Consumer Description
Recently purchased a 2024 Chevrolet Silverado Hd3500 and use it to haul a 40' 5th wheel toyhauler. Several instances when I connected the RV electrical cord to the truck I would see a "check trailer wiring" message. Along with this message I noticed there was no current going to the RV brakes. I had several technicians look into matter, but could not find a resolution. Later my brother sent me a YouTube related to this problem. It appears that if the RV has solar cells for power or the RV generator is running, the voltage on the RV battery is affecting the truck sensors and disables the brakes. This can be a life threatening issue for the vehicle driver or others on the highway.
