The fuse for trailer lights is almost always located in the vehicle’s interior or engine bay fuse box , not on the trailer itself. It is rarely a single fuse; instead, separate fuses protect different trailer light functions (left turn, right turn, tail/running lights). The exact location and labeling vary by vehicle make and model. | | Trailer tow module fuse | Engine
