Had the same problem except my brakes weren't functioning. Took it to Ford Dealer and they checked the brake controller--all ok. Then replaced the brake wiring on the trailer and, so far, everything is working. I believe, but have no evidence, that the problem really lies in Ford's integrated brake controller. I am tempted to replace the integrated controller with an aftermarket prodigy controller. Or this one from e-trailer: https://www.etrailer.com/Brake-Controller/Autowbrake/3430001.html
So you had a Ford brake controller report a problem with the trailer, was functioning properly and now you want to toss it out and get a much inferior aftermarket unit?
Yeah ditto on that, mine has worked just fine after I replaced the plug and when I had the old plug apart I found a loose connection that was obviously the source of the trouble. I could have fixed the old one but since I had a new plug I just went ahead and replaced it.
