As a test light, it's useful. In the event that a light does not illuminate, there is no power to that circuit.
Yes, you can test your trailer lights while the vehicle is in park. Make sure you have the ignition key in the "on" This tool has been used by me for years, and it is the easiest and quickest method to check whether the trailer plug on your vehicle is functioning.
Testing the wiring on the vehicle plug is all it does. As long as all tests are green and the trailer lights are not working, the trailer is at fault.

With this feature, my truck thinks it's in tow mode and doesn't engage the idle stop switch when I plug in the trailer circuit tester. As I am using it for a very specific purpose, it is small and convenient for me.

It does not tell you what LEDs correspond to which functions (running lights, brake lights, left turn, right turn, etc). In the event that the unit is working, as mine was (mine worked), the following functions are derived. **Insert your data here**
**Left LED (solid) = running light * Blinking LED (middle) = left turn ** Right LED (blinking) = right turn * Solid LEDs (all three) = brake.
Having looked at several products of this type, I had been wondering whether I should get one or not. found this tester based on reviews and the price was right.
The best part about this tester is that it shows you which light is working (broken, right blinker, left blinker, and backup). It wasn't the case with other products. Each of them lights up separately and you have to figure out which one goes with I would like a $5 discount. I love it!.
As soon as the lights started, I set my phone up to record them. My next step is to get in my truck and drive through all of the lights (turn signals, running, brake lights, You can troubleshoot from there if needed by watching the video to identify which one isn't working. Using a voltmeter to check voltage is also possible this is just quicker. It may be a good idea to bring your old used truck when you make the purchase. Hence, you can prove them wrong on the spot if the dealership sales person says that the trailer lights work. My wish was that it was on the lot with me. My life at home would have been less complicated if it had been available.
While I installed a trailer light harness on my CX5, I did not have a trailer to test it on at the time. I bought this to test my connection. When I tested my connection, all the lights on this tester worked properly. Sadly, I used the harness for the lights on a cargo carrier a few weeks after using the wire harness for the lights. It seems that the lights did not function properly. In the beginning, I thought maybe the carrier lights weren't working, but then I tried them with a working trailer harness and it worked. My installation of the harness in my CX5 also went smoothly. That led me back to the installation of the harness in my original After searching youtube and other online websites for problems that may be causing the lights to malfunction, I discovered that they could be caused by a variety of factors. It occurred to me that the ground was not appropriate. As soon as I fixed where the harness was grounded, everything worked as it should. **** Therefore, you should not rely solely on this plug-in tester to determine whether or not your trailer lights are working.
I ordered the wiring kit online, installed it at our house, and then went to University We went to U-Haul but they did not have one of these testers, so we backed up to a trailer, plugged in and the lights did not work. Apparently I had to rent a trailer with working lights to rent a trailer. My hunch is that I messed up something in my setup. To avoid driving down the U-turn, I instead chose to It took me forever to get to a haul place every time I needed to check my wiring, but I just bought this tool and used it for six months without any issues! We definitely got our money's worth for only $4 bucks! The switch is now in my glove box, so every time I hook up a trailer, I will be able to test my lights easily, letting me know if my lights are still working or if the trailer lights are not.
This was easy to check since I can't work with electricity to save my life! The vehicle was delivered to you ready to drive This hitch is wired for use. A new curt wiring harness was plugged into an outlet at the factory. The 4-step tester is connected to the 4-step tester A light came on at the prong end of the harness when the lights were turned on, and turn signals went left and right. You will have peace of mind for the money you spend. Due to the fact that I was alone, I was not able to check the brakes. Therefore, I'll have to check it once I have a helping hand.
The trailer wiring connection tester will allow you to see if your trailering connections (L and R turn signals, brakes, taillights) are working correctly. The 2018 Chevy 2500HD Crew Cab is fitted with it. One caveat is that on my vehicle, the lights have to be looked at from the bottom since when they are plugged in, they are on the lower left-hand side. It wouldn't be a huge deal, but it would be nice if you could view from the top while.
