Either there is a dirrect short in the wiring or there is a poor ground...I would start with the ground.

Something I learned a long time ago (and continue to re-learn) is that virtually all stupid electrical problems with trailers boil down to a bad ground. Your problem has bad ground written all over it. Check the white wire(s).
