Default Boat trailer wiring help please?

Had to re-do the wiring on my boat trailer. Got everything working except the right blinker. Left one works, but no right one. All wiring and connections are good. Electrical taped and shrink wrapped all connections to help with water-proofing. Any thoughts on what could be wrong? Give me a call---337-375-5620

No rene..... Coonass. Just checked both sets of fuses (under the hood and inside the driver's door).

Well if they are not LED lights, check the bulb....FYI, put on LED lights and you will not have problems.
