I have a pop-up camper which is equipped with electric brakes, just got a controller installed to my truck, but there are no nubers reading when I plug the trailor in to the truck. I noticed a black wire is cut. And there is a black wire with a female end, that is just hanging in the wind, could this be my problem?
My husband is very frustrated he is trying to get the wiring for a pop up trailer and a 2003 ford super crew cab to work together. either he has brake lights or he doesn't. he can either get the left and right blinkers to work or they don't. if it is not one thing coming on or working it's another. we leave for vacation on friday june 8 and need help asap
thank you
I've aquired a Kelsey brake controller that has a rotary knob on the right side and a springloaded slide control at the front that slides from right to left, which is marked ENERGISE. Does anyone have info on this model, and also a wiring diagram?

I have a Kelsey Brake Box that doesn't light up anymore under the dash when I press on the brake. When I hook up my RV trailer & turn on the lights, the lights all come on & the turn signals all work but not the brakes. Brake lights come on when I press the brake but no brakes are stopping the RV. Does the box need to be replaced or could it be something else?

Need to know about the wiring diagram on a dodge 1500 truck hemi.I put the connector on the under dash, but where is the wire from out side the fire wall at.
I have 2 trailers that both have trailer brakes. My brakes work great on one trailer but the other trailer only works with the manual brake lever, not the brake pedal. The light on the controller turns green when the trailer is plugged in to the Durango. I have checked the connector contacts.
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

Hook the white wire to the negative of the battery than hook the black wire to a fuse in open slot in your fuse box un your hood make sure that it has a 20 amp fuse in it,after that hook up the black wire to the battery, than hook the red wire to the to the electric brake of your car that under your dash hooks to your brake pedal. finaly you hook up your blue wire to the truck connector. you should have the 6 or 7 hole connector there youll also hook up your tail lights, turn signal, and your brake light. I hope that help

Ed,
The blue wire dose go to the brake box,you should have four wires on the back of the brake box Blue to brake box,white ground,black power and red to brake switch.Remember to use a circuit braker on the black power wire between the sorce of power and the brake box.Good luck and i hope this helped.
I am trying to wire up a brake controler to a 2002 old's silhoutte. what switch on the brake pedal do i wire to, for the red wire. can you please send me a wiring diagram?
I have a Tekonsha Electric Brake switch. My problem is that I am not getting power from the wire at the trailer hitch. Is there anyway to check the power behind the switch? I know the wire coming from the brake switch has power to the controller, but should the black or white wire have power before the brake is applied, or does the switch just use the power from the brake switch to send power to the brakes?
There is a socket to the left of the brake pedal on the fw. I just picked up the wire harness from GM to go with my Reese digital controller. You may need a 40amp fuse as well that goes under the hood.
