Today we're going to be taking a look at the replacement cable for Bargman Breakaway Switches. This is going to fit Bargman Breakaway Switch number 54-85-007. This cable's going to measure forty-eight inches long. It's a steel cable, like a woven steel or braided steel that's very strong and durable. The cable does have a nice protective coating on it. That's going to keep it from fraying, and it's going to keep it from scratching other surfaces.

It does come with the pin, so that is included already installed on this side. The other side just needs to attach to the tow vehicle. That's going to do it for today's look at the replacement cable for the Bargman Breakaway Switch, again switch number 54-85-007.

I recently purchased a used cargo trailer with a severed Breakaway Cable. I went to e-trailer and quickly found the cable I needed. It was sent promptly. There was a question regarding my order that was quickly resolved. The cable fits perfectly and is in use today. 445902

Picked this up as a spare breakaway cable to have on hand if anything should happen to the other one we purchased. Our old one broke coming down the road, so we decided to get this one which is like the original and another one that is sturdier. Nice to have this as a spare in case we have any issues again while on the road. 652992

Perfect fit, the only reason I didn't give 5 stars was $5.99 for economy shipping on a small envelope size package which weighed maybe 2 ouncew and it took like 10 days to receive it, if I recall correctly. 591015

Ask the Experts about this Bargman Accessories and Parts

Replacement Pin for ESCO Breakaway Switch
We have found that the pin on the Replacement 48" Cable for Breakaway Switch # 54-85-002 does fit many models of ESCO breakaway systems. It is designed to fit the Bargman Breakaway Switch # # 54-85-007 and not an ESCO system but based on your photo and the pin on the cable I would be surprised if it did not fit.

Replacement Pin for Bargman Trailer Breakaway Switch
We do offer a Bargman Replacement Pin/Cable for breakaways, part # 54-85-002. Since trailer breakaway switches are easily replaced (they are not brand-specific products) you may instead prefer to replace the whole switch with an item like # 2005-P.

Is Plunger of Replacement 48" Cable # 54-85-002 Available
Just the plunger of the # 54-85-002 is not available so if you were in need of it you'd need to just go with # 54-85-002.

Replacement Cable And Switch Compatible With ESCO Breakaway Switch

Can the Bargman # 54-85-002 Replace the Conntek Cable and Pin for Breakaway Switch Part # 10700
Although they haven't been tested for a fit, I have found that pretty much every breakaway switch cable, like the Bargman # 54-85-002, carry the same features. I would be surprised if it didn't fit your application.

Are Breakaway Kit Cables Universal or Specific to a Breakaway System
The cable part itself you can use from any brand but the pin might be different. If the pin is fine on your breakaway kit and you just need a cable we do carry cables by themselves # RM-8603 I have also included a link to all of the cables with pins that we carry. The cable and pin you referenced, # 54-85-002, is designed for Bargman breakaway switch 54-85-007.

Is the Bargman Breakaway Cable # 54-85-002 Compatible With a Conntek Breakaway Switch
Since the Replacement 48" Cable for Breakaway Switch # 54-85-002 is specifically made for the Bargman Breakaway Switch # 54-85-007, there is no way of knowing if it is a confirmed fit for another brand of switch without physically testing it. I recommend going ahead and purchasing the Replacement Breakaway Switch with Cable and Pin - 48" Long # 54-85-007 and replacing your current switch so that you know that you have a part that is a confirmed fit.

Replacement Breakaway Pin Recommendation for a Bargman Breakaway Trailer Kit
The replacement pin you would need for your Bargman Breakaway system would be the part # 54-85-002. The only thing you would need to check is the condition of your breakaway battery, make sure it is fully charged before you tow the trailer. I attached an FAQ article on breakaway systems for you to check out.

Replacement Break Away Switch with Pin for a Bargman Trailer Break Away Kit
Break away kits have a switch that require a plastic pin. The pin separates two contacts inside the switch. When the pin is pulled the contacts can touch and complete a circuit which sends power to the trailer brakes. If that pin was metal the brakes would be on all the time. You could just replace the switch since it is just 2 wires. That way you would have a whole new switch with the compatible pin already in it. I have included a link to the replacement switches for you to view.

Replacement Breakaway Cable for 2016 R-Pod 180
Trailer breakaway kits are not trailer-specific but a replacement part like the pin and cable does need to match your current breakaway setup. We have such items for Hopkins, Tekonsha, Curt and others and you'll see them all on the linked page. Just match the pin and cable by brand. Here are popular examples of this replacement part: Hopkins # HM20051 Tekonsha # 2010-A Bargman # 54-85-002 Curt # C52020 You can also just replace the entire switch with # 2005-P if you prefer.

Replacement Breakaway Pin Recommendation for Bargman Breakaway Kit
Since you have a Bargman breakaway kit the correct replacement pin and cable would be the part # 54-85-002 which would fit and work well. While the pins between the Bargman and the Wesbar are pretty similar they are different enough to make a difference.

Replacement Bargman Breakaway System Switch Because Pin has Gotten Stuck
All breakaway kits function the same. It's basically just a pin that is released to then complete a circuit which engages the trailer's brakes. Having a pin be stuck after not moving for 10 years isn't too surprising so I wouldn't be alarmed by it. I recommend testing your system more often. As a tip it is best to unplug your trailer from the 7-way when testing. Some brake controllers can be damged. If you need a new switch you can use # 54-85-007. Or if you only need the pin then...
