Stay safe on the open road—and free from flickering trailer lights caused by a wiggling pigtail that can pose a real danger on the road, as well as run the risk of DOT citations. Temporary, makeshift solutions many truck drivers use for flickering tail lights are just that—temporary. Don’t put on a band aid on a long-term issue that can be easily and reliably fixed with my simple tool, the Pigtail Wedge.
If Your Solution Works, Why Are Faulty Trailer Lights Still a Problem?
Truck drivers of all levels, from newbies to seasoned pros, think they know the best way to stop wiggling pigtails. But if they did, why would it still be such a big problem on the road?
These don’t always work. And when they stop working—which they will!— they pose a threat on the road—to other drivers, and to your CSA score.
The Pigtail Wedge reduces the flickering issue from happening in the first place. This can save truckers countless hours spent in the shop getting repairs and replacements. When we’ve tested it, the Pigtail Wedge extends the life of the pigtail by as much as 6-9 months, on average.
