Hi,
For some reason when I connect my Expedition to my boat trailer only the right turn signal on the trailer works. When we connected my neighbors F150 to it, all the lights work correctly. Can someone please help? Thanks.

i would say maybe a bad fuse to the trailer sytem from inside the expedition if it all works on the other truck. maybe a bad contact on the traile plug on your truck . need alittle more info is it a 4 way flat or 7 way plug and is it factory or aftermarket

The trailer is a flat 4-way, my Exp is 7 way factory. Which fuses would they be? We used the same 4way-7way adapator on the F150 that I use on my Exp.

I don't have a manual. Is the fuse located in the black box under the hood on the left side. Which fuse or relay would it be? Thanks for you help.
