I have just purchased a 2009 Ford F350 that has not brake controller. I have been told I can purchase an integrated one from Ford for $400.00 and then have it programmed by them. But I would rather put on a Prodigy P3 that I can get from Amazon for 131.00. Does anyone know if I can buy one with...
I was told that it was good idea to "feather" trailer brakes manually when going down steep grade to save tv brakes. Good idea or not!!! Thanks for response!!!
and I can't get it to adjust out! :mad:
Ok, 10 inch drums on Lippert axles. Removed the two plugs at the bottom rear of the backing plate. Needed to adjust the shoes out just a little, instead they got adjust in - a lot.
Can't turn the drum at all. The adjuster wheel is not a star, it is more...
I have a question that I hope someone can help me with. I have a 2011 Puma. When I apply the brakes at a slow speed the brakes on the TT feel like they are pulsating, at higher speeds you don't feel this sensation. I have a Curt brake controller installed in my truck. I have it set at 1.4...
I have random issues with brake squeal on my 2014 FR3. First time at about 10,000 miles after hard stop, brakes squealed unless I just touched brake pad. After sitting a few days at campground the noise went away for about 1000 miles then did it one time again before arriving at campground...
Hello folks. I will soon have a constant 12 volt charge line run to my toad battery, but have a question in the interim. I know it very much depends on how much you use the brakes while driving, but on average how long can I use the Brake Buddy (Vantage - Select) in my towed vehicle before it...
Returning from a camping trip over the weekend, I got the break away cable caught in the slide hitch. I released the hitch on my road so I could make the tight turn into my driveway. The trucks message center said "Trailer Fault". I tried to pull forward and couldn't budge the trailer. I also...
A question on the Engine Brake Switch;
Is the light replaceable? My switch and engine brake works just fine but the light stopped working and I am debating to try to repair or replace, A photo in a previous thread with the cover removed appears to show 2 small bulbs of some sort 1 on the top and...
When I plug in the pigtail from pup to TV, there is a buzzing sound that is intermittent, as if it were a beeper rather than a buzzer. The sound comes from the area of the converter. I do not have a battery, and am not plugged in otherwise.
Any ideas?
Thanks
I've been looking, searching, and trying to find out if I can make an oem brake controller work in my 2016 E450 Forester 2651S. Near as I can figure, the wiring is behind the cubby hole/coin holder. I can buy the factory brake controller, and my local Ford dealer says they can reflash the ECU to...
Just bought a new Toad yesterday. Getting it prepped to be pulled behind my coach. I currently have a Brake Buddy, but I really want to upgrade to something that is always installed in the Toad. I just want to hookup an go...
So, in your all's experience, what is the best "hidden" brake...
Anybody looking for a brake system for their toad needs to check out the RViBrake system. I had 2 different smi brake systems that failed right out of the box, so I started researching into a different brand and that's when I came across RVi. It is very simple to install and easy to set up as...
Hello
I have a 2015 Prism 2150LE Class C motor home. We took it out last week and noticed the left REAR directional and brake lights did not work. The front left and right worked fine. We had running lights on the left rear but that is all. I assumed it was a fuse but couldn't find any that were...
I have a 2010 Highwall camper. I'm having an issue with the brakes. With just the battery connected (pig tale disconnected) my brakes lock up. This also happens with the pigtail connected. Has anyone ever experienced this?
Another newbie question!
We have the POD braking system installed in our pickup--came with the new trailer. They are grabbing really hard. How and when can I adjust them? There is a small wheel type adjustment on the system in the truck but I don't know if the truck needs to be running, not...

Hello,
I'm a newb here on the forum, so my apologies ahead of time if this question has already come up (I searched for it, and didn't see any results).
My wife and I are on the cusp of upgrading from a pop-up (which we have outgrown), to a gently used 27 foot Rockwood travel trailer. The...
Does anyone use the Ready Brake with their '06 Liberty toad? If so, how did you route the cable from behind the Liberty's brake and where to the front of the vehicle? We're still looking at what type of brake system we want to use and this seems to be about as no fuss as any, regarding...
While recently replacing a damaged (by me) side marker light assembly, I had difficulty removing the assembly's two mounting screws. These screws were badly rust 'caked' and were the same steel screws used inside my coach. So I used stainless steel screws instead when mounting the new...
I am looking for a J-box for the brake wires. I have power to the front and rear axle, but no power to the center axle. I hate to have to drop the hole belly pan to find it. Thanks Rick
Hello,
We went camping twice already (no more than 200 miles in total) with the new trailer and I noticed that every time I stop the rear axle brakes are hotter than the front axle ones.
I know there is an initial time for the brakes to settle and maybe I'm not over that yet but is there a...
2016 Dynamax Force Brake Controller ?
I can't seem to find the Brake Controller Wiring Harness under the dash.
Do I have to disassemble the dash to find it ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Someone help this nervous lady out. We are set to travel next week. I just don't understand the electric brake set up. Tell me if I have this right -- the trailer brakes are tied into the tow brake. When I apply brakes, the trailer brakes are also engaged. The trailer brakes were "set" at...
