    I think my 7 way pg tail stopped charging or is it my trailer? is there a relay/fuse on my truck and where it located?

    I'm no expert but if your turn signals, running lights, break lights and surge brakes on the trailer are working I'd think it's your trailers battery or connections to your battery. Maybe the converter?

    Thanks for your reply - If I wasn't still traveling then I could trouble shoot this easier. I was just hoping someone else had encountered this problem to help narrow the problem down.

    Check your owners manual and find the fuse for charging the trailer. They commonly blow out when your trailer has a short in the charging circuit.

    It's fuse 9 in the fuse holder on your truck under the hood. It should be a 30 amp fuse tmp_11724-index.9-2056621146.gif IIRC.
