Trailer wiring problem

wote:
Well..
I removed any proof of existance of a Front Trailer hookup

The test lights are still not doing what they are supposed to.

I assume it cant be a ground, because then none of the lights would
work at all... (Right?)

The only thing Im left with is:

A) Bad Hoppy T-Connector
B) Bad truck.

(shrug) Any Ideas? 94 Ford Ranger.

Actually, it can still be a bad ground. Check all bulbs and all
connections to the trailer and clean the corrosion under them. I had a
very similar problem and made similar inncorrect assumpions regarding
no lights would work if the ground was bad. But an old salt convinced
me to go over all the connections to the trailer and it fixed my
lights. I knew it was in my trailer and not my truck as my truck
worked fine with another trailer. So don't go messing with your truck
until you try this.
