Trailer wiring


Any body have a schematic for these relays? No left turn signal on trailer can't make sure sense off it. Assuming turn signal switch is involved.

Hence my confusion then. What are their specific purpose. In the quest for a print, Subford ID'd them as a deciding factor if the truck had the tow harness.

I have no continuity from the fuse to the C149 connector

One is a trailer power feed/trailer battery charge relay, the other is for the trailer reverse lights.
