The trailer is only a 7x16 enclosed and all led, I would only be lighting the running lights. I could run a tap fuse from something in the passenger kick panel?

What about forscan? been a while since I've opened it and looked at what modules it can see,, but you might be able to fix this yourself correctly and not do a okie fix...

Also, dumb question but you said you checked fuse 99, did you check the fuses for the trailer module? Should be a couple under the hood .

Same here. I have 4 trailers with factory LED lighting. No problems. Plus a boat trailer that I installed new Harbor Freight LED lights on. It doesn't seem to be a problem for the truck.

I have been meaning to purchase the adaptor for forscan and try and learn about it. I'm not to great with computer stuff, I just wanted to adjust tire psi

If anyone is playing around with forscan, can you check to see if there is a trailer control module that can be changed? maybe trailer running lights are not turn on? wow wouldn't that be nice!

Yes I check all the fuses that are labelled "trailer" in the owners manual , the mini's and those square ones... all good.
