Put the right turn signal on and the right front bulb should now be flashing and you should get a pulsing 12v at the GREEN wire. If this doesn't happen, then there is a problem upstream from your trailer relay -- either a wiring fault or the turn signal switch is bad, or maybe something else. But that's your first diagnostic test. If you can't pass this test, then there's no point in actually removing the trailer relay.

OK - I'll give that a try first but I went ahead and ordered a relay from Summit. I think it was only a little more than $8.
Thanks Patrick and Kevin |
