    quick question. If my right turn signal on tractor turns on but fades away can it make my trailer right turn signal not work at all or is it another issue ?
    Trailer right turn used to work but I had to change the nose plug on my trailer because the screw for the ground wires on the old was stripped causing all lights not to work.

    I've had the truck signal light stay on solid, it was caused by a screw in the light cord receptacle on the trailer falling out and shorting a couple of pins.

    Mine has been fading since one of the steering fluid hoses busted. I replaced the hose but couldn’t find exactly where the steering fluid created a short or something causing the signal to fade out
