  • I found a broken/corroded wire on the trailer light harness. It appears someone has done some wiring work and did not repair the wiring well.

    I had been chasing a very simular problem on my o2 f150. after 2 minutes of your video i paused it and went to look under my hood. My fuse box was there so I found the manual and quickly determined that my problem was a simple 10 amp fuse. Though our problems were quite different in the end your approach and video was instrumental in quickly solving my problem. I cannot say thank you enought.

    Glad to see you back on RUclips. You're doing the right thing taking time for the family. If we have to sacrifice by not getting to see as many videos as we were used to, then that's what we have to do. I almost always enjoy these videos and usually learn something new to boot.

    I don’t know if you can give me any sort of help on an issue with a 2007 F250. Right stop/turn stuck on. Tried pulling all the fuses and relay. No change. Tried same trailer with my Ranger and it works just fine.

    What about if the trailer lights work fine but the turn signal and brake lights on truck do not?
    3rd brake light works . Truck tail lights are on but nothing when I got brake or turn signal. When trailer is hooked up the trailer lights work as they should. So I have to keep a trailer hooked up till I figure this out. 2001 power stroke. F250.
    Any help appreciated

    Hi Daniel, I have a 2003 F150 w/a 7-pin plug I'm replacing. I've tested all the wires (green, yellow, blue, orange, black/grn trcr, and white) and identified what they do, except for the black w/grn trcr. If you had the same arrangement, an figured out what that one does, could you please tell me? Thanks, Tim

    Hey Dan, other than buying an add-on part (trailer plug) or override every time, is there a way to disable Auto Start-Stop for a 2015/16 F-150?

    Do you happen to know where the 12V auxiliary power is sourced from? Is there a relay or fuse in the same location under the hood or elsewhere? I have an '04 Ex 6.0 PS and every other pin has the appropriate voltage on my 7 pin connector except the 1 o'clock location for 12V aux power.

    I know I'm a few years late, but I'm chasing the same problem now on a 2002 Harley Davidson F150. That's a lot of corrosion in your wiring. That's what happens when people use that kind of connectors. I like to use the one's with heat shrink tubing to keep the moisture out. Thanks for the video, I'm gonna do what you did and hope that I get lucky lol.

  • @throttlebottle5906
    @throttlebottle5906 6 лет назад

    after-market, "garbagey" who'd have guessed!
    just use self sealing/heat crimp butt splices/heat shrink.
    alternate force good silicone ssealenat through from side to sid e then heat shrink it down. one cured no water zone :0

    Daniel, It looked like the ground strap at that under hood relay block you removed the relay from was nearly broken in half. You may want to check that before it causes other issues.

    How much would a fix like this cost in a shop of you would have to guess? Having trailer lights issues on the 08 ford f150

    • @DanielJaegerFilms
      @DanielJaegerFilms  4 года назад +1

      Give them a couple hours to diagnose it and another hour to repair, I’d say around $300 if you took it to a shop.

    Anytime I see weird trailer lighting connections, I immediately suspect someone has tried to adapt the wiring to fit an older Airstream with a non-standard wiring scheme.
