electrical

I am having issues with popping the brake light fuse and flasher fuse, is there any common problems before I get deep in to the electrical. It is 6 degrees F out so any suggestion would be great.

Sometimes water or mud in the trailer jack will short it out.

I don't think they are.

Check out your trailer harness connection. the backside hangs in the roadwash and can get pretty gunked up. might be that simple.
