Is Brake Light Relay Required when Installing Even Brake on a 2002 Chevy Trailblazer

Question:

on a 2002 Trailblazer the brake lights do come on without the key in the ignition so a relay would be required.

From what I was able to find out, you will not have to install the brake light relay, # RM-88400, when using the Even Brake, # RM-9400, and tow bar wiring on your 2002 Chevy Trailblazer. But the one way to verify this for sure is to get in the Trailblazer without the key in and step on the brake pedal. If the brake lights light up then you will need a brake light relay.

That is why it is always important to check! Thank you for getting back to us with that information. Your Even Brake supplemental braking system # RM-9400 should have come with the brake light relay. But if you need it separately it is # RM-88400.
