Faulty Actuation Control Failed My Expectations

Based on my experience, this actuation control didn't live up to its promise of smooth operations. The installation was a bit of a hassle with not-so-clear instructions. But the worst part is that it didn't work properly and caused major troubles while I was on the road.

Pros
  • None
Cons
  • Poor quality, complicated installation

Defective product: trailer accessories

This brake control unit is suitable for light trucks. That's not enough for a heavy semi-trailer, although it could be used to tow a 5-wheel trailer.

Pros
  • automobiles
Cons
  • operating speed

The only choice in its price range

I had one of these controllers and will be buying another in the future. When properly adjusted, they modulate your brakes in proportion to your downforce. Insert it into the application line in the sensor for best results. You can also activate it with the trailer handbrake and steer the trailer independently of the tractor, just like with regular trailer air brakes. There is also a lever on the device. The control lever is also an adjustment, by turning it you can change the trailer braking…

Pros
  • Trailer Accessory
Cons
  • Not sure
