Re: Chip and trailer wire goes NUTS!!! Lesson learned!!!

Amen to that. I was raised that if I ever had to borrow something, I always brought it back in as good or better shape than when I got it. If I had to borrow a car for a quick errand, it was always given back with the gas tank topped off. Just common courtesy stuff.
Guess that's why I'm real picky about who I loan things to. Certain people that I have loaned things to in the past, I don't expect to get those items back.
Glad you figured out the trailer plug was bad. I don't run a chip, but I've had weird electrical gremlins before when hooking up a trailer and having errant or bad grounding.
