I have parking lights,
just nothing else,

Also I have a bunch of wires when I only need, 7 or 8......

I don't have the book with my truck so I don't have the wire diagram....

I needed the Stroker yesterday for a tow job.. it didn't arise to the occasion, (stupid trailer lights MIA)

Had to pull my 24' enclosed with my 98 4.6 f-150.....

There should be separate fuses for the trailer lights in the fusebox under the hood. Look in your owners manual for the exact fuse numbers or just check for which ones are blown or missing.

Look here:

Put in your truck's info - It will take you to a link to be able to read your owner's manual. I checked, start looking around page 178. There is a fuse for the trailer Stop/Turn signals.

Check the fuses under the dash on the left side. I had the same thing awhile back and it was a fuse in the cabin.
