I had a similar thing happen and also figured that it was the ground. The problem is, every time I tried to MAKE SURE the ground was secure, nothing changed. I hooked it up and drove around the yard a couple of times (Dad's farm) mainly out of frustration and the driving apparently scraped enough rust or something off the trailer ball to make a connection. I have no idea if it was coincicence or if it was really something to it, but it works now and I am not changing a thing on that trailer until it's time to sell the boat! Blew a fuse in the vehicle in the process too; you might want to check that. To verify that it isn't the vehicle, try another vehicle/trailer combination.
