At night when truck and trailer lights are on the truck detects trailer is disconnected, this happens every few minutes. Note: I've seen a bulletin about solar panels on the trailer, I do not have solar panels on the trailer. Also, blind spot mirror indicators at night are almost constantly on. When the trailer and truck lights go off, the blind spot indicators work as intended.
