We own a gatormade car hauler trailer that sits outside. It has the round trailer connector with the electric trailer brakes. The hitch sits in our garage which is not climate controlled.
Ever time we go to use it, the lights are not stable and we get trailed connected / trailer disconnected messages on our trucks every time we use it, until the rust wears off the ball and hitch.
So on sat I wire brushed and sanded the hitch and the ball, and curled up a piece of sandpaper in the ball socket. No more issues now.
Does this mean the trailer requires a ground elsewhere?
