Hey guys
I was adding some running lights on my trailer and when I was about done I shorted something out (a wire hit the trailer frame I am guessing). Everything was working fine up until this point. I bought a little 4 wire tester and realized there is no juice coming from the plug at the truck. I figured this was just a fuse but I checked all fuses under the dash and hood THREE TIMES! My question is there another fuse box somewhere that I dont know about or is there possibly an inline fuse in the factory harness? I really need to fix this problem today. I need the trailer for work tomorrow and all the parts stores will be closed due to turkey day.
this is on a 97 xlt v8 with tow package.
thanks in advance and have a great thanksgiving!

4TH TIMES THE CHARM!
Barley visable hairline fracture in one of the big 20 amp fuses under the hood.
Problem solved. Ripped apart half my rig before i found this.
thanks

Good troubleshooting and perseverance!:biggthump I was going to suggest the fusible link.

Thanks for the follow-up.
