All the 5th wheel tail and clearance lights were working fine when....i wanted to wire a backup camera for my 1996 Glendale Golden Falcon using the reverse/backup light for the power source. Trouble is it didn't have a backup light in the tail light units, however the trailer harness had the wire dead-ending at the trailer's 5th wheel hitch plug. I ran a single wire to the rear and got a deal on a set of used LED tail lights that had backup lights/tail/and signals. All LED's worked fine when touched on a battery. I also wanted to connect a small side signal light at the rear side quarter. All lights formerly were incandescant bulbs. Running a few new wires for the rear/side signals, using power from the tail light signals was fine, but when I powered up I had signal and backup, but no tail lights. The LED's used a separate positive and negative wires. Checking tail light polarity with an ohm meter found 12 volts with a negative sign in front, signal and backup lights showed regular 12 volts. Connecting the harness to the truck blew the tail light fuse. My Chevy has separate fuses for the trailer lights. No camera has been hooked yet, still trying to chase the wiring problem. More over, the ohm meter indicates a short at the wiring plug intermittently, sometimes working, sometimes OK. I've only fiddled with the wiring by pulling the tail lights feeding a foot or so of wire, nothing else. Can LED lights be connected into the line with the old incandescent fixtures? Tail light power good, disconnect, then shorts to negative. Wow, I'm puzzled!!
