Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Trailer Right Turn Won't Working?
Not working at plug.
I see there is right turn/stop relay.
Does this relay ever go bad?
All other trailer lights work.
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: No Right Turn Signal On Factory Trailer Harness
I'm still fighting tow harness problems on my '01 F 250. I started by replacing the 7-way pig tail with a new one which didn't work. Then I undid all the butchering of the harness that was done previously. The factory harness had scotch locks all over it that were used to splice in a 6-way and a 7-way into the bed. I liquid taped all the nicks in the wires. Then I checked for power at the factory harness end where the pigtail plugs in. I have park/running lights, and one of the ports flashes for the left turn signal/flashers/stop lamps. I got rained on before I could check further up the wire. If I have no power to the wire further up is there another place to check?

2013 F250 XL with factory towing package.
My camper and boat trailer do not have turning signal or brake lights when plugged into the round seven pin trailer connector. I have tried both the connector in the bed and under the bumper. I've also connected the trailers to other trucks and the lights work fine so I know the problem is in my truck.
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: How To Know Trailer Connected
How does the truck know that there is a trailer connected?
With my cab-over camper and no trailer as soon as I go to reverse the back up alarm goes off. I thought I would wire in a marker light to the trailer brake circuit but that didn't do it, maybe not enough resistance? The truck still says no trailer.
How I can fool the system so that when I load the camper it looks like a trailer to the truck?
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: OEM 7 Way Trailer Connector Broken Off?
Well, it seems the cover on my trailer connector got broken off. The cover locks the trailer plug into the truck side. The connector on the truck is/was supplied by Ford. Now the dealer say NLA, only 2005 and up. Truck is 99 F250 SD. Plug is 4/7 way. Where can I locate a direct plug-in replacement? I do not want to be cutting and splicing.

I am looking at getting my new truck, my 05 F350 6.0, with factory trailer brake controller, all set up for a gooseneck. I was wondering if there was an OEM kit to add a trailer connection plug to the inside of the bed? If there is, what are the part number(s)?

Went to hook up my trailer today and both the trailer plugs do not work. I checked the fuses and all is well. They worked fine the other day but now they don't work at all. I confirmed this by hooking up to another trailer and nothing. Also got another truck and went to trailers and it worked.
My truck has 19000 miles so it's practically new. I have never seen this. I called dealer but they can't see it til next week and I need the trailer brakes and lights. Where could I look or what could the problem be?
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2003 F250 - Front Hubcaps Backing Off Slightly
I've been noticing that one of my front hubcaps has been backing off slightly. I tap it back on and it's good for a while. But lately I'm noticing that I have to tap it back on more often. I took it off today, thinking that I might need a new one. The part number on the inside is IC34-IA096-AB. It's on my 2003 Ford F250 4x4.
I pulled the opposite cover and tried it on the side I'm having trouble with and noticed the same thing. Upon further inspection, I noticed that the chrome plated trim piece that covers the steel rim has tabs that should be flat to the rim. I'm referring to the area where the trim piece ends, near the lug nuts. On the one that I'm not having trouble with, it's flush/flat all around. But on the one I'm having trouble with, some of the ends are not flush to the rim. That is why the hubcap is not seating in those areas. I can see the gap and I can also push down on that section. It's almost as if that trim piece is separating from the rim? I tried using a punch and giving it a couple of whacks with a hammer, but it doesn't press it back to being flush with the rim.
Why would the end of that trim piece that covers the whole wheel lift up on the ends? Is there a way to get it to sit flat?
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: F250 - Thump While Backing Up - Loss Of Reverse And Park
I was driving my 1999 F250 5.4 Triton last week, after noticing a thump while backing my small boat down the ramp (sounded like u joint) I went and parked. When I got back in the truck it starts fine but when I shift into reverse, it's staying in drive, anywhere I put my shift lever..... It's in drive! I even noticed that even all the way up into park it feels like it's in drive, but with something holding it back. If I give it gas while in park it will go forward! I have tightened the two torx screws under dash, pulled cable off and tried shifting by hand (clicks like switching gears, but still in drive) pulled pan, everything looked good there, fluid is nice and red, smells good, no metal in pan? It's the 4r100od tranny.

The door on my trailer plug is broken. I can't seem to find just the door. Need to get one without having to buy the whole plug assembly?

So the other weekend I hooked up to my buddys landscaping trailer, everything was fine until I plugged in the harness, No Lights...no big deal cuz it wasn't much of a drive, but I gotta haul a boat tomorrow a little ways and Id like to be legal.
I need cleaning my trailer plugs. What is the best way to clean the terminals on the small 4 prong? The big plug is fine, just a little dirt inside the cover, but I am still going to clean the contacts and put di-electric grease on them.
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Trailer Brake Controller Install
I've just bought a new 2016 SD xlt. The only extra I wanted that is missing is the factory trailer brake controller. The dealer told me it had to be programmed. I was expecting plug and play and planned to do it myself till they told me that. Is this true?
View 14 RepliesFord Super Duty (1999-2016) :: No Power To Trailer Light Bulb?
A week ago last Saturday I bought a 2006 F250 Lariat Crew Cab with the 6.0 and 4WD. The truck is really clean and only has 68,000 miles on it. Here's my question: I needed to tow a boat today and I discovered I have no power, at all, at the trailer light plug receptacle. Nothing at the 7-pin nor the flat-4. I looked through the manual and checked every fuse that had the word trailer associated with it and I can also feel the turn signal relays clicking with the flashers on.
Am I missing something really simple or do I just need to follow the wire harness from the back and look for something that is not connected? It seems kind of weird for it to be just....dead.

The pigtail from my bumper mounted 7-pin to the factory connector is all hacked up from the previous owner so I'm looking to replace that pigtail. Also wondering if there should be 2 connectors down there to add a connector for my gooseneck or do I need to splice another universal 7-pin into the bumper light pigtail? Also, is there another (preferably slightly cheaper) option besides e-trailer for such a connector?

This past weekend I loaded up my 3 horses on my trailer and found out going down a hill that my trailer brakes aren't coming on and tracked this down to a problem with the truck. Need to troubleshoot this before taking it to a dealer to check wiring problems for shorts somewhere.
What doesn't work: trailer brakes not getting any power to the brakes. When I first pulled out the truck had error message popping up saying Trailer wiring fault and once in a while that would disappear then come back on and once or twice went to Trailer disconnected. My friends hooked up my trailer to their truck and the brakes worked on the trailer.
What's working: turn signals and brake lights coming on in the trailer.
What we checked so far: fuses, sprayed truck plug with wd40 on the pins. The brake pedal not activating the brakes and tried just the slider bar on the ford integrated brake control box.
Background: brakes were working fine back in October. December hauled them a short distance and didn't notice any braking problem but road was mainly flat and when coming down a small grade they seemed fine but I was going slow also. Back in January, I took the truck to a Firestone to get general maintenance work done on it including truck brakes checked for wear and tear and they had to replace the truck battery.
Where does the truck ground wire go to in the truck to ground it out? All that I can find is that it has to go to some pure metal, no painted surface but can't find anywhere on where to check this out on the truck to see if it is still making contact. Could the guys at Firestone have not hooked something back up or knocked it. The last thing that I would like to look at before getting the wires all tested. I have a 2008 F250, gas
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2004 - Front End Noise When Hit Bumps Or Backing Out Or Entering A Driveway

View 3 RepliesFord Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2005 F250 - No Trailer Running Lights
I have a 2005 Ford F-250. I have checked power to the rear harness and all is good except for the tail/running lights.
Is there a fuse for the tail lights? I have checked the manual and don't see one called out. And the relays under the hood are labeled stop lights/turn signals and those are working fine.
I will see if I can trace the brown wire from the rear harness backwards, but it may be a simple fuse.
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2001 F250 - Trailer Harness Reverse?
Any info if the "Aux" terminal on the trailer harness wiring on '01 F250s is for reverse lighting? I'd like to put some on my stock trailer. Also, is the "12v" terminal feed switch operated or hot always?
View 2 RepliesFord Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2005 F250 - Trailer Running Lights Always On
I have a 2005 ford f250 with the factory installed brake controller and towing package,until recently all was well,I tow a fairly large travel trailer and last time I hooked the trailer to the truck I noticed the running lights on the trailer were lit, I checked to make sure that I did not have the parking lights turned on or the headlights. I did find posts about the running lights not working and was surprised to find there is a relay somewhere on the central junction fuse block that was integral to the cfb and not user serviceable. Could my problem be that this relay failed in the closed position or am I not going in the right direction in my quest to find this problem. Also looking for a diagram of where this relay is located on the central junction fuse block? I would also consider doing a work around solution rather than having to replace the entire fuse block.
