Unit flashes the lights on your single- or tandem-axle trailer while also activating its brakes if it disconnects from your vehicle. This way, not only will your trailer stop, but the flashing lights will also alert others on the road to the danger.
Features:
Specs:
Note: A breakaway system is required by law in most states for trailers that are equipped with electric brakes and have a GTW of at least 3,000 lbs.
The integrated charger keeps the included battery charged and ready to go. At any time, if you would like to see what the state of the rechargeable battery is, just push the green button and LEDs will light up to indicate the battery's status. If it's green, it means the battery is fully charged. Yellow shows it's currently charging, and red indicates a low battery.

ICU function not working correctly, after reaching out for a refund/exchange option being told shipping cost is on you, item has to be in new condition (even tho i clearly stated that it has been installed) so yeah not great
This unit is more complex than what I wanted if you forget to reset it will drain the battery especially during the day when you don’t always see the lights flashing. An audible alarm would help
This unit works great! Once I reviewed the wiring diagram carefully and recognized that wire colors did not control how to hook things up, and that you had to make sure of the wire functions on the plug side, hookup was a snap. However, this kit has the ICU unit which is supposed to cause trailer lights to flash in event of disconnect, but the wiring diagram does not have any diagram for the extra wire which controls the ICU. In addition, no wiring diagram on the etrailer site shows what to do with that wire. I hooked it up to the marker lights of the trailer, but when I test the unit, no lights flash. I suggest etrailer add instructions for this connection on its site.
No issue just great service
