How a Trailer Brake-Away System Works by Factory Outlet Trailers 403-603-3311

Kelly, our Service Manager goes thru the working system of a Trailer Electric Brake Brake-Away system. It is very important to understand and maintain this safety feature.

But you didn’t show us “The wiring Diagram or method of how it all gets wired. 😕

If the part that's supposed to pull out to activate the brakes - snaps instead of pulling out - that nullifies the break-away and renders the system useless. Pretty scary stuff if you ask me.

I have a question on a electric trailer brake system 2013 F350 how does the tbc know if it’s a single ( two brake ) or double (4 brake ) trailer connected
If I remove the magnets on one axle a message comes up trailer disconnected I’m curious how the truck knows if it’s a double or single axle trailer connected

You did not say how the breakaway system works..

I was expecting a little more info. But nice try. Thanks

As others mentioned, you set the table, but didn't actually show how it works. Everyone coming here knows what it's supposed to do. We come here to learn how it works.

Do you feel the breakaway switch? I wanna make sure not to buy it.... Why even upload this if YOU broke that 0% chance it wouldnt fail if needed.
