[srixon]

I have a new 2019 f350 and have a turn signal and brake light problem with my 2017 DRV fifth wheel all worked well with my 2015 f350. Anyone have problems?

What kind of problems are you having? If it is trailer disconnect messages get one of these from Curt.....7-WAY RV BLADE LED ELECTRICAL ADAPTER (NOT A WIRING EXTENSION) #57003

What Mike said is on the money. We triple tow and with the second trailer attached I got all kinds of messages. One quick plug-in of the adapter and all is well.

Wow! Thanks for the info. I too have unfounded error messages with my 2019 F350 and my 2019 DRV. Ford dealer says everything tests fine, trailer dealer says everything is fine. Not so much with the truck. Every time I hit the brakes, "trailer disconnected" warning appears. Put on turn signal and I get "trailer turn signal lights not working". So frustrating! Very appreciative to y'all for a solution, Will pass it on to both dealers.

Good luck finding that Curt 57003. I went to the Summit Racing warehouse in Arlington, TX and they were out. I went to several trailer rental places and they had none. I even called Curt and THEY were out. I thought I had found the holy grail when I found one on Amazon and ordered it. It arrived in the correct packaging, but inside was NOT the 57003. I am still on the hunt for one. I, too, have the errors when towing my 2016 Mobile Suite with my 2019 Ford F450 KR. I have heard that if you hookup the wiring with the truck running, and unhook the truck with it running, you get no errors. I have found that to be true. However, during pit stops, I seldom remember to unhook the trailer when exiting the truck at rest areas and such so when I return and go, and make that first turn or first step on the brake, I get the dreaded "trailer disconnected" message or "turn signals not working" messages.

Thanks for the link. I ordered it just now. It should be at my daughter's house by Friday. That works out well since we will be there next Sunday.

I thought CCP Diesel had one, but it turned out that they had to order from the manufacturer, who is also out of stock. I just ordered from your link, thanks, and it didn’t kick out the order, so I hope it goes through. Taking our rig to Rolling Retreats next Thursday for third ac install. Ditto the good reports about them, very pleasant to work with so far. Bonus is they have a campground next door to stay in. They come get the rig and put it back when done!

Update-Link above is to U-Haul site, they too are out of stock. Estimate re-stock 9/16/19. Curt needs to make a deal with Ford to supply one of these with each new F350!

Update #2-Tried the plug in with truck running, didn’t work for me. Still waiting on pig tail delivery. I was just at Rolling Retreats and he had just sold his last one, but said that the Curt 57003 is the answer!

[Joezilla948]

I ordered from Uhaul, but got an email that it won’t ship until September 6. We pull out on the 11th. Sure hope it arrives by then.

My original post about the light problem, yesterday I found a great mechanic at the Ford dealer where I bought the last 3 trucks. He bypassed the modual in the hydraulic compartment and wired all the lights on each side of rear so they all work together on each side, brake ,turn & clearance $50.00. He tried wiring in a couple of extra lights first but that didn’t work.

YUP, I dumped that module and wired all my lights to work as they should. I ordered mine with all lights RED.
