How does an electric brake controller work?
Mike asked:
I just bought a travel trailer through a private sale and although my tow vehicle came with the factory tow package, I was told I still need to get an electric brake controller, stabilizer bars and a friction brake. Can someone explain what these are and how they work. I know the basic function of the brake controller is to activate the trailers brakes but does it just connect to the wiring or does it somehow connect to the pedal? ***Attention veteran RV’rs. Have no fear. I plan on having these things professionally installed and will give the public plenty of notice before my dumb *** gets on the open road.****
