The controller is indicating a problem with continuity. Pull the head on your plug (trailer) and check for loose connections (they can become loose over time).

Check your wiring all the way back to the hubs, you could have snagged the wiring with road debris and pulled the wire from the clips (I hate these) used at the hubs.

How many miles on the trailer brakes?
How much wear?
Have you pulled the drum for an inspection (easy to do)?

The magnets wear out before the shoes or the brake hardware does. If worn, it's quick, cheap and easy to replace the assembly, just a bolt-on procedure.
