    Hey guys so my tractor tail lights and trailer tail lights don’t work when I plug in my trailer. When I unplug it comes back on? All the fuses are good. Any idea?

    I think Petes use auto resetting breakers, so the trailer might be shorting out the tail light circuit feed from the truck and popping the breaker. See if this problem follows that particular trailer with another truck, or if the truck has this problem with every trailer.
