    Is there a fuse box or circut breakers on a 2012 Manac DropDeck trailer? I was replacing burnt marker light and made a short while wiring the new cables (I forgot I left the lights on ). Now both front markers have no power. Bulbs are ok. I checked everything under the trailer and I don't think there is anything like a fuse box there. Any ideas?

    The bulkhead connector on the trailer should have built in circuit breakers. The kind that reset themselves. One could be bad, or it's possible you already had a sketchy connection back there and the short finally opened it up. Worth taking a look at any rate. Truck Pro and the like carry replacements, you don't have to go to the dealer.

    Thank you guys. It was the fuse in the truck on the trailer clearance lights circut. As usually, the most obvious thing got overlooked.
