    Hello everyone,

    I am having trouble with my parking lights not working on my trailer. All other lights function properly. All turn signal and brake lights work, but no running lights? Any suggestions?

    A fuse would only effect running lights? I will check the fuse have listed. Thanks for the feedback.

    Yes, it's a stand alone circuit (towing tail)

    Check the trailer also. Find the cause of the fuse doing it's job.

    Thanks again. Is this fuse located in the drivers footwell or under the hood?

    Thanks again for the help. Found fuse blown and replaced. Running lights work again.

    Did you check the trailer wiring?

    I created this problem flat towing a jeep that had wiring issues. Finally gave up and bought a harbor freight magnetic towing light set. So yes in a roundabout way.
