Trailer disconnect message

As we pulled out of our driveway, a trailer disconnect message appeared on tv screen. Tv manual said to turn off tv, replug the power cord and start up again. Message disappeared. As we were driving through campgrounds looking for sites, trailer disconnect messsage appeared several times, with trailer connected message also appearing.
Electrically challenged here, but wondering where to start looking for this problem?

    to me it sound like dirty plug on the truck or trailer
    I would clean them up and make sure when you plug the in there tight.
    clean the with a little brakeclean and the spray them with little wd40
    also on the trailer plug you can take a little screwdrive flat blade and go on the out side of the pin and push them forward to the center of the plug to tight them up
