Trailer lights are a safety feature, and are required by law.

Keep the trailer lights in proper working order.

• Check the trailer lights and wiring for damage or wear.

Repair or replace as needed.

• Check to be sure the wiring harness is secured to the

trailer and does not hang down to the ground.

• Check the trailer light housing assemblies for damage or

leaks. Use silicone or rubber sealant to seal the lens or

harness, as needed, or replace the housing assembly.

Electrical grease will help protect the sockets and prevent

corrosion.

• When replacing bulbs, be sure to use the correct

replacement bulb. A small amount of electrical grease in

the sockets will prevent corrosion.
