You could have some corroded connectors. I would open the socket after checking a couple of fuses in the panel shown. Just replacing parts and not knowing could be a waste of money. I found my pigtail had loose screws and one of the little ones had actually fallen out. Funny thing it managed to drop on the driveway and I picked it up. Somehow I knew I would find where it went. Two months later I did.

Please, make and model if you wish the most accurate help.

If it is a 2011 Monaco then find the rear distribution panel shown in the second diagram. I looked at an overall schematic of the wiring and believe you have two paths. One is directly to the light and the one you need goes through this distribution box. It has relays and fuses. Losing multiple functions leads me to a loose connector or possible bad power feed to the box. If you have a test light go inside the box and check each side of the fuses. A voltmeter is ok but can fool you. Many vehicles use seperate fuse and relay panels for the tow wiring. You could have multiple fuses blown too.

Well.. you are not going to believe this.. Monoco technical support responded to my inquiry and informed me of the following; The "brown wire".. is the Right turn signal. The "red wire" is the Left turn signal. Yellow is Aux/Backup.. Green is tail lights..
Soo.. much much different than i expected.. I will now go check those to see where i have power.. and where i don't..

Note: The coach lights in back.. use same red color/bulb for directional and brakes.

In case you need fuse location.

I would begin with your plug on the MH. Check the connnections to be sure no wires are touching and all the wires are tight. Then use a test light to be sure all lights are working according to your MH wiring diagram. If all is good at this point, check the plug from your tow vehicle for the same problems. If all appears to be correct, plug it it in again and and you will likely have fixed your problem.

As Heber suggests, use a test light because a voltmeter can trick you.

Thanks to everyone.. I have been using my Test Light and my multi meter since the beginning.. I just need to rewire the way Monoco says it came from factory.. which is very strange. Will try that first.. and see where i am.. Brown for right.. and Red for left.. vs them using green and yellow wires for directionals.. like the rest of world.

Did this setup ever work for you?
If not, someone could easily have moved wires around to a non standard configuration. Before just changing wires see if you have the proper voltages and signals even if they are on the wrong pins. Chaning wires willy nilly could cause you more headaches if you don't find out what IS working versus what SHOULD be working.

When it stops raining.. I plan to check wire for power.. etc.. prior to moving. I don't do things 'willy nilly'.. thx.

Oops, sorry if I sounded offensive. None meant for sure.

Thanks.. I hope to check wires later today.. as rain as stopped. I am at Talladega super speedway for the races this weekend.. )
