    Trailer light ???

    I have 07 ranger trail with the LEDs. Took boat out 1st time today and the brake light along with turn signal would not work on one side, but the running light worked. Will I need a new light or just a wiring problem im over looking? Thanks

    Re: Trailer light ??? (drewboy32)

    I just had similar problem with trailer lights, I found three issues.
    #1 my 05 has a ground wire on the swing away tounge, I added a ground jumper from there back to the fixed portion of the trailer. ( this is the biggest problem with trailer lights)
    #2 one of the lights was bad (ordered it from napa) they have great book for "trucklite" if that is still the style on newer boats.
    #3 all the ground screw holes were most likely drilled before "road armor" is sprayed, and therefore the screws dont always make contact with the steel I drilled and tapped 1/4-20 s.s. screws and nylon nuts on all ground connections

    I have never had trailer lights work so well
