Can an Electric Brake Controller Stay Plugged In When Towing Surge Brake Trailer  

Updated 02/22/2016 | Published 02/21/2016

Question:

Hi, I installed a prodigy brake controller on my 2005 Chevy Tahoe, I added it so that my pop brakes would work better. I have hydraulic surge brakes on the trailer, as I read more about this, I understand that I dont need the controller after all..... So i have it attached already, can I pull the trailer without issue with it plugged in? Or do I have to uninstall it?

Expert Reply:

You can leave the brake controller installed on your 2005 Chevy Tahoe and the surge brakes of the trailer will still operate just fine.

If you ever end up towing a trailer with electric brakes you will be prepared!
