Installation of Replacment Tail Lights

Updated 03/28/2016 | Published 03/24/2016

Question:

I purchased a set of LED tail lights for a trailer, the driver side installed easily and works perfectly. The passenger side Im drawing blanks. The trailer has two wires, brown and green. But the new light has three, brown, green and white. What do I do with the white wire thats attached to the light?

I can help you with your trailer light.

You will want to just ground the white wire to a good, clean, metal surface on your trailer frame. One option would be to run a new ground wire from the light back to the front of the trailer and splice it into the main ground wire.

If you continue to have issues, I would be more than happy to continue to troubleshoot this issue with you.
