Been flat towing my 2021 Rubicon for about 4 years now, and when I first set everything up, I backed out the fault wire on both tail lights to keep the computer from waking up and draining the Jeep battery while flat towing. So, now that I finally put a charging circuit from RV to Jeep, I reconnected both fault wires, but I still get "turn signals out" message even (turn signals actually work). Anyone know how to correct this????

Maybe drive it 20 miles or so and computer might "re-learn" and correct itself... Just a wide shot, but who knows...

Yeah, that was my thought as well, and it did cure the left turn signal, but not the right. I am thinking now that the right side may not have good contact within the harness for that wire. I was disabled for a few years and was very dirty.
