Ok. i was putting a cd player in my 88' f-150 the other day... while i was doing this i blew a fuse. when i went to put a new one in i knocked out the connector that goes in on of the spots for a trailer brake. When i press the trailer brake button the tail lights go on but when i press the brake pedal, they dont work. This is the connector that allows you to use a trailer brake setup... if anyone has an idea where this weird connector goes or any help at all let me know. thanks... need help ASAP!!!!

Remove the connectors and clean them with connector cleaner and reinstall with dielectric grease. Check for broken wires causing a short. What kind of trailer brake system are you running? At a last resort reset the computer. Remove the pos and neg battery cables. Turn the key on and touch the cables together to completely drain the system. Reinstall with dielectric grease.
