I would recommend having Ford check the IBC and the connection to trailer. While I do sometimes get the "Trailer Disconnect", it only happens when I brake and the brakes have always worked. It may be you actually have a bad IBC or poor connection. If that is not the case have trailer side checked for problems.

Just a thought. I wouldn't drive it at all that way. You might consider replacing Carlisle actuator with Dextor actuator. Dextor says DX-2 will work with 2008 Ford TowCommand.

I'm still pressing Ford for a solution and have request support from DoubleTree.
