Some trucks have separate fuses for trailer lights. Brown is for running lights.
Had to get a new harness for the truck, and I don't have something right. I have brake lights, turn signals, but no running light. I know its not the trailer, I hooked it up to my work truck and everything works fine. I have a Chevy, and thought the brown wire was the lights, but maybe I'm wrong, and it doesn't help being colorblind. Any suggestions?

The fuse is in a box under the hood. Look in your owners manual.

What year model truck is it? Is you trailer a 4-wire system?

You probably have a fuse in your truck for your trailer lights. It may be blown
Got it figured out, I had the brown wire hooked to a red wire. Had to have the wife come out and tell me which color was which. I would be a terrible electrician.
Thanks guys
