Product received on time. About 5 days since I live in NW. Electric brake installation went very good after watching install video. My trailer had a four way flat cable. I converted it to 6 way because my 2007 Winnebago View on 2006 Dodge Sprinter had the 6 pin. After hooking everything up my brake lights didn't work. The running and blinkers did work. I did a bit of research online. My View has a 3 filament rear light system meaning the brake and blinker have their own circuit. My trailer and most out there combine the brake and blinker onto one circuit. So basically it's a 2 filament system. Bottom line: going from a 3 to 2 filament system you need a "tail light converter". I added the converter into my RV at the hitch 6pin round connector. It was wired the standard way as 6 pin go. The brake output wire labeled X or S on connector was removed and added to brake output line of converter. My converter had 5 pins on input and four on the output. White being ground on both side, brown is running lights, yellow as left turn and green as right turn. The converter basically combines the brake light and blinker functions onto one line.
Once I installed the brake controller this wire run from controller to hitch. I connected this side to S or X where I removed the brake light wire earlier. So now my electric brakes work on my trailer as do the brake lights.

I received the Pollak Circuit Breaker in good timing. The mounting bracket was mounted at a 90 degree angle from how it was advertised, but there was still plenty of room on my camper trailer frame to mount it. It works great! Fixed my converter for $10. including shipping.

I INSTALLED THIS IN PLACE OF ORIGINAL CIRCUIT BREAKER, ON OUR 2015 NASH 24H TRAVEL TRAILER. THE ORIGINAL TOOK IN WATER AND FAILED. I MOUNTED THIS POLLAK CIRCUIT BREAKER INSIDE A 6" LONG PIECE OF 1 1/2" ANGLE, AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY FOR THE SITUATION. THANKS VERY MUCH

I need a resetting thermal fuse for a child's electric powered fire truck that I was refurbishing for a friend. Etrailer had the item for a great price , it arrived 2 days later as promised, making twin 5 year olds plus one 58 year old kid very happy.

Use this every time i install a brake controller It works great
by: Dave 11/20/2021
No problems in 1 year, and the circuit breaker hasn't tripped, so I guess it is fine. Sort of hard to tell with a circuit breaker. :-)

- Will The Stealth Hitches Allow For Towing a Car With a 2020 BMW X5 M Competition? The Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # SH22MR is rated for towing up to 6,000lbs with 600lbs of tongue weight. You will need to confirm the towing capacity of your 2020 BMW X5 M Competition with your BMW dealer to determine the vehicles towing capacity and if it is enough for your specific car and trailer. For a brake controller I recommend Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED52VR. This has a small dash mounted control knob which provides a clean appearance....

They do not currently offer a specific replacement circuit breaker for your Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-3755 but they did mention that it is a 30 amp circuit breaker so you can use the # PK54530 as a replacement. I included videos for both of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

- What is the Extra Wire for on the 2011 Toyota Tundra Brake Controller Wiring HarnessYou are correct, if your 2011 Toyota Tundra is equipped with the factory towing package the fifth wire would be an illumination circuit tied into the tail light switch on your vehicle. This circuit is not used for any brake controller that we carry at this time. To wire the PRIMUS IQ Electronic Brake Controller, item # TK90160 on your Tundra you can use the brake controller wiring adapter for Toyota , item # 3040-P. The black connector will plug into the brake controller and the white...
view full answer... - Does a 30 Amp Auto-Reset Breaker Have to be Mounted or Can it be LooseYou don't have to mount the circuit breaker such as # PK54530 if you don't want to. It would prevent it from moving around if it were mounted but won't affect how it works. So your plan of leaving it "loose" and wrapping it up in electrical tape will be fine.
view full answer... - Installing an Aftermarket Brake Controller on a 2011 Volvo XC90 with Factory Brake ControllerFrom the research I did it is possible that on your 2011 Volvo XC90, that the brake output pin located in the 5:00 position, if looking at the 7-Way, is actually connected to a dedicate brake light circuit. In order to install an aftermarket controller, you will need to follow these steps: First, use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 if needed to verify that there is voltage on that pin when you step on the brakes. If not, then see below for the second installation method. The wire on the...

The green wire is needed for the right turn and stop lights on the trailer. This wire will be connected to the number 6 pole in the 7-Way connector, which may be labeled red. The purple wire is usually wired to the center pole of the 7-Way...
view full answer... - Recommended Brake Controller And Wiring For 2004 Chevrolet BlazerThe brake controller I recommend is the P3, part # 90195. This is a proportional brake controller that applies the brakes with the same intensity as the brakes on the vehicle. It sounds like you have a 7-way trailer connector already installed. You will need to look at the back of the 7-way you said you have on your Blazer. If it has an adapter that looks like the photo I have attached then you can simply unplug the 7-way on your Blazer and use part # HM40975. The # HM40975 has a 4-way...

- Carpet Product Suitable for Lining Fender Wells of Enclosed TrailerWe do not custom-make any products here at etrailer but we do have CE Smith Deluxe Marine-Grade Carpeting # CE11330 which comes in a 12-foot roll that is 11-inches wide. This item is very close to your required dimensions so two rolls should get you covered (sorry, couldn't resist). We also offer this in charcoal grey # CE11372.

If you are using the factory wiring harness you will need to use the Brake Controller Wiring Adapter for Pre-Wired 2008 Ford Super Duty Vehicles, item # 3034-S, (also works on 2009). Vehicles not equipped with factory trailer tow package, may require...

First you will need a female 7-pin round # PK11720 and female 7-way blade # PK12-707E. Since the 7-pin round has separate brake and turn signals but a 7-way blade has combined you will need the the 3-wire to 2-wire converter # HM48847 like you mentioned. This will get connected to 7-way connector as follows: Red wire...

- Recommended Circuit Breaker for 12v Power on 7-WayThe Pollak Circuit Breaker - Cycling/Automatic Reset - 30 Amp - Straight Mount Bracket # PK54530 is the correct fit for a brake controller but we recommend the 40 amp # 9510 for the 12v Power wire to your 7-way. We do recommend using # 10-1-1 wire you referenced.

You may be able to purchase one from the vehicle dealer though. I spoke with my contact at Tekonsha and his advice is that you should take your Mercedes M Class vehicle to the dealer to have a brake controller installed. The Mercedes vehicles have very sensitive wiring and splicing into the brake circuit or power on the vehicle can cause issues. If you have wiring experience...

I can say that we typically recommend using either a 20A or 30A circuit breaker for the 12V power so if your manual says 30A then I would tend to lean that way. You can be 100% certain by disconnecting all of your wiring and removing those covers on the circuit breakers you should then be able to tell the rating as the circuit breakers...

- Can a Hopkins Brake Controller be Installed on a Motor Home Built on a Workhorse ChassisBrake controllers are not vehicle specific so you can install one on your motor home on the Workhorse chassis. Brake controller manufacturers do not offer fit information for motor homes (since there are so many makes and models). If your RV has a 7-Way trailer connector then all you will need is the brake controller of your choice, enough wire # 10-1-1, to reach from in the cab to the trailer connector and from the cab to vehicle battery, and a 30-amp circuit breaker # PK54530.

The blue wire will run to the trailer connector on the back of your vehicle. The black wire must run to your battery to power the brake controller. If your trailer has 1-2 axles, use a 20 amp circuit breaker, part # PK54520, for this power...
view full answer... - Should 5:00 Position of 7-Way on 2018 Ram 1500 Be ActiveThe 5:00 position of a 7-way is for a brake controller output circuit to activate trailer brakes which you'd have to have a controller installed on your 2018 Ram 1500 for that circuit to have voltage on it. You'd need a controller like the # TK63VR with the install harness part # 3024-P and that circuit would be active to control your trailer brakes.

- Is Adapter Available For 1999 Holiday Rambler On Ford ChassisI was unable to find information about your 1999 Holiday Rambler wiring. I recommend contacting a Holiday Rambler dealer and checking the owner's manual to determine if there is a plug for a brake controller. If there is no plug or tow package wiring, you will need to hardwire in your brake controller by using a part # ETBC7 kit, and another 20 feet of part # 10-2-1 wire. If you have a 7-Way plug, you can use about 40 feet of # 10-2-1 wire and a 30-amp circuit breaker, # PK54530. When...
