[AT] Trailer brake controler

[jahaze at aol.com]

It's the break away system.? My description was bad.? It does have it's own battery and had the wiring diagram in the box.? I have never owned a trailer with one on it before, but it seemed like a good idea (it was on sale for $24).? I was just wondering if there was anything I should be aware of before I try to hook it up.? I also wonder if you guy's think it's a good idea to have one, or is it just a big waste of time and additional headaches that I don't need.? The box said they are required on trailers in all states,?I didn't know if this was true or not, but if it is, I'd better have one on my trailer.? In case it matters, my trailer is a dual tandem 20+5 gooseneck flatbed.



Enjoy, Joe?

I am a little confused, Joe.  I am familiar with a brake controller to apply 
trailer brakes when stopping, and a break away system to apply trailer brakes 
from on board battery power in the case of an unhook.  Mine are two separate 
things. Which did you purchase?

see if there is anything I didn't know I needed, until I see it.? This Saturday 
there was a break-away trailer brake controler half off the regular price.? My 
trailer had one once about a time, as there are remnants of the original 
housing, but that's about all.? Needless to say, I bought the controler and plan 
on putting it on my gooseneck trailer, during the intallation, is there anything 
I should be on the lookout for?? Am I wasting my time with something like this 
for a gooseneck trailer??
