Curt Brake Controller Flashes Numbers when Braking and Not Towing with a 2011 Ram 1500
Question:
I just installed the Curt C24VV with wiring harness in my 2011 RAM 1500. While driving without a trailer, the adjustment sensitivity numbers constantly blink when I brake. Is this normal?

Expert Reply:
Curt brake controllers such as # C24VV can be very sensitive and it is not uncommon to get something on the display with no trailer attached. But what I recommend is to make sure the 7-Way connector at the back of the truck is clean and free of corrosion and moisture inside where the wires attach and outside on the pins. Corrosion or moisture can cause a short and cause the brake controller to do strange things.
