home at last but have a few questions

[jwells]

I am having trouble with trailer brakes and lights. Dealer said a five plug would over ride the breaks when in reverse and it is not I have to do manually. I have breaks turn signals and break lights but no running lights. I bought a new pigtail and plugged it in but still not working I guess it is in my truck not the trailer. Anyone else had anything like this?

They are surge brakes right ?

Could be a fuse in the tow vehicle. If memory serves me correctly Chevys have a separate set of fuses for the trailer wiring and the vehicles normal lights.

Yes, chevy has separate fuses for running lights, brake lights, and signals for trailer under hood in the box.
