- Hello Josh. The TieDown 660 Hydraulic Actuator is a surge brake actuator. The Dexter Adapter Module # DX35FR is only for electric-over-hydraulic actuators, so this is not going to solve your problem. If the brakes are not functioning, I would have to suspect a problem with the surge brake actuator or potentially a brake line. I suggest inspecting the trailer and the actuator. You will be looking for any clogged or damaged brake lines. Also check your actuator to make sure it is moving fluid...

- If the issue is on the vehicle side of your 1999 Izuzu Trooper this will likely mean the converter module which combines the wiring itself is damaged and needs replaced. We do have the Curt 4-Way # C55339 which plugs into a factory connector and only has a single brake light input. This tells me the internal portion of the module is failing to sent power to the right brake light if your right turn signal and left brake lights are functioning correctly as you said.

- Hey Isaac! While we don't have one specific all in one kit we do have every component you will need to update your trailer's lighting and brakes.
I recommend using the Trailer Wiring Kit item # ET7WK. This includes a 7-Way connector, a junction box to provide you with a organized and weather proof storage area for all your wiring connections, and all the necessary hardware.
You will then just need additional 16 gauge wiring item # 16-4B-1 for the light circuits and 10 gauge wiring item...
view full answer... - Can Poorly Installed Breakaway Battery Kit Cause Brake Controller to see Disconnected Trailer
- Hey Jerry,
If your breakaway kit isn't hooked up properly I suppose it could give that "trailer disconnected" code on your brake controller, but it would have to be that the wiring going to your brakes is disconnected on the circuit somewhere for that to happen.
I think you have some damaged wiring or a bad connection somewhere that needs to be fixed - this could even be where your trailer 7-Way plugs into your vehicle 7-Way socket.
I'm attaching a wiring diagram that can be used for...

- Hey Eddie, I do have an option for you but the closest axle we offer for what you're looking for is the Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles # e93GR which measures 94" at the hub face and 79" at the spring center.
Since this'll be used to replace a trailer axle with a 93" hub face, the wheels/tires are going to stick out a 1/2" more on each side At this point, the spring seats can then be cut and rewelded.
To convert your presumably surge brakes to electric, you're going to need...

view full answer... - Is There an Adapter To Let The DeeMaxx Disc Brake Calipers Accept a Banjo Bolt?
- The Adapter Port # DE73MR you found is an exact replacement for the one on the Caliper # DE86VR. This is designed to accept a brake line like the Kodiak # bh-3mfs90ff-1-5 and not a banjo type connection. You are going to have to alter your brake lines by adding in Tee's # BH-T-3FIF along with the hoses your trailer is going to require.
