Product received on time. About 5 days since I live in NW. Electric brake installation went very good after watching install video. My trailer had a four way flat cable. I converted it to 6 way because my 2007 Winnebago View on 2006 Dodge Sprinter had the 6 pin. After hooking everything up my brake lights didn't work. The running and blinkers did work. I did a bit of research online. My View has a 3 filament rear light system meaning the brake and blinker have their own circuit. My trailer and most out there combine the brake and blinker onto one circuit. So basically it's a 2 filament system. Bottom line: going from a 3 to 2 filament system you need a "tail light converter". I added the converter into my RV at the hitch 6pin round connector. It was wired the standard way as 6 pin go. The brake output wire labeled X or S on connector was removed and added to brake output line of converter. My converter had 5 pins on input and four on the output. White being ground on both side, brown is running lights, yellow as left turn and green as right turn. The converter basically combines the brake light and blinker functions onto one line.
Once I installed the brake controller this wire run from controller to hitch. I connected this side to S or X where I removed the brake light wire earlier. So now my electric brakes work on my trailer as do the brake lights.

I received the Pollak Circuit Breaker in good timing. The mounting bracket was mounted at a 90 degree angle from how it was advertised, but there was still plenty of room on my camper trailer frame to mount it. It works great! Fixed my converter for $10. including shipping.

I INSTALLED THIS IN PLACE OF ORIGINAL CIRCUIT BREAKER, ON OUR 2015 NASH 24H TRAVEL TRAILER. THE ORIGINAL TOOK IN WATER AND FAILED. I MOUNTED THIS POLLAK CIRCUIT BREAKER INSIDE A 6" LONG PIECE OF 1 1/2" ANGLE, AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY FOR THE SITUATION. THANKS VERY MUCH

I need a resetting thermal fuse for a child's electric powered fire truck that I was refurbishing for a friend. Etrailer had the item for a great price , it arrived 2 days later as promised, making twin 5 year olds plus one 58 year old kid very happy.



by:

Use this every time i install a brake controller It works great



by:

No problems in 1 year, and the circuit breaker hasn't tripped, so I guess it is fine. Sort of hard to tell with a circuit breaker. :-)

Exactly what I needed. Etrailer website very informative. Always find what you need there.

  • Brake Controller Installed in 2021 Chevy Silverado Z71 Trail Boss Not Powering Up
    Assuming that you've found the correct connector for the # 3064-P brake control harness which is located under the dash to the left of the steering column, I'd wager than you have a fuse missing in the power distribution box in the engine compartment on the passenger side. Check fuse location # 84, and make sure that there's a fuse installed there. If the fuse is missing or blown, you can obtain a replacement from your local auto parts store.

  • Brake Controller Recommendation for a Truck with Air Brakes and a Trailer with Electric Brakes
    The trailer brakes work on a separate circuit than the lights. You have a couple of options to control the electric brakes on the trailer. One option is to use an air over electric brake control, # HA100400C. This unit connects to the air brakes on the truck and when the brakes are applied it sends an electric signal back to the trailer brakes. The other option, and what I would do, is to use an electric brake controller like # 90885. For either of these controllers, the red wire attaches...

  • Curt Echo Not Working Plugged Into 2016 Ford F-150
    Hi Brendan, The issue is with the wiring on your 2016 Ford F-150, as the 12 volt power is sometimes off on the 7-way if you're not moving, as you can see from the cut out of the instructions I added for the Curt Echo # C51180. So the 12 volt power needs to be routed directly to the positive terminal on your battery with 10 gauge wire # 10-1-1 and 30 amp circuit breaker # PK54530.

  • Do 7-Way Trailer Connectors have Amp Ratings for Pins or the Whole Socket
    Most if not all trailer wiring harnesses/connectors use larger wires for the 12 volt and ground circuits compared to the other circuits (lights). The sockets themselves don't have an amperage rating so you will go by the draw of the things drawing power. In order to figure out what the lights are drawing you could connect the trailer to the tow vehicle and turn on a function while testing the trailer side wiring behind the connector with a meter to see what sort of reading you get. Usually...

  • Troubleshooting No Trailer Running Lights with 2017 Ram 1500
    If the trailer running lights circuit isn't active on the 7-Way of your 2017 Ram 1500 then you will want to check the 20 amp blue fuse located in the F29 position inside the power distribution box under the hood. The online version of the owner's manual for your Ram shows this fuse as being in charge of this particular circuit. If replacing the fuse does not resolve the issue please let me know and I will be happy to look into this further.

  • Connecting Ignition Switched Power From 2015 Toyota Prius v to Enclosed Trailer
    You will need to use a circuit tester like # PTW2979 to find a wire in your 2015 Toyota Prius v that is hot only when you use your key (ignition switched power). When you do that you can simply wire in the Battery Isolation Solenoid # PK5231201, which should be wired like in the accompanying diagram with 10 gauge wire # 10-1-1. I have added a link to a video review of the solenoid for you to check out.

  • Towing a Trailer with Electric Brakes with a Semi Tractor with Air Brakes
    To tow your trailer that uses an RV style 7-way blade style connector with your semi that has a 7-pin connector, you need to construct an adapter that will also combine the brake signal into the right and left directional signal pins. This can be done by using a female 7-pin socket # PK11720 to accept the plug from the semi, a tail light converter # 119178 and a female 7-way RV blade-style socket # PK12-707E. The converter would be wired in between both sockets to combine the brake light...

  • Installing a Trailer Brake Controller on a 2012 Dodge Caravan with Tow Package
    I spoke with a colleague who worked at Chrysler and he stated that they do not put the trailer hitch and 7-Way wiring on the Grand Caravan at the factory. That is something that the dealer installs. In any event here is what you will need to do. The brake controller will need to be hardwired into the vehicle. The white wire on the brake controller will need to get connected directly to the negative terminal on the vehicle battery. The black wire will need to connect to a 30 amp circuit...

  • How to Hard Wire Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller
    Trailer brake controllers like the Prodigy P2 # 90885 use a 4-wire hook up. The wire functions and connections are as follows: BLACK wire carries 12V power and connects to the vehicle + battery post through a 20- or 30-amp circuit breaker like # PK54220PL or # PK54530. RED wire carries the brake light input signal and connects to the cold side of the brake light switch (the side that carries a signal only when you press the pedal). WHITE wire is ground and connects to the negative battery...

  • Replacement Brake Release Handle Needed for the Husky Brute Electric Trailer Jack # HT87247
    The only thing special about the included circuit breaker is that it has some wiring included with it for easy splicing. Any 30 amp circuit breaker that you would find at a local electrical/home improvement store, like part # PK54530, is perfectly acceptable. If the jack hasn't been used very much and the switch wasn't allowing you to operate the jack then that leads me to believe that the battery that powers the jack has been depleted. If the battery is in good working order then the...

  • Installation of Electric Brake Controller on 2012 Isuzu NPR Connect
    For your Pilot 2-6 Brake Electronic Brake Controller - Time Delayed # 80550, you will need to connect the black power wire to the battery of your vehicle using a circuit breaker like # PK54530 and # 12-1-1 wire. Then you will connect the red wire on your controller to the cold side of your brake light switch. From my research it looks like that is the green with white tracer, but you can check it with your circuit tester # PTW2993. The correct wire will show no power when the brake pedal...

  • What Size Circuit Breakers Can be Used on a Trailer for Electric Jack and Brake Functions
    If those circuit breakers are indeed for the jack and the trailer brakes then they are likely redundant since the 12 volt circuit and brake circuit are already circuit protected on the vehicle side. Electric trailer jacks also usually have an internal circuit breaker and/or in line fuse. If you want to replace them you can. If you can verify what they go to as the jack and brakes then jack the specs on the jack to determine its amperage draw. Usually electric jacks on trailers are rated...

  • Can Curt Echo Brake Controller be Installed in 4-Way/7-Way Adapter and Still Work
    That's actually a really good question! All the Curt Echo # C51180 needs to operate properly are the basic trailer lighting functions (found on a typical 4-Way), and then 12V power. If you already have a 4-Way/7-Way adapter like part # C57672 then all you'll need to do is run a length of 10 Gauge Wire # 10-1-1 to a 30A Circuit Breaker # PK54530 and then to the positive battery post on your tow vehicle. If you don't already have an adapter then you can just get the Upgrade Kit # ETBC7L...

  • Recommended Brake Controller For A 2004 Holiday Rambler Admiral
    Hey Marcel, There unfortunately isn't a plug-and-play wire harness available for your Workhorse chassis so you would have to go with a splice-in universal wire harness. I recommend going with the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195, which is going to come with one of these harnesses and you'll have to wire it in the following manner: Black - To 12v power (vehicle battery) with an inline 30 amp circuit breaker # PK54530.

  • Recommended Brake Controller And Wiring For 2004 Chevrolet Blazer
    The brake controller I recommend is the P3, part # 90195. This is a proportional brake controller that applies the brakes with the same intensity as the brakes on the vehicle. It sounds like you have a 7-way trailer connector already installed. You will need to look at the back of the 7-way you said you have on your Blazer. If it has an adapter that looks like the photo I have attached then you can simply unplug the 7-way on your Blazer and use part # HM40975. The # HM40975 has a 4-way...

  • Troubleshooting Power Issues on the Hopkins Agility Electric Brake Controller
    It sounds like there is either no power going to the black power wire on the Hopkins Agility Brake Controller, # HM47295, or the power wire is connected to the wrong circuit. I would recommend using a circuit tester, like part # PTW2993, to test the black wire coming from the brake controller. You should have 12-volt power at all times going to the brake controller from the vehicle battery. If you do not get a constant signal, then either the black power wire is not connected to a 12-volt...

    In order to install a brake controller on your motor home you will need at most 3 items. First, if there is no trailer connector on the RV you will start by adding a 4-Way using # 119178KIT. After the 4-Way is installed or if there is already one on the trailer, you will need a 4 and 7-Way installation kit # ETBC7. I have included some links that will help explain this installation.
