Hi new owner here. Getting ready for my first road adventure tomorrow. Noticed that there is a wire cable, small thickness coming from under the tongue of my trailer. Is this supposed to be hooked to something on my truck?

It's to light of gauge wire to be anything that security related?

I hope you didn't buy your trailer from a dealer. If so, they should have throughly explained all of this to you before you left the lot.

Thanks for asking us about this instead of just guessing. It's as been explained by others and is extremely important
