Hi there trailer owners today, we're gonna be taking a look at Hopkins replacement, breakaway switch cable and pin. Now on your trailer, if for whatever reason if maybe some kid thought it'd be funny and he pulled the pin outta your switch or you did have a catastrophic disconnect and it pulled the pin and something happened where the pin got damaged in the whole event, and your switch is still good, and you just need to replace the pin, or maybe you had pulled the pin, cause some people do think that this is an acceptable way to park your trailer by just pulling the pin. You really don't want to do that. That is not a good way to park your trailer, chock the wheels. But if you had done that in the past and you've lost your pin, forgot to put it back in. We do have replacements available here at etrailer.
This one is specifically designed for the new style of Hopkins breakaway switches. This will work with the new style and also the LED models that Hopkins has. We're showing off just one of the regular new styles not one of the LEDs today and the pin is missing from it there. So this is what you'll get. You get plenty of wire lead here as well, to your trailer.
The pin simply inserts in the horizontal position. So just like that, and that works properly. If you were, did lose your pin and it's been gone for a long time, it's possible dirt, debris, and corrosion has occurred in that switch. So you would want to test it out before just putting this right back into service. So make sure you pull your pin and verify that your brake supply.
And we're gonna go ahead and just cut our cable here. Now that we've got everything up and running. This is what's going to go to your hitch to make your connection. You can see we've got plenty of length of lead here to go over, to make our connection. And that completes our look at Hopkins replacement, breakaway switch, cable and pin..

Has held up well. No sign of wear.
The Hopkins breakaway cable is apparently not the most common type, as I was unable to obtain one from nearby RV parts suppliers. I was very happy to find one online at etrailer. It is an exact duplicate of the one being replaced. The price was reasonable and it arrived when they estimated it would.
I order it ,Got it. simple
Nicole knew just what I was needing for my car hauler. It was good to speak to someone who knew what I was talking about. in the future.is a asset to etrailer. Whenever I need something in the future etrailer is who I will call first . Thank You
Being able to purchase just the pin and cable here saved me from replacing the whole break away system which appeared to be my only other (expensive) option.
brake away cables appear to a little difficult to find. The plastic piece on this one, would not fit my current switch. But I cut the cable and installed on my old one. Much nicer than my old ratty cable. Cable well made and covered in plastic.
No need to call the company who manufactures the braking system on your trailer b/c this item was perfect. I'm very happy with the item and would get it again for such a good price and inexpensive cost.
Great help from Customer Service! This was my first order from etrailer, and it went so smoothly. I was worried that the little part I ordered would be the incorrect one, but Jesse M. from customer service knew exactly what I needed and assured me it was correct. Not only was it correct but the delivery was as promised 2 day, delivered promptly on time. Next time I will feel real comfortable ordering everything I need from etrailer!
perfect replacement breakaway pin & c able
I purchased a replacement Break- away pin for my trailer. My experience was quick and easy. Had my part in two days and back to work with my trailer. Will definitely be purchasing from them again next time I need more parts!
It's a break away brake cable. It fit and should work fine if ever needed.
Works great, just as good a OEM!!
This replacement fits like OEM. And a bonus, the cable comes with the purchase. Tried to get one from the manufacture and they just send the plastic piece.
Although I was told that the product was going to take about 7 days to ship it got to me in 3.
Thanks guys! Awesome customer service and great products!

Exact Replacement for what I Needed. If you need parts for your Trailer Etrailer is the place to go!!! Quality, Price, Speed of Delivery AAA+++.
I was in immediate need of this part as the one from our vehicle was "borrowed" while it was parked at my wife's work place. I contacted etrailer via phone and was professionally and personally taken care of. Delivery was quick and the part was the correct one.
Great Company!
It's a wire. It' got just the right amount of wiriness.
Just like their ad states "a great product at an outstanding price".
An exact replacement.
