Question:

I installed this part but the running lights are not working. Blinkers work and brakes work. It is not the trailer. I verified by trying trailer on different vehicle. Any thoughts?

I recommend you start by checking the ground wire that you've installed on the Curt T-Connector Wiring Harness # C56033; often times lighting issues are commonly caused by this. You'll want to make sure that the ground of the harness is firmly attached to a paint and rust free part of the vehicle's frame. If that doesn't seem to get everything working, you'll want to use a circuit tester like the # PTW2993 to see if the harness is providing power to the pin that corresponds to the brown wire. If you're not getting power here, then you'll want to trace it back to the powered converter and see if you're getting power on the brown wire going into the converter.

If you can let me know what you find with those tests I can help you continue trouble shoot this issue.
