    Trailer Brake Electrical Issue

    The Tekonsha P3 does that, however, I am under the impression that using the manual slider overrides that and applies full braking. I hooked up the Fiver to my truck and rolled forward in my driveway with the slider fully engaged and the brakes did not stop the unit. I will do a full road test...

    Trailer Brake Electrical Issue

    The trailer brakes on my 2015 Crossroads Sunset Trail seemed pretty weak so I decided to look into them. The brakes only have about 1000 miles or so on them, so they are fairly new. My Tekonsha controller showed just over 13 volts being delivered and 8 amps being drawn. Physical inspection of...

    5th Wheel 7 pin electrical issue

    Ok, I got it figured out. Thank you guys for all your help, especially Kirk. I pulled all the fixtures (what fun) and started testing each one.

    5th Wheel 7 pin electrical issue

    I will pull all the bulbs. With all the bulbs out, there should be no continuity, correct? Then just replace bulbs one at a time and see which one pops the fuse?

    5th Wheel 7 pin electrical issue

    I was blowing a fuse on the vehicle side and none of my running or tail lights were working. I initially checked continuity on the trailer side 7 pin connector and found continuity between the ground and running lights pins.

    5th Wheel 7 pin electrical issue

    I have a short on the 7 pin connector wiring. I took apart the junction box and disconnected the 7 pin connector and found that the connector is fine, it is in the trailer wiring (2015 Crossroads Sunset Trail 5th wheel). I have continuity between ground and the brake lights, ground and running...

    Possible electrical damage

    I replaced the converter and then took my old one apart. Everything looks good except this capacitor. It got blown out. Thank goodness that's all that blew.

    Possible electrical damage

    I was gonna crack it open and look, but it is riveted. I ordered a new one, better safe than sorry. After I replace it I will open the other one up and see what's happening inside. Thanks for the quick responses.
