Hi, not sure how to post this as a new question, but, on my m932a2 I have no truck brake lights. I check the usual problems, I have power to the switch but when I jump the two wires the lights still don't work, so does that automatically mean there is a broken wire from the switch back or do they share a ground separate to just the brake light circuit or is the positive passed from one light to the next and could fail at that connection, ECT.
AAAND... I also don't have trailer brake lights, but here's where it gets very interesting. My trailer socket corroded and with none available (with out searching very hard) I decided to convert it to a normal civilian 7 pin plug. My first thought was maybe if I put all led lights in the trailer it could be plugged directly in without the converter. But for now I still use the converter, with a new civilian 7 pin end on it. Ok, so now what I need to know there is if the truck brake lights don't work will the trailers automatically not work as well, or would they. And let's say they would. What do they typically use as the trigger for the brake light relay in the converter. They used the park light (pin E) as a general source of power to the converter, pin B as left turn TRIGGER, pin J as right turn TRIGGER, pin K as "auxiliary" but is actually unterminated in the converter. Im not exactly sure what would be "brake lights trigger"
Sorry for the long post or if I didn't post it in the right place.
