What Are The Wire for Coming From a Trailer Surge Brake Actuator

Question:

What is the wire coming out on the side of the unit, where does it hook up too? Does it attach to the safety lines? It is loose from something and I do not know what to reattach it too. I took a picture on my cell phone and can forward if a cell number is provided.

In regards to a surge brake actuator like the Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator part # T43397007K, the only wires that will be present are on models with a reverse lockout solenoid like the Solenoid Valve for Titan Brake Actuators with Reverse Lockouts part # T4748800. In which case, one wire will be for a ground and the other will be hooked up to the reverse circuit through a trailer connector either a 5-way or 7-way.

Unfortunately, I can't provide wire color specifics for any one particular trailer.
