No left blinker/stop at 7pin connector

Not sure which fuse might affect only wire for left blinker/stop light. Voltage drop seems to indicate a fuse or maybe a short. Have 12+ volts for right side, but 10+ on left side and not adequate to drive left blinker/stop light on trailer. Good bulb on trailer. Which connector has this wire in the engine comparment and which fuse powers this wire? Seems like it might be a common problem based on surprisingly large number of posts all about losing power to this wire. One 'solution' was need to replace PDC. Yikes.

Its actually located in the TIPM. more like a internal circuit breaker to protect the system. will have to have the TIPM reconfigured to vehicle spec with the dealer scan tool. problem is it doesnt always work because it shorts it out and/or you can only do it a couple of times berfore it has to be replaced

How do I know my blinker relay is bad on my 1998 Oldsmobile Delta 88

Check it by using your hazard lights. If they flash, the relay is OK and you have a woring issue.

Rear tail lights running lights not working on my 2003 Buick Park Avenue

Check the wire grounds where the lens connect to the vehicle. With a test light check to make sure current is arriving at the bulbs. If not, then follow the wires back to the light switches.

Brake lights on my 01 gmc sierra truck dont work but the tail lights, blinkers and emergency lights all work.

Could be the brake lamp switch is bad , stop lamp fuse 20 amp in under hood fuse box could be blown .Check the fuse ,if not blown check for B+ voltage at the brake switch , location - top of brake pedal under the dash . Do you know how to test automotive electrical circuit's using a DVOM - digital volt ohm meter ? Looking at a wiring diagram so you know which wires to test would be good too . Do you know what a wiring diagram is ? Free ones here http://www.bbbind.com/free-tsb Enter vehicle info. Year , make , model an engine size . Under system click on lighting ,then under subsystem click exterior lighting . Click the search button then the blue link. first diagram top left you will see the stop lamp switch . orange wire in is B+ voltage . Press the brake pedal while checking for B+ coming out on the white wire . No B+ coming out ,replace the switch . Will be other wires as well , other switch etc... check the right one .

The left tail light on my trailer doesnt work.the stop and turn signal works . is there a fuse for it? i have 2011 gmc sierra 1500

There is a tail lights fuse for the truck, but not for the trailer.
First, check that your left tail light on the truck is working, if not fix the problem (new bulb, bad contact, fuse).
Then the obvious suggestions regarding the trailer are: Check the tail light portion of the bulb to be sure it is not blown. If good (best to put in new one to be sure), then check the wiring from the front of the trailer all of the way to the non working bulb, including every connection and at any place it is secured to the trailer frame. If all is good with the trailer circuit and bulb, then check the truck's trailer connector, including any adapters. If by chance the truck is wired with a flat 4 wire harness the problem may be solved (but usually the blinkers are the problem). Modern trucks require a 5 wire harness which self adapts to the standard 4 wire trailer circuit. Check for dc power (12 volts) from the truck's female connector. One wire will be ground, others will be taillights (turn on headlights), brake lights (have someone press brake pedal), and blinkers (turn on switch and blinkers).

Indicator lights

well there could be a couple of things happening here your flasher could be on it's way out, which is on your fuse panel, check your owners manual, or if there is a cover, for which one this is you could have a bad ground, which these our known for or a broken wire or loose wire the best way for someone to try to find this, is when this happens, take a test light or volt meter to back probe the wires to try to find the break in the wire, then trace your ground and make sure it has good contract, if rusted clean up check for cracks, bare spots in any of these wires, if found fix, by splicing wire, using a crimp wire connector, with a heat shrink tubing to protect it, these can be found at an auto parts store also your turn signal switch could be at fault here

It does sound as though the trailer connection is the source of the problem, check to see if the wiring has been resting on the exhaust pipe and melted through, shorting the wires. Also check if it is squashed or damaged anywhere. Failing this you may have to pull the trailer connector apart and see if the wires have come out inside and are touching, this can happen if the trailer connector is pulled hard.

Check the plug at the back of the truck for corrosion. The brown wire entering the truck plug should be the the running lights, if no juice at truck plug in, you need to trace it back to the source looking for broken, pinched, wires, or poor connections.

BLINKERS NOT WORKING

Ok this a way different problem than i thought it was first thing to look at is the relays and fuses and connectors to make sure they are not loose, pull them out and reconnect them. Engine running = vibration. Engine not running = no vibration. If thats good your left light blinker may be shorted to your constant power. Your right blinker may have an intermittent open. I looked at turn signal flashers online they are about $10 each, maybe swap em out then return if it does not fix it. It really sounds like a wiring problem though so look at the back side of where the light is connector and tell me what you find if anything
Good luck
