There are about 5 fuses for the trailer harness, Trailer Back up,Trailer left turn, Trailer right turn, Trailer Brake, and Trailer hazards. They are located in the underhood fuse box on the Drivers side of your motor. On my 2003 Silverado, the Trailer left/stop and Trailer right/stop fuses are located in the fuse panel just inside the driver's side door. (Not sure about the trailer brake or hazard fuses.....I wasn't having problems with those :). There is one additional fuse for the trailer harness. The 15A fuse for the trailer running lights is located in the fuse panel under the hood, next to the battery. The fuse is labeled "Trailer Park".

Your local auto parts store can sell you a trailer plug harness that plugs into the vehicle's original harness that requires no cutting.
To install trailer wiring on an '88 Jeep Cherokee, first locate the vehicle's tail light harness. You'll typically need to splice into the rear light wires for the brake, turn signals, and running lights. Use a trailer wiring harness adapter if available for a simpler installation; otherwise, ensure proper connections and use heat shrink or electrical tape to protect the splices. Finally, test the connections by hooking up the trailer to ensure all lights function correctly.

Check your fuses and look for a dead-short on the tail light wire (probably brown).
To test a trailer harness with a multimeter, first ensure the vehicle is connected to the trailer and that the vehicle's lights are on. Set the multimeter to measure DC voltage and probe the appropriate pins on the trailer connector based on the wiring diagram for the harness. Activate the turn signals, brakes, and running lights one at a time to check for the correct voltage at each pin. If the readings match the expected values, the harness is functioning properly; if not, there may be a fault in the harness or vehicle wiring.
Auto parts stores can sell you a trailer harness that plugs in between your existing truck harness. The electrical connection used is usually located behind the rear bumper on the inside of the left frame. Directions will come with the trailer harness kit.
