UHaul Trailer Lighting Issue During Cross Country Move

We recently embarked on a cross-country move from Syracuse to Dallas, towing a U-Haul 5x8 trailer behind our car. The trip was split into four days, with stops in Mansfield, OH, Nashville, TN, and Little Rock, AR.

Before leaving Syracuse, I checked every item according to the checklist, including hitch pin, ball mount, coupler, safety chain, wiring, tires, lock, etc. However, I skipped checking the lights because they were already tested when picking up the trailer, so I assumed that they should be working properly as long as the connection was good.

The first stop was Mansfield OH, about 7 hours drive from Syracuse. We stopped for dinner and gas at a small town near Cleveland OH. It was almost dark and I was a bit anxious since I skipped the light check before departure. So I checked the trailer tail lights and found out that the lights were off.
