Expert Reply:
It sounds like your clearance lights are run to the stop/turn signal circuit instead of being run to the running light circuit.
I would recommend you verify the wiring of your trailer and make sure that you have the correct circuit run to your clearance lights. The running light circuit is typically a brown wire and the circuit right next to the ground circuit that is jacketed on the 4-way.
