help with lights...

There are no fuses in the TM for the clearance (running) lights so I suspect you have a blown fuse in your TV that you have not found yet. Check for voltage to ground on the Tv barg connector on the clearance lights pin when you have the TV lights on to verify -- i suspect you will not see any voltage there.

where would the fuse be for this??? I checked under the hood in the TV and pulled out each and every one of the fuses and all are fine. is there another fuse pannel in the TV that I am not aware of? more importantly are there any fuses typically on or near the 7 pin connector? thanks

I don't know anything specific about your (brand?)TV (Fuse locations should be in your TV manual)

In general:

My Tv has two fuse panels, one under the hood, one next to the drivers side door hinge.

I have not seen any fuses on or near any 7-pin Barg connector.

If you are not experienced with how to troubleshoot the electrical problem, maybe you should consider taking it to a RV shop or get a friend with electrical knowledge to help you.

Good luck with it!

If the brake and backup lights on the trailer work then the problem could be in the Bargman connector itself, check the pins and the socket. If you have voltage to the car end of the connector start working back along the line into the trailer. Somewhere something has come loose or broken.
A favorite place for problems are the wire nuts TM uses. Take them off, inspect for corrosion and replace with new. If your handy, solder the connector. There are also some much better connecters that you can buy that are waterproof crimp on type.
