Re: Car trailer lights??
Dealing with the same thing right now... Replaced all trailer lights with LED's back in February, and everything was perfect until a month ago. Started blowing the trailer parking lamps fuse in the truck. I found a section where it looked like the wires may have rubbed inside a metal channel, so I insulated them, problem fixed. ...for about a week. Replaced that section of wiring, problem fixed. ...for about five minutes ...PER run time! That I *really* don't get. Trailer lights work, then going down the road, they'll go out, then blink on if you go over a bump (for awhile, then they quit completely). Jiggle what you will, nothing. Next day, turn on the switch, and you've got lights again, without touching anything. I could understand something overheating over time and blowing a fuse if something was shorting, but how do they just stop working w/o blowing the fuse?
Same deal, though... all the other lights work. It's just a parking lamp issue. Been turning the parking lights on in the race car if it's dark on the way home.
Thinking I'm going to have to do a complete re-wire from scratch to solve this one. Hateful!
