While trying to figure out if my brake controller was alive I think I shorted something out. Furnace isn't turning on.
I'm unclear as to how you're associating the brake controller and the trailer's furnace. :h The brake controller wiring doesn't have anything to do with the trailer's internal 12 vdc system ... it's powered by the tow vehicle and it's output is routed to the trailer's brakes, nowhere else.
The truck was hooked up to the trailer in order to do the tests. No idea how that could have sent current into the furnace but the timing is suspicious.
