Helpful Expert Reply:

It does sound like your Activator brake controller # 5504 is set too aggressively. This can happen if you accidently bumped the controller and didn't realize it. If you adjust the Sync lever towards the front of the controller the brakes will be less aggressive. You can also adjust the output lever on the front of the controller more to the right.
