If you have a converter changing 5 wires to 4 I have heard of those going bad. Do all of the lights on your truck work with the trailer disconnected? If yes there probably isn't a problem with the truck wiring. So if you have no converter box and the truck lights all work I would say there is a problem with the trailer wiring. Whenever I have trailer light problems the first thing I do is measure voltage on each pin of my wiring harness with only one lighting option enabled. This should tell you if there is a problem with the wiring leading to the trailer. If you have a 4 wire system your turn signal wires double as your brake wires. If one of those was shorted to ground (on trailer side) I think what your seeing would happen.

Hope this helps,

MM
