    Hi,
    Not an electrical wizard, but it sounds like it could be a ground wire. Check your ground connections, clean them up with a wire brush and re-attach them.

    Remove the light assembly from the base and see if the wire is still attached to the back. On my trailer, the wire was too short and when I retracted the tongue, it pulled the wire out of the back of the light. The rest of the lights would work until the wire would touch the inside of the trailer tube and take out the fuse on the tow vehicle. After locating, I added a foot of wire to both front side marker lights with no further issues.

    Check where the ground is attached beside the light itself. Some of them are attached with rivets and they get loose.
