Check power to my trailer brake

The trailer light are connected to you vehicles wiring. Turn brake running. If the tail light are on on your vehicle you start checking wiring. If the tail lamps do not work check fuses in vehicle. If the trailer is hooked up and the fuse blows again check trailer. If it blows agin without trailer check vehicle wiring.

the wires to the electric brakes at wheels , I had this problem on my travel trailer and it turned out due to corrosion at connectors at wheels the power wasn't getting to wheels one other thing to ck is trailer plug , it turns out not all mfg wire there plugs the same , try to obtain a diagram from mfg for both trailer and truck , compare them for any differences

It's a very good possibility that it is the trailer. You say that it is new, is it a brand new trailer or just new to you? If it is brand new, and you bought it from a place that deals with trailers, then I would say take it back and have them look over everything. If that's not an option, then it's time to pull out the circuit tester and start checking wires. See if you are getting power to the Blue wire on the trailer, and if so is there power all the way to the brakes. You will need someone to push on the brake pedal while checking the wires. If the power is good all the way to the brakes, then you will need to pull the drums and inspect the brake shoes for wear, and condition of the the brake components. If this is a used trailer, then it would be a good idea to do this anyway so that you can also inspect and grease the bearings. If everything looks good, then the brakes might just need to be adjusted via the slot on the back side of the brake housing. If no power is seen in the blue wire, check the Red wire (12v Aux/charging), if it doesn't have power, then you more than likely have a Ground issue. This can easily be checked by hooking the trailer to the truck (hitch). Both use a chassis ground, and will use the hitch itself as the ground connection, though it is not a good idea to use it as the ground point.

there will be only 1 power wire for the brake lights as they are connected .together. What you are looking at are the indicator lights (1 left wire and 1 right wire)

Take a 12 volt test light... the kind that has a spring loaded clip to hold the probe into the wire, and insert it into the wire just before the trailer plug, vehicle side. (Blue I think) If there is a connection, the brake should see it and you should have an indicator light. When you activate the brake the test light should lite up. If not, move up to the brake actuator and test the blue wire. If there is nothing at the actuator, check the black wire. It is power to the controller. If no power there, check fuses again. If it does pick it up at the plug, connect the trailer and test the trailer itself. First ground to the trailer and then to the truck. Most problems are ground wire related. Then move to the axle and test it there. For the brakes to work, and even show on the indicator, there has to be a ground and power to the brakes themselves. There are 2 wires to each brake... a ground and a power. Test across both wires to make sure you have power and ground. You can also hook another trailer to your truck or another truck to your trailer. Lights can work through trailer ball ground. Brakes can't. leave the trailer unhooked from the trailer and hook the wiring up and test the lights. That usually will indicate a good or faulty ground. Also make sure there is a GOOD ground to the truck frame/body. Also try http://www.etrailer.com/faq-wiring.aspx. They have a great website with lots of info. Hope this helps. Mike
