Video Transcript for Review of Bright Way Trailer Breakaway Kit - 3802348
Today we're going to take a look at the replacement breakaway switch for the Bright Way trailer breakaway kit. Now this breakaway switch will signal your Bright Way breakaway kit to bring your trailer safely to stop by activating its electric brakes should it become disconnected while being towed. This will replace the switch portion that came with your Bright Way trailer breakaway kit and you do need to remember a breakaway system is required by law in most states for trailers that are equipped with electric brakes, and have a gross towing weight capacity of at least 3000 pounds. And the thing about them is, besides being required, it will also offer you the peace of mind that in an emergency situation where the trailer might come detached from your tow vehicle, this part will help stop that trailer and prevent an even more dangerous situation. The breakaway switch will install on your trailer's frame.You can see the bracket here with the hole in it. So drilling is usually required.
You just put a screw in there to hold it into place. And basically how the switch works is, this is the wiring. There's two wires is wired to your trailer brake system, and then this braided steel cable here with the loop on each end, this end you'll run to your tow vehicle and hook it to your tow vehicle. So what happens in a situation where the trailer might come detached from the tow vehicle, it'll pull this line, which will remove that pin from the switch and that'll cause it to activate your trailer brakes and keep the trailer from a runaway situation.Now the wiring installation is usually if you have a Bright Way breakaway kit, usually the lid on the battery box will have the wiring installation show you where the wires go, but basically on the breakaway switch you'll have two wires to connect, a blue and a black. Basically the blue wire will connect to the blue wire that's on your battery box and the black wire will connect to the trailer brake wire from your trailer connector to the brakes.
And on these cables are the wiring length. The wiring length is about 48" long, and the cable length is about 42" long.But that should do it for the review on the replacement breakaway switch for the Bright Way trailer breakaway kit.

The breakaway is not an optional piece of equipment so when it broke in a freak incident I needed a new one right away. It came quickly and was installed easily.

Actually didn't need the whole assembly, just the pin, but it was actually cheaper to buy and replace the entire switch. Works just as well as the original that came with my trailer 4 years ago.

- Replacement Cable and Pin for Bright Way Breakaway Switch on Trailer 2348The replacement pin and cable you need for your Bright Way breakaway switch part # 3802348 is the part # 3802350!

- Is Bright Way Replacement Breakaway Switch 2348 AvailableWe do have exactly what you are looking for, the Replacement Breakaway Switch for Bright Way Trailer Breakaway Kits # 3802348. The "380" in front of the 2348 is just our part number identifier that we use for Bright Way products. For example, the Replacement Cable and Pin for Bright Way Trailer Breakaway Kits # 3802350 is part 2350, but also has the "380" in front of it. I have added a link to a video review for you to check out as well of the Replacement Breakaway Switch for Bright...
view full answer... - Does Brand Matter When Replacing Trailer Breakaway Switch KitTrailer breakaway systems as a whole are universal. The only issue you can sometimes see with regards to brand/manufacturer compatibility is when somebody is wanting to replace just a component from the system, such as the pin/cable by itself. The Bright way Breakaway Switch # 3802348 that you referenced will work great as a replacement on your trailer, regardless of what brand switch you are replacing. I have attached a short video review below that you can check out as well.
view full answer... - Replacement Breakaway Switch for Trailer With Pin that Won't Fully InsertSince there isn't a trick to pushing the pin of a breakaway system back in it would seem like yours is damaged and the easiest and best solution it to replace what you have with a new switch like the # 3802348 that you referenced. Since all of the breakaway switches operate the exact same they are interchangeable between brands so this would work perfectly with what you have.
view full answer... - Bright Way Group Breakaway Switch Wire SetupThe two wires that come from the breakaway switch # 3802348 need to be connected to power and the brake signal switch. The black wire needs to have power. Once you have that connection made you then can locate your brake signal wire from your brakes and connect the blue wire to that. This way when the switch is pulled, it completes the circuit sending power to your brakes, thus locking them up. As long as one wire is connected to power and one is connected to ground, the switch will still work.
view full answer... - Replacement Breakaway Switch Pin For Demco Stay-In-Play Duo Flat Towing Braking SystemAssuming you only need the pin and lanyard, we offer the replacement as part # SM99905. If you need the switch, the pin and the lanyard you can use # 3802348 as a replacement. The switch isn't specific to the system, but the pin is specific to the switch.
view full answer... - Replacement Breakaway Pin Solution for 2018 Grand Design ReflectionIf your 2018 Grand Design Reflection happened to have a Fastway breakaway kit installed on it yes the replacement plunger pin # FA80-01-2206 would be correct replacement but we have no way to verify that. I do have an easy solution that would for sure work though. Since all of the breakaway systems operate the same way they are universal so you could just replace the entire switch with the part # 3802348 and you'd be set.
view full answer... - Solution for Needing Replacement Breakaway Pin for Unknown SwitchThat looks very similar to the Replacement Breakaway Switch part # 3802348 from Bright Way Group. But when it's unknown like this the best solution is an entire new switch setup like # 3802348 since unlike the pins the switches are all universal with each other.
