So my newer M1082 came with LED lights all around. When I got it both tailights worked fine. About a month later I hooked up to it and the right one had half of the LEDs working but after a minute or so all of the LEDs began working on their own. This light did that every time thereafter. Today I hooked up the trailer and no taillights (all side/corner markers worked) for about a minute and then half of the right one started working and upon closer examination the left had all LEDs working but real dim. With blinkers the left ones were a tad brighter than the taillights, but way unacceptable by DOT or me. About a minute later the right one started working completely with all of it's LEDs (on both taillights and turn signals). After I got nowhere fiddling with the ground wire and it's bolt on the left one, a minute later it majically started working, but only half of it's LEDs. It never did recover to having all of it's LEDs working. I gotta drive it tomorrow, pulling out at 6 am driving in dark for an hour and a half before daylight, so for now I will be greatful for a halflit taillight. However, this is really pretty uncool wondering if they'll work each time I use the trailer.
Has anyone else had this with these tailights?
Has anyone had issues with the box that the interconnect hooks into on this trailer?
Are the lights prone to failure in cold weather?
Also, my truck has all incandescent lights but the finned flasher.
