Redarc Tow-Pro Elite LED Not Showing Calibration With Trailer Disconnected
Question:
Hello, I recently installed a Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller in a 2016 Toyota Tundra. It doesnt appear to be calibrating. When I push the dial, the blue LED appears then dims, but that is the only lights I see when the truck is on. No lights appear while driving. Does the trailer have to be connected for calibration to take place? Thank you for your time.

Expert Reply:
What you are experiencing with your # RED44FR is perfectly normal. The brake controller will still calibrate without the trailer connected, but you won't have the LED indication showing this is happening. Once a trailer is connected you will see a solid blue light. However, it wouldn't hurt to hook up the trailer and make sure everything is functioning properly.
