Did you hook the unit up (Put it on the ball) and pull it around a little? You may have a good ground on your unit and a good ground on your MB but are they together?

The PDF file from MB shows the resistors going to ground. I'm sure they know what their doing but with the wrong values, or a bad ground.

If you used the resistors direct in-line it would lesson the brightness of the LEDs.

Another thing I would try is getting a jumper wire and running it to the ground inside the trailer's plug and directly to the battery of the MB. Just let the wire lay on the floor to see if it helps.

The above suggestions are with the resistors still in place
