritonbmc)

    I just went down that road and it turned out to be a loose wire in one of my running lights, wire must have been touching the frame and shorting out, blowing fuses, and actually burned my adapter before I fixed it. Definitely a short somewhere.
