Troubleshooting Brake Controller that Doesn't Want to Activate Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator  

Question:

I have a2013 silverado hd and just bought a 07 mobil suites 5th wheel. I cant the hydraulic brakes on trailer to work. When i bought the 5th wheel they told me they checked the brakes to make sure they activate but did not actuall pull it. Is this common problem with chev trucks. I have heard that some do have problems.

Helpful Expert Reply:

Does your truck's brake controller have an electric over hydraulic mode, and is it in the mode? It sounds like you either don't have a compatible brake controller or you don't have it set in the correct mode for your brake style.

If you need a compatible brake controller the most popular option we offer is the P2 part # 90885.

I attached a help article that covers how to install the brake controller in your truck for you to check out as well.
