THE TRAILER LIGHT CORD IS WIRED SO THAT WHEN LEFT TURN SIGNAL IS FLASHING ON THE TRAILER, THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL WILL FLASH. ALSO, WHEN SWITCH FOR TAIL LIGHT AND LICENSE PLATE LIGHT ARE TURNED ON, THE MARKER LIGHTS BURN.
Consequence: MALFUNCTIONING OF TRAILER LIGHTING COULD CONFUSE OTHERDRIVERS AND PRESENT A SAFETY HAZARD.
Remedy: CORRECT WIRING SO THAT LIGHTS FUNCTION PROPERLY.
