My equalizer hitch does that every now and then, even when it's lubed up with the equalizer blue hitch grease. I either back the truck up a 1/4 of an inch or lightly tap the release with my rubber mallet. I know the exact height that the TT and TV should release. If you do not, use the backup method. Also, which model WD hitch do you have? I assume you have raised the tongue on your travel trailer higher than the level of the ball on your vehicle. The first time I tried to unhitch my equalizer, it took me about 10 tries to figure out the process with a friction weight distribution hitch. The camping world guy who told me what to do was...less than helpful. YouTube and this forum gave me what I needed to get it done. It is likely a simple answer but more info needed to help you out.
