Try unpluging the trailer and stick a probe tester into the connector on your truck, if it blinks, it's in your trailer wiring. Plug the connector back up and probe the blub socket with the blinker on to see if you have power back there. If not, somewhere in the line there is a bare wire grounding out or a splice that has corroded and is stopping power. A lot of times the socket gets flat on the lead tip at the base of the blub and it doesn't make contact, or there is corrosion in that area stopping power.
Hope this helps.
