Expert Reply:
Sounds like your Curt Echo Under Dash Brake Controller part # C27JR that you referenced is installed properly but is set at too low of a setting to really feel the braking power. I would recommend increasing the max braking output level as well as the sensitivity until you find the setting that works best.
