Trouble Free Trailer Lights

By Bill Mattson

To completely eliminate any bulb problems due to dirt and/or corrosion at the light sockets, remove the socket, and solder the wires directly to the bulb. The bulbs last fairly long, and bulb replacement using a soldering gun is pretty quick anyway.

I did this 4 seasons ago, and the bulbs have been trouble free ever since.
