You took the time to post a photo. Sorry but I can't help as I don't have the same type. But it looks like that knurled knob would need to be tightened and maybe it would force the threaded portion...

Well, the battery is charged I think. Most of these trailers have a battery cut-off switch to help discharge when the trailer is not used. They really don't work very well though. That auto...

It's too bad that auto-detect didn't work and you had to do all of that detective work to figure out that it was not working as advertised. Bending parts of the electrical board would make me...

Grease can get hard as it ages. One thing about using the zerks is that is can push your inner seal out of place, allowing grease contamination on the brake lining. Many trailer owners refuse to...

PS, Rather than remove and replace, You might consider covering the stove top and placing portable induction units on top.

Anything that is involved with heating will draw a lot of amps. You may not be able to run two "burners" simultaneously, let alone one. But ... I don't know about the induction systems.

I take it No. 1 and No. 2 are when the tires of the trailer are not on the scale?

Hitch weight is 800? If that is a maximum, that is your limit. That seems a bit light to me. Remember that 12% or so of the trailer needs to be on the ball. 800 = x (.12) means that x is the max...

I would think that positive (black) is for both extend and for retract, and the switch closes the circuit for one or the other directions. But that is a guess.

White is usually ground for trailers. Check ohms from the white to frame (bolt or whatever) to see if ohms are near zero. I replaced a fuse panel in an old trailer and you might find a main lug at...

BTW, if yours plugs into an outlet box, there will be a solenoid switch in the box that closes the 120 volt circuit when it senses 12 volts from the wall switch.

No, you can't take out the drain plug and blow out the lines. You need to push air through the hot lines and if you remove the plug from the water heater first, the air will just short circuit. I...

I didn't mean to doubt you. I tried pulling Romex out from behind a wall of an old trailer and couldn't do it. Too many staples I guess.

No it doesn't, but I assume that 12% of the trailer weight should be on the tongue, so it isn't surprising that it exceeds the maximum tongue weight by a small amount.
