OK, I got it fixed so here's the update. My trailer has all LED lights and triple axle brakes. I kept focusing on the lights and the trailer connection but I could never find anything wrong. Ground to the lights was good, I put dialectic grease in the connector. What it ended up being was 2 ground wires to two of the six brakes had broke at the grounding lug to the frame of the trailer. I repaired the grounds and now the truck is all happy again. That trailer disconnect warning is sure sensitive. I wish I could choose to deselect the warning in the trailer menu or something. Its all working good for now so hope that helps someone down the road,

Dave
