Roadmaster InvisiBrake Flat Tow Brake System - Preset
The braking system and the lights are working, one year after I bought them. However, I am towing a 2016 Keep Patriot, and about 2_500 miles after install, the system started making an annoying clicking noise when I enter the Patriot, which stops after about 10 seconds and then starts up again, usually a minute or so later, for another 10 or 15 seconds. etrailer first said that they had never heard of.such a thing, then said that there are otherwise comments for Keep Patriot owners on forums. Still have no.fix. Also, at first I did not know that to store the tow bar, it must be pulled up so that the post fitting can moe to the position where it fits into the hole.in the smaii yellow bracket, which works well when used correctly. And store the coiled.wide in your tower vehicle.to prevent corrosion which will interfere with its function.
I installed the InvisiBrake on my 2019 Ford Fiesta SE Hatchback with the great help from my wife. Everything worked fine with the exception of the dash mounted light in the Coach. The light never would illuminate even though the brake was working perfectly. Spent many hours on the phone with Roadmaster tech service personnel. I finally gave up after hours of troubleshooting and installed a Roadmaster Brake Lite Switch. Problem solved, so I thought. Worked well for a couple thousand miles and then it didn't. I bought a new Brake Lite Switch which is yet to be installed. The InvisiBrake installation on the Fiesta is tricky because the firewall is completely covered with parts and wires. I was able to locate an area where a wiring harness exited and run all wires and vacuum line along side the harness. The InvisiBrake is mounted under the driver seat toward the back. I use a small mirror from the back seat floor to read the dial on the face of the InvisiBrake when I want to check the pressure.

Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit - Ford
Kit for perfectly. A little challenging to hold bracket in place and get nuts to bolt to dash aligned and started. Helpful hint to remove obdII bracket to make it easier to bolt bracket in place, then reinstall afterward. Etrailer service was excellent to do business with!
This switch makes the braking movement turn on the light within our toad vehicle since our vehicle has a dead switch when in tow mode. So far it has been working fine just hard to see the tow display light maybe have to extend the display light to inside the coach dash.

Roadmaster BrakeMaster for RVs w/ Hydraulic Brakes - Proportional
Kit fits great! Hooked up a 2004 Workhorse to a 2002 Jeep Liberty. It might be preferable to be handy with some advanced mechanical skills and tools to install this efficiently. Directions are great but you do need to figure out your own locations for certain items like the break-away reservoir, compressor, routing lines and wires out of harms way, but not bad at all. Parts are great, everything there but added a couple different wiring splices of my own.
Your customer service leaves nothing lacking, and this follow-up from you is so out of character for the many web sites I have purchased from over the years. I am impressed by you and your company. I bought the tow bar and the brake system for my Equinox, and installed them my self (I am 70 years old) - and with your provided instructions and video, I had no problems (even though I was surprised by the number of parts and detail that went into the assemblies). Both systems have worked very well, with no problems. I am completely satisfied with them, and have told my friends and traveling acquaintances about your company. Thanks for your follow-up!

Roadmaster Brake-Lite Relay Kit for Towed Vehicles
Does NOT work for 2021 and new F-150's. There is a lot of bad advice regarding this in the Q&A section that etrailer needs to update. Associates incorrectly have been including the Brake-Lite Relay kit in the list of items needed to tow late-model Ford trucks. However, with my 2023 F-150 XLT (push button start), it is simply impossible to install. The new Ford trucks do not even have a brake switch on the pedal and there is no visible wiring under the dash. I called Roadmaster, who immediately confirmed that they were aware of the issue. THE RELAY SWITCH IS NOT AN OPTION FOR 2021 AND NEWER F-150's. The only way to overcome the brake light override issue is to wait for the truck to enter "sleep mode." This occurs when you remove the key and don't open the door for 15 minutes. After that, the truck's electronics (body control module" shut off. Then the brake pedal can be pressed and the lights do not illuminate. Thus no relay is needed, you just have to wait 15 minutes. The motorhome wiring harness will work normally through the truck's tail lights, assuming you have installed the smart diode wiring kit for variable voltage. This part works great.
Self installed, and easy to do if you just follow the videos and read the instructions. Quality hardware and fully functional after a full year of use. Jeep JK

Roadmaster Even Brake Portable Flat Tow Brake System - Proportional
Very touchy on where it is sitting on the floor in front of the seat. Must be lined up almost perfectly. Heavy and clumsy to get in and out and connected to brake pedal. Need to add an on/off switch to the power line on the controller otherwise it is transmitting a signal on Jeep brands all the time that interferes with the remote key lock. Quite disappointed with hit and miss braking operation while in use and sending braking signal to driver when it is not braking.
I bought a complete flat tow parts fir a jeep wrangler. I decided I could install myself. Your installation videos made it nearly a piece of cake. From a quote I got from a RV service business, I saved several thousand dollars installing myself. etrailer is the place to for your RV needs!

Roadmaster BrakeMaster for RVs w/ Air or Air-Over-Hydraulic Brakes - Proportional
The install on my Ford Maverick is clean and functional, so this is more of a customer service review... excellent customer service! During the 4-day towing set-up install, the forecast was for freezing temps and my rig was not winterized. I called in mid panic and the motorhome was moved indoors. A few months after using the tow set-up, a minor problem developed. I called and the CSR apologized and said, I can see how that might be frustrating, and a replacement cable (slightly longer) was sent free of charge.
This braking system does what it's suppose to do, smooth proportional braking between motorhome air brakes and the tow vehicle. The only reason I did not rate at 5 stars is that there is a slight misalignment of air cylinder mounting bracket and 2022 Jeep Gladiator brake pedal.
