Trailer Electrics plugged in causing Multiple Faults ??

I plug in my trailer tent and drive a short distance, maybe less than a 1/3 mile and get HDC, Transmission Fault, Suspension Fault etc. Unplug the trailer electrics and tow and the D3 is fine !

What's going one here, D3 socket / electrics faulty ???
