Question about interior lights on Brenderup Horse Trailer

HI Jeff,
I am the second owner of this trailer.  When I bought it, I was not able to get the interior lights to work, but the running lights are fine.  A phone call to the dealer, and I was told that I needed to turn the interior light cover in the tack room to turn it on. This didn't work. The dealer had no idea about the interior trailer light.  The wiring has a flat four plug - is this the problem, do you think?
Thanks,
Cathy

I am not certain about the lights in that particular trailer.   On ours (Baron) the dome lights turn on by turning the covers... not a simple task.   Then there is a light in the tack compartment that has an on off switch that turns.

The Brenderup lights aren't very impressive.   The bulbs (if they look like a little torpedo) are available at most places that sell auto parts.  They are used by BMW, Mercedes and AUDI for interior lights.  Eventually I want to convert mine to LED lights with either a switch or just the stick on lights that you press to light.   Available at Lowe's and Home Depot.

The flat four plug isn't the problem.

You could call Traveled Lane Trailers in MD and ask Suzie or John.  They really know each model.

Let me know how you make out with this!

Happy Trails.
Jeff

Thanks, Jeff!
I finally did get a reply from the dealer, will cut and paste it for you:

"If you have the wiring correct in your vehicle for all the lights to work including the one inside on top of the entry ramp then that light in the tack room should work too. If it doesn't work then the bulb might be burned out. You just twist the outside of the light and if it doesn't turn on then you push in and turn it and the plastic plate will come off and you replace the bulb. Have you checked your floor? The Brenderup floors are one solid piece so if the mats aren't picked up and off the floor then the floor will rot. To test the floor ( which is more of a concern to me then the lights) Take a screwdriver and poke it into the edges of the floor. If it penetrates then you need to start considering a new floor. If it doesn't then do yourself a favor and get some waterproof decking sealer and seal the floor.   Pam"
