One brake light on my trailer works when the brake is pressed and works when the headlights are on but when I press the brake while the headlights are on it goes out. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Almost always a ground issue. Check the wires from the connector back then check the bulb fixtures themselfs. I had the trailer gremlins too and it was the wire being grounded to the frame through the little metal clip that had worn through the insulation.

It is with out a doubt a ground issue. Reconnect your ground and your problem is solved

Most of the time it is a bad ground. When you hook up your lights and test them, put your emergency flashers on. If there is a weak ground, the lights on trailer will not be in sequence with the towing vehicle.
2 Thessalonians 1:6-10
In these verses, there are dire consequences for NOT obeying the gospel. What the world claims as "saved" isn't gonna cut it! Learn what it is, in an eye opening true story, "Muscle and a Shovel", by Michael Shank.
