I had pretty much the same problem with my TT and a Ford F250. Turns out the problem was with the 7 pin connector on the truck. After having the brake controller checked, the brake wires completely re-done, I swapped out the connector and everything worked. I got a new connector from etrailer.com.
There's also some connector blocks at the rear bumper near the connector. Not sure if they're related to the 7-pin connector but also another possibility.
