Expert Reply:

Really the only way to tell if you have manual or self-adjusting brakes is to remove the hub and take a look inside. If you can see a cable running at an angle (see included photo), then you have self adjusting brakes like the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting # AKEBRK-35-SA.

If you do not have that cable, then you have manual adjusting brakes like the Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-35
