Question:
I have a echo and it is locking the brakes up. It worked fine for several trip but now locks up with the slightest brake pressure. I tried to the app and repair plus plug into the plug and then to the trailer.

Expert Reply:
When it comes to your Curt Echo # C51180 locking up your trailer brakes you will first need to completely unplug the Echo from both the trailer and the truck, delete the app from your phone, and then reinstall the app back onto the phone. Finally plug the Echo into the vehicle's 7 way by itself until the Echo has a solid blue light. This will completely reset your settings and you can re-pair your Echo.
