Emergency lights are Flashing

Hello. I'm new here but I'm in a bind. I had to leave my 2014 Mobile Suites Estates behind for a family emergency. It is plugged in and set up. I just received a call from a friend at the campground. My warning lights on the 5th wheel are flashing and the brake lights are on. It is not hooked up to the tow vehicle. Can anyone think what is causing this? My friends have access to a set of keys I left hidden. I had my friend just try disconnecting from power, check breakers etc, but the are still flashing. This friend unfortunately has very little knowledge of RV's.
  • Don't understand the "flash", since there is not a flasher in any trailer.

    But a shorted pig-tail would be my best guess also.

    Disconnecting the battery will NOT fix that, as the power from the converter will still be supply 12VDC
  • Sounds like something shorted out in your pigtail, did it get wet?

    Have them disconnect the batteries. Someone at the campground will know how to do that.
