Troubleshooting Trailer Running Lights Staying On when Vehicle is Turned Off  

I suspect your problem is caused by a damaged or corroded trailer connector. Take a look at your trailer connectors, both the socket on your truck as well as the plug on the trailer. Look for green or white corrosion on the pins or sockets of the…

This sounds like the problem could be a short or possibly ground related but based on what you have said a ground is much less likely. Look for any pinched or frayed wires on the trailer and fix as needed. This could cause a short resulting in…

Hey Kris, thanks for reaching out! You'll already have a good idea of how to adjust the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 #90195, but it would be good to do a bit of a test run once your trailer is loaded just to make sure the brakes are operating safely and…

When a trailer's tail light remains on when the vehicle is shut off, this usually indicates some kind of short in the wiring. I first recommend using a circuit tester like #PTW2993 to check the vehicle side connector. You will want to see if…

This can occur with some Curt wiring harnesses. On a trailer with LED lights the lights may be dimly lit when the vehicle is off because the harness has a direct connection to the battery and there is some power to the 4-Way all the time. If the…

If your trailer has separate turn signals from the brake lights and you want them to remain that way, you will need to use a special converter. On the trailer side, behind the 7-Way, you will attach the Vehicle to Vehicle Taillight Converter,…

There should be five wires on your trailer side connector, a white wire which is for a ground, the yellow/brown and green/brown are for the running lights, a green wire for the right turn/stop light, and a yellow wire for the left turn/stop light…

Start by testing the 7-way on your truck, because the only pin that should be lighting up when you apply the manual override is the pin in the 5 o'clock position, which is the brake controller output wire; there should not be power to the running…

I spoke with my contact at Tekonsha, who is doubtful the controller is the issue. The voltage from the controlleer that's sent to the actuator is very minimal, it's just telling the actuator when and how hard to fire. The actuator is actually…

The pump should come on when you hit the brakes with your Dexter EOH system. I hope you have the Dexter #K71-651 for disc brakes versus the #K71-650 you asked from which will not work with disc brakes because it won't provide enough pressure. If…

First let's talk about capacity since you think you were overloading your Fulton XLT 1801. The reason it says max line pull is 1800 lbs first layer and 800 lbs with a full drum is that for every layer of rope wrapped around the drum the capacity…

There are quite a few differences. The ones you can see easily on the outside are the display and control buttons. The P3, part #90195, uses a multi-color LCD to provide more information where as the Primis IQ uses basic LED numbers like what you…
