Question:
Just read your answer to KEN about the same issue. My question is. If I have to disconnect the battery, than how do I power the brake buddy that you recommend? Thanks for the info

Helpful Expert Reply:
For vehicles that have to have the battery disconnected when flat towing the solution for powering a supplemental braking system is the outlet kit part # RM-9332. This wires to the battery directly which allows you to get a power source for just the braking system while leaving the rest of the vehicle wiring turned off.
