What happens here

To prepare the trailer for transport, the inoperable hydraulic jack must be addressed. A forklift (Clark) is used to carefully lift the gooseneck hitch of the trailer and secure it onto the truck. Temporary support pins, including a homemade cotter pin, are then installed to hold the jack in place. During this process, the team discovers the hydraulic jack's battery is a very old Interstate model from 2009, strongly suggesting it's the cause of the jack's malfunction. Additionally, it's noticed that the trailer's lights are not working, posing a safety concern for the journey.

Goal: Secure the trailer for transport and identify electrical problems.
