You have an earth missing on the trailer board, unless you have the car wired wrong, is this new?, and does it work on another trailer or board? my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

If the brake lights flash and the indicators don't even light dimly then the indicator wire is connected to the brake lights. Whether this is due to canbus or incorrect wiring I don't know, only way is a meter and check the power from the indicators to earth pin and the brake lights to earth pin. Is it a LR wiring kit and has it been enabled? my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis
