Check fuses. Never had the issue on a Ranger but I did over the summer on a Ram 5500.

Check your grounds back there on the frame for corrosion. Also do you have trailer wiring harness tapped in?

I'd assume the grounds are good since the other lights are working but I'll check that tomorrow after work. And yes I do have a trailer harness.

Is your trailer harness aftermarket or not?

I believe there's a single connection point in the wiring harness at the back for all of the lights. I'd pull that thing apart and check and clean all of the pins.

Didn't have time to look at it today, I'll look tomorrow. And trailer harness is factory.
