Normal
When towing my car hauler my truck likes to ding and give me the "Trailer Disconnected" message. During that time (which usually lasts a few seconds until it says "Trailer Connected") the brakes and lights continue to function as normal. My other trailer does NOT do this. My car hauler also does this on a different truck. That all makes me say that this is the trailer, not the truck. It's quite maddening to have the truck continually ding at me every couple minutes on a road trip.That being said, how does the truck "know" the trailer is disconnected or not? That knowledge will help me trace the issue here. I suspect it's some sort of grounding situation on the trailer.Thanks!
