According to the manual it says that this occurs when the 7-way is not properly wired. You will need to ensure that 7-way on your vehicle and trailer are wired correctly for the Curt Echo # C51180 to function properly.
I have attached pictures below for both connections. Do not concern yourself so much with the wiring colors but be sure that the correct functions are in their place.
