Question:
I have a 2013 Palomino Puma 26-RLSS and need to replace the breakaway lanyard/pin assembly. Also, does this trailer have a separate brake system battery and if so, where is it located? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
Since your travel trailer has onboard house batteries, the break away brake will be powered by those. To replace the breakaway switch and/or cable I recommend the Fastway # FA80-00-2040 which includes the tongue mounted switch. If you have the switch and only need the lanyard I recommend the Fastway # FA80-01-2204. I have this same line attached to my travel trailer. I like that the coiled line keeps it away from the ground and the large carabiener clip makes it each to hook on to the ears on your hitch.
