Check with a meter to make sure you have continuity through the brake circuit on the trailer side. You can also do a basic test of the trailer's brakes by pulling the breakaway cable (with a charged battery in the trailer of course) and checking with a compass at each wheel to make sure the magnets are energized. Be sure to put the breakaway insert back into the switch when you're done with your check.
If you have an open circuit at the brakes I don't think the controller will "know" there's a trailer plugged in.
