Tim,

In your question, you state that you are getting output from the controller, but aren't reading any at the trailer connector, is that correct? That blue output wire is a straight run back to the trailer connector, with no inline fuses. Your trailer connector might be corroded, preventing the signal from getting through. Try using a circuit tester on the blue output wire behind the connector, to see if you have power there.

Thank you for your question,

Mike
