TOP TIPS FOR REWIRING YOUR TRAILER
If you’re constantly bending over your trailer, trying to ascertain where the recurring faults are and why the lights have stopped working, it might be time to replace the wiring on your trailer. Modern LED trailer lights are less prone to failure and tend to have much longer lives than traditional trailer bulbs and, what’s more, they’re not going to break the bank. Here are our tips that will assist you when you decide to rewire your trailer.
GET GROUNDED
Never rely on the coupler connection as your grounding but rather secure the ground wire with a lock washer, a bolt and nut directly to the frame of the trailer. If the trailer has been painted, scrape away some of the paint until the bare metal is reached before attaching the ground wirer securely. Paint in any exposed metal after the ground wire is secured to stop rust.
