No clearance lights 2022 GD transcend

[TomandPam]

Hi,
Just bought a 2022 transcend went on our first trip and we have no clearance lights on the trailer. I have power to the junction box of the trailer. Is there a fuse for the clearance lights? I looked in the manual and it says to check fuse, but I have not located where it is? Any suggestions?
Thanks
Tom

Welcome to the forum!

I'm not sure clearance lights are fused (they're on a fused circuit from the tow vehicle). There is usually a junction box in the front near/under the tongue or somewhere that contains the incoming wires from the tow vehicle and has multiple splices to various parts of the trailer wiring. When folks look inside this box, they often find a rats nest of wire nuts, electrical tape and who knows what else. I would start by checking there and make sure all those connections are tight and there are no "orphaned" wires hanging about. A multimeter is handy for checking incoming voltages, too.

Thank you Rob
I have checked the junction box and there is power in and power out all the ground wires seem tight? From that box the wire heads up into the covered under carriage. Thank you again.

So like what Rob said your clearance lights are powered by your truck and the fuse is in the truck. Check for fuses in your truck for the trailer clearance lights. I don't think the 12V powering the clearance lights will show up in the junction box on the trailer.

Thanks your correct the power comes from the tow vehicle I would assume there would also be a fuse or breaker on the trailer. Every horse trailer and travel trailer we have owned before had a fuse on the clearance lights and turn signal. I have a appointment to take it to the dealer in a week, I was just hoping it was a fuse and I could save myself some time.
Thanks again!

I'm not sure if the clearance lights are powered from the tail lights, but I would pull them and look for a loose connection.

This is a late reply to this thread so please forgive me but it may help others. In June we had our 2022 22RBE delivered to our home after the signoff at the dealer. IR was not connected to a tow vehicle during the walkthrough. (my hitch was late getting delivered). Upon connecting my truck and doing a light check I found I had no clearance lights on the top front of the RBE. Strangely, all other clearance lights were working - the back and sides were fine. I towed it back to the dealer who found a mounting screw for one of the 2 front clearance lights had severed the power wire . They spliced in a new wire and all was well. It probably came from the factory that way.
