Troubleshooting Brakes Pulsing with Blinkers with Demco SBS Stay in Play System
Updated 11/18/2021 | Published 02/08/2021 >
Question:
I installed a stay and play system to my 2012 jeep wrangler. Now when I use my MH turn signal the brakes pulse. I have looked on line and it said I needed to have a diode added to my system but i also looked on your etrailer expert section and they say my battery needs to be disconnected. can you tell me which of these i should try?

I recently asked Demco about brakes pulsing with the install of the Demco SBS Stay in Play part # SM99251 and they said this was normal if the sensitivity was cranked up too high and near the max setting. Have you set the sensitivity setting of your setup yet.
