Trailer light test

I like the feature ford did to check trailer lights. But, it starts when you hit the button. By the time I get back to the trailer it’s half done. Ford needs to add a delay to give one time to walk back to the trailer.

Turn on my lites and 4 way flashers. Still on after I walk all the way around. Works every time as opposed to the fancy feature you are describing. But I do have to turn one switch and push 1 button.

Like LMB stated it cycles through the sequence probably 5 times. Wait for it.

And this method works for ANY vehicle.
Been doing it this way for 35+ years.

Same here.

Had no idea you could do that through the app.
