So I'm kind of in a bind, supposed to pull my new trailer to a campground tonight...
Spent last night rewiring the brakes as I thought that was the issue but it apparently isn't.

Does anyone know the minimum resistance that the truck needs to see to not throw the trailer brakes disconnected error?
I've measured 1 ohm at the trailer connector and verified full brake voltage out of the truck with the trailer disconnected.

Seems like I either have an issue on the whip on the trailer or an issue at the connector on the truck, it was fine for 50 miles and now it says they're disconnected again.
Anyone had issues with the truck connector?

No issues with mine, I’ve used it several times with my little 16’ camper

Luckily I wiggled the connection and it was fine the rest of the way, I'll definitely be looking into it because I'll be taking a long trip at the end of the month
