I just moved someone else's 5th wheel trailer from an RV shop to his house as a favor. I noticed my reverse/perimeter lights didn't work the same night after I towed the trailer. I checked the bulbs, and both Truck and Trailer B/U fuses under the hood - all OK. I Am I missing something? Another fuse?

Check for blown fuses in the panel at the driver's end of the dash...

Check the relays in the underhood fuse box. My front daytime/perimeter lights went out and the relay had gone bad.

Checked every fuse and relay - all good.When I place the truck in reverse, I have 12V at the B/U Fuse under the hood. When I press the door unlock on my remote and the DRL perimeter is on - I have 12V flowing through the Trailer B/U Fuse. Still no reverse lights.
Anyone have a schematic?

Having same problem here, back up lights not working even though all the fuses & relays check out ok.

Fuse panel in the Dash (driver's side), replace the blown TBC 2B 15Amp fuse.

I checked every fuse in there and they were all good. I will have a look at that specific fuse and let you know. Thank you

If the fuses are good, and have power, have you checked the light's themselves?
I will agree both usually won't go at the same time, but it does happen.

It was one of the first tests I did. Both bulbs are good and there is no power to either reverse light socket.

That fuse was not blown. Still no reverse lights.

Thanks much man, that was the one. Would have sworn I checked that one.
