    reflective tape removal

    I was able to remove the reflective tape pretty well with a razor blade in a holder. It didn't damage the paint much at all. It did leave the glue behind, but diesel takes that off ok. I'm going to repaint, anyway.

    Are you sure that the one that was in it when you got it was the correct resistor? Isn't the M872 a 24v trailer? Why is there a resistor anywhere? What are you towing it with? Please describe the electrical system, what voltage bulbs are in it, etc. Happy to help, but need more info. Jim
