Diamondpilot, Chevy ( in 08 ) leaves the fuse out and does not connect two wires under the hood. ( In my 04 I just had to put the fuse in. ) There is one hidden behind and to the right of the fuse box and the other is down by the steering column where it comes through the firewall. You must connect these to metric studs in front of the fuse box. There is a 40 amp stud and a 30 amp stud. I installed the brake controller and added the fuse and connected the 2 wires in front of the fuse box under the hood. The receptacle pin gets 12v off & 14v while the truck is running. The receptacle is wired properly and all the pins do what they are supposed to.
I did not buy this trailer new & it turns out that the pigtail is bad. I can not get continuity on the 12 volt charge circuit. I suspect that the problem is in the 7 pin plug connections. I have checked all 6 wires in the pigtail and 5 of them read good. The 12 volt charging ckt is bad. It's good from the battery to the harness. It's bad from this point to the truck. I am going to cut the plug off to see if that's the problem. The wire is either melted or not connected inside the plug.
Thanx for all the help and thoughts guys!!!!!
