Trailer keeps blowing lights?
Seems like every time I hook up my flat car trailer, the rear lights blow. Does this sound like a bad ground?
The trailer is now a few years old with only a few thousand miles. Any suggestion on what to do as far as routine service.
Thanks

First of all, I am not a wiring expert, but I have worked with car trailers before. Your problem could be caused by any number of things, including the ground. I have never worked with this particular problem before. On my trailer I had a side marker light short out and all of the trailer lights would not work properly. The way to solve this problem would be to buy an electrical tester - the kind with the light - to see where you have power and where you don't.

Are you talking about the bulb of the fuse blowing. If it is the fuse check to make sure there are not any cuts in the sheething around the wire, this could be causing a short.
