"Trailer Not Connected" message when trailer IS connected
UPDATE: Problem Solved. Trailer is equipped an after-market brake controller that's tucked up under the trailer tongue/propane tanks and the trailer plug is plugged into this unit. Coming out of this unit is another plug, the one we've been attempting to use, that plugs into the tow vehicle. We...- seadonkey79

That's the plan. Will report back once another trailer is tested. I won't be splurging for the tester, I'll let the dealership(s) figure it out once I determine the most likely culprit; truck or trailer.- seadonkey79

'22 2500 6.7 Cummins. 1st time towing and dash says "trailer not connected." Lights and signals work AND the trailer brakes do work when the service brakes are applied.
