Help!! We purchased our 1st Trailmanor - 1998 2720SL last Jan. On our second trip our break lights and turn signals on the trailer only quit after we plugged in and drove off and the 40 amp fuse in our P/U truck blew. I figure there is a short somewhere. We found the fuse and replaced it and it happened the next time we plugged in and drove off. Since the closest TM dealer is 3 hrs away, and the locals are so expensive, I'm hoping someone here may be able to give me and my husband some trouble shooting hints. My husband had some electrical training years ago and has a meter. Would greatly appreciate any tips!!
