Consumer Description

The DIC randomly displays “check trailer wiring” then says “brakes connected” over and over. When this happens the brakes on the trailer quit working, all lights continue to work all the time. It hasn’t been back to the dealer yet but I will take it when I can. Other vehicles have no issues with this trailers brakes when towing. I have replaced the trailer pig tail 7 pin plug, cleaned all connections etc. The only thing that works so far is to disconnect one of 4 electric brakes then the DIC is silent and 3 brakes function. I even replaced some magnets in the trailer brakes but they were working prior to the DIC message that began on my second towing trip. There is a technical bulletin for some GMC trucks but my model isn’t listed as one. I believe it to be the controller or software since nothing seems to work as far as the trailer is concerned. It isn’t my trailers issue…I know they are going to say it is.
