When pulling gooseneck trailer the marker lights go out on the bed and cab of this truck. The dealers say there is no issue, this happens with every gooseneck trailer pulled by this vehicle. The research I have managed to find states the wires on the passenger side become pinched causing a fuse to blow. Without side marker lights, the vehicle is difficult to see at night. The first time it happened truck was at a dealer for unrelated issue, they replaced the fuse. Hooked back to the trailer, lights went out within 15 minutes. As we were heading home(900miles) waited until we were home to discuss issue with a second service dealer. They also replaced the fuse, stating they could not see an issue. Fast forward two months. Hooked to a different gooseneck trailer. No marker lights. No cab lights. Once again fuse blew. We replaced fuse. Have not pulled since, but are planning to pull gooseneck trailer within the next month.
