As stated above. Can't find any bare wires and all rear lighting is LED. Sometimes they blow right away and sometimes it will go 24 hours without blowing. Anyone else have this problem? Also I replaced the pigtail and plug for the trailer and is still giving problems

Just to clarify whitch fuses? And have you checked grounds?
-
The brake light only fuse. Parking lights and turn/4-ways all work
-
If you are certain it is not any of the light assemblies/bulbs and can not find fault with wiring, then I suspect the switch is shorting.
-
The tail lights are LED. There was 2 ground wires that started to show rubbing and wear. Think they should be replaced?
-
Ditto on the switch and look for a faulty ground
-
Ok next question is.... Where's the switch located? I'll go to a dealer and pick it up and install myself
-
-
Yes fix any wireing that is showing wear. The switch is located on the pedal arm.
-
Do you use the same trailer or do you use multiple trailers? If the fuse is blowing with the same trailer connected, it could be a bad ground or short in the trailer wiring causing it to eventually blow your fuse on your tractor.
