Tail-light oddity
Helloo!
Thanks in advance for any help.
My wife and I just noticed that our Rockwood Roo has a tail-light issue.

Brake and turn signals work just fine when running lights are off.

Brake and turn signals do not work at all when running lights are on.

We do think this is a new issue, as we've been using the trailer for a couple years now, but honestly we do not thing we've ever tested that the tail-lights when running lights are on, so who knows..

Any ideas? Bad relay in TV (2012 Nissan Armada)

Thanks!
