Typically a breakaway pin getting pulled does not prevent the trailer brakes from working after that. Check the condition of the connection between the battery wire of the breakaway kit and the output circuit that travels to the trailer brakes. I suspect the might be a short or some other damage to this circuit that caused a problem.
