I had a similar problem with my Coleman pop-up camper. If you have brake lights, turn signals - and no running lights on the trailer, my guess if you have a wiring issue on the trailer itself. Electrical issues in a trailer are sometimes difficult to isolate -- as the wire could be shorting out somewhere, and it is difficult to locate what's causing the problem. Again, my guess is in the wiring of the trailer somewhere. - Jim

did you add the hitch yourself ?  had the same problem with mine after I put a hitch and 7-way plug on mine and read on another web site that you have to add a relay in one of those boxes under the hood to get the tail lights to work, all other lights will work without this relay...

 

no mine came with the towing package.  I have heard from several owners that if you did not get the towing package that the truck did not come with the relays to operate trailer lights.  If you go by the dealer, theywill install them for you.

An NO, it wasn't my trailer wiring, it was a blown fuse.  After replacing it, no problems....the problem was finding it

I just checked my Titan for the 10 amp fuse that you talked about. Mine was not blown but my running lights still don't work. I have heard something about relays. What's this about?

there are a couple of relays in that black box....some owners have found that the relays were never installed from the factory.  i'd have the dealer check it out if you can

I've got a good one for you. Just came from the Nissan dealership and sure enough....I needed two relays. Oh and I had to PAY for them too!!! What a joke! Cost me $60. Just thought you'd like to know in case someone else is having the same problem.

I tried telling them that they should have come with the truck but they said no. That's like buying a new car and one headlight works but you have to pay for them to hook the other one up. Called Nissan......I'll let you know what they say.

I'm glad someone posted that web site.  The whole time I'm reading about the relays needed i was thinking, man that site would help.  To everyone, I have ordered several parts from this dealership, and they are wonderful.  Highly recommend them.    www.courtesyparts.com      takes you straight to there parts.
